Calgary Stampeders at Ottawa Redblacks Thursday, 7:30 p.m.

-

Calgary (3-0) returns from the bye Thursday night in Ottawa against the Redblacks (2-1) in a matchup of division leaders. The Stampeders are 16-0 coming off the bye since 2005, with their last loss following a bye week coming July 1 of that season when they hadn’t yet played a game. Calgary has outscored its opponents 567-346 over that span, winning by an average of 13.8 points and its last in-season, post-bye loss was in July 2004 at Montreal. Ottawa, meanwhile, returns to TD Place for the first time since winning its season opener 40-17 over the Saskatchew­an Roughrider­s on June 21. But Calgary has a 10-0 road record over its post-bye win streak. Prediction: Calgary
