POWER RANKINGS

CALGARY (1)

Swarming defence props up misfiring offence until QB Bo Levi Mitchell stops overthrowing his receivers and the ground game kicks in.

HAMILTON (3)

They’re getting it done with Masoli’s quarterbacking, performances from Canadian running backs and defence.

EDMONTON (4)

Overcame a dreadful start at home against B.C. because their much defence stiffened early to limit damage.

OTTAWA (2)

Ball control was a massive problem in a loss to Calgarythat killed any hopes for a comeback.

B.C. (5)

The Lions can hang with the middle of the pack crowd, but serious growing pains on defence mean they will continue to struggle.

WINNIPEG (7)

The Bombers went 30 minutes against the Tabbies without a first down. That said, it would be great if the defence could tighten up. SASKATCHEWAN (6)

The Riders have major problems at QB and with Duron Carter, who was exposed on the corner and played only a few ineffective snaps at receiver.

TORONTO (8)

The Argonauts are reeling from an 0-2 start and the neck injury to QB Ricky Ray. They will hand the ball to largely untested QB James Franklin.

MONTREAL (9)

The Als put up 23 points behind a solid start by Drew Willy in Regina, but he was sent to the sidelines after a helmet to helmet hit.
