POWER RANKINGS

-

1 Calgary (1) With Bo Levi Mitchell off target, Calgary balanced its attack against Hamilton with 132 rushing yards and found a way to get it done on defence.

2 Edmonton (2) A come-from-behind win over Winnipeg again showed Mike Reilly’s steady hands late in a close game. He’s unflappabl­e.

3 Saskatchew­an (5) With pressure from Willie Jefferson and Charlston Hughes, the Riders front looks like it will produce plenty of sacks and hurries.

4 B.C. (6) QB Jonathon Jennings was good on 20-of-24 attempts, threw two TDs and no intercepti­ons in a win over Montreal. If he keeps that up, the Lions will be in the mix.

5 Toronto (3) In a road loss to the Riders, the Argos looked like a team that didn’t give its starting QB a single rep in pre-season. Ricky Ray had several layers of rust on him.

6 Hamilton (4) QB Jeremiah Masoli had the Ticats in position to steal one in Calgary, until he threw a fourth-quarter pick. Not good enough.

7 Ottawa (7) The Redblacks had the bye, stay in the seven slot.

8 Winnipeg (8) Rookie QB Chris Streveler, who tossed three TDs and two picks against Esks, is learning on the fly. That’s going to involve pain.

9 Montreal (9) After strong start against B.C., Als gave up too many sacks, took too many penalties and stopped giving ball to RB Tyrell Sutton.
