Tiger-Cats at Eskimos 6/22/18 - CFL Picks & Predictions

Following a tough opening loss to Calgary, things do not get easier for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (0-1) as they travel to Edmonton to battle the Eskimos. Jeremiah Masoli was outstanding in the Week 1 loss to Calgary and threw for 344 yards and 1 interception. Talk of Johnny Manziel taking over will have to wait at least another week in Hamilton.

Derel Walker was the CFL's Top Receiver in Week 1 and caught 8 receptions for 176 yards and 1 touchdown for the Eskimos. Kenny Stafford is an additional receiving option for the Eskimos and caught 5 passes for 69 yards. CJ Gable was quiet on the ground for the Eskimos in Week 1 and only ran the ball 9 times for 40 yards, but did manage 2 touchdowns.

Ton of hype surrounding Hamilton opener but Tiger-Cats couldn't cash in on road last week, but this week the pressure is off and Hamilton plays much better. Not sure if Tiger-Cats have enough for win but love this game to be closer than the betting line suggests. Final Score Prediction, Edmonton Eskimos win but fall short ATS 26-24.
