Toronto Argonauts at Calgary Stampeders 8/7/21 - CFL Picks & Predictions
The Argonauts are coming back to this season after missing all of last year. Now, the Argonauts are also a team that would like to prove that they were unaffected by the lost season and continue to play strong here.
Now, one aspect that the Argonauts should have going for them is the fact that Nick Arbuckle is coming back to guide the team. Arbuckle has done amazing for other teams. That could come in major play here as Bethel-Thompson is coming back as well and could be challenged. In 2019 Bethel-Thompson threw for 4024 yards and 26 touchdowns, but only 13 picks.
Calgary is coming back to this game here after playing good in the years past. Now, the Stampeders are going to have to make up the difference in the lost time in practice and game play from last year.
Bo Mitchell is coming back to guide the Stampeders on the year. The last time that Mitchell was on the field for a full year he threw for 3464 yards. Mitchell threes for 19 touchdowns, but only 5 picks on the year. Arbuckle was the other quarterback for the Stampeders and he threw for 2103 yards and 11 touchdowns.
The game here will be a good one, but look for a lot of scoring on the day. Both of the offenses here are coming in quite a bit better than what the other teams have done. Look for the home field advantage to tip to the Stampeders here. Final Score Prediction, Calgary Stampeders win 45-24.
