I think the CFL has basically been split into two tiers this season. It's been tough to rank the upper tier (cgy, wpg, sask, ham, and yes, I think mtl) because there are mixed results within that group. So you have to expect that the chatter is going to be focused on what happened recently.
But if you want to keep it simple, here are the records of the upper tier since labour Day:
cgy: 4-0
Sask: 3-1
ham: 3-1
mtl: 2-2
wpg: 1-3
Not hard to see why people are down on the bombers right now. But I still believe they fully deserve to be considered in the upper-tier, and they have plenty of opportunities to prove you right the rest of the year. They only play the good teams from here on out.
