Hopefully the Stamps are well rested after the bye week as they need to win Labor Day bad.

3 meetings with the Elks - probably need to take 2 of 3.
Split with the Riders.
Als, Lions, Ticats - take 2 of 3.
Best case scenario, finish 9-9.
8-10 might be enough to get in, but I wouldn't count on it.

There are a lot of divisional games down the stretch and that should help. Divisional games left by each team...
BC: 2
Sask: 6
Winnipeg: 4
Edmonton: 6
Stamps: 6

3rd place in the East has more wins than 1st place in the West, despite playing 1 fewer game.

This really shouldn't be surprising when you look at the current state of western teams. BC hit the skids when VA got injured or they would probably be comfortably out front. The Bombers are getting old and Collaros is having a poor season. The Riders hedged their bets on a 38 year old injury prone QB that's never been a winner. Stamps have a mediocre QB and roster. The Elks had Chris Jones running the team into the ground.

8-10 is always good enough to make it. 7-11 is dicey but will too. Going 6-12 and making it is an incredible misnomer. They may get 7 wins this year. Anything above is bonus. Until they improve their QB and OC play calling, this is what they are - very mediocre

I agree with this, I will just add more than anything they need improved o-line and d-line play.

Vaughters has been disappointing this season. He seemed to really come on last year right before he got hurt. Not sure if the injury is still an issue but a guy with his pedigree should be more noticeable.

Good interview with Chandler Worthy, he has a film in pre-production that the NFL appears to be backing financially. Worth a watch.

Montreal has signed Austin Mack through 2028. Thinking was Weston Dressler was the last non-QB to sign a contract that long?

Betts made it through NFL waivers unclaimed and is now a free agent. 3DownNation is reporting that he's evaluating his options on both sides of the border.

That’ll be an expensive contract.

8-10 will get in easily, imo. The last time a team with 8 or more wins didn't make it was 2018, when the Esks went 9-9 and that was last place in the west. BC was also 9-9 and crossed over.
I think you can pencil in a loss vs the 11-1 Als, but the TiCats and Elks are both bad - should be able to take 3 out of 4 there.
That leaves 2 vs Riders and 1 vs Lions. Even 1 out of 3 there gets them to 8-10 which I think will be enough, especially if they win vs BC and thus have the tie-breaker there.
BC has one more win (in one more game) but they have a much harder schedule. 2 Als, 1 Redblacks, 1 Argos, 1 Riders. Those are the 4 best records in the league. The only games they have left against sub-500 teams are the Stamps and Ticats.
By comparison, the stamps have 3 games left against 500+ teams, and 5 games left against sub-500 teams, including 4 against the bottom-feeder Elks/TiCats.
