The Rouge White & Blue CFL podcast Os Davis and Joe Pritchard

RWB CFL podcast #258: After week 1, (almost) everything is awesome
It happens every time to The Rouge, White & Blue CFL podcast as well as to fans, bettors and pundits: The realization that, during the propounding of preseason predictions, we all knew nextto nothing about many teams – or at least far less than we’d let on…So how are RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis feeling about one week’s worth of priceless information and CFL viewing? Listen in for their not-quite-so-hot takes from the rustiness of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to the audacity of the small-balling Calgary Stampeders, from the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ recurring battles with awful penalties to the Edmonton Elks’ struggles against the fourth quarter…
Naturally, the RWB talks CFL Pick ‘Em in week 2 (hey, Joe might’ve gone 4-0 were it not for loyalty) and fantasy football (and hey, Os pulled off quite the showing, ranking #31 overall on a monster week).
The Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast: So glad proper football is back!

Happy Opening Week to Canadian Football League enthusiasts! The Rouge, White & Blue gets our game on in the episode to (admittedly futilely) forecast the upcoming season.
First off, RWB co-hosts Os Davis and Joe Pritchard go long(-term) in picking division standing as well as win-loss records for each of the teams. Unlike previous seasons, there is much dissension between the two, who can really only agree  on a vision for two of the CFL’s nine teams.
Not only that, everyone’s favourite Sisyphean task during the regular season, i.e. making weekly selections in the league’s official “CFL Pick ‘Em” contest, has returned. Joe and Os get in their picks for week 1 and again mostly disagree on winners and losers. RWB’s got a passing look at the point spreads for opening week, particularly that insulting touchdown-plus’s worth of points the (*defending champion*) Montreal Alouettes are getting in Winnipeg, and the inexplicable positioning of the Saskatchewan Roughriders as an underdog at Edmonton.
CFL kickoff: It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

The 2024 Canadian Football League season has begun! Well, sort of … as of this recording of the Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast, one preseason game has been held – but that’s more than enough for RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis to speculate about the upcoming season, specifically within the framework of the league’s “Futures” competition.
Joe and Os take their shots at guessing the outcomes of ten futures – really player propositions and team props – including:
Which team will win the East?
Which team will win the West?
Who will lead the reg. season in interceptions?
Will a quarterback throw for 5,000 or more passing yards during the regular season?
Who will lead the league ein receiving TDs during the regular season?
Which team will have the most QB sacks during the regular season?
Over/under: Will Brady Oliveira rush for 1,299.5 yards during the regular season?
Which team will finish with the best regular season record?
How many kick/punt return TDs will be scored in total during the regular season?
And, of course, which team will win the Grey Cup?
Yes, the RWB does realize the futility, but it’s all in good fun until the games begin for real…
