RWB CFL podcast #268: Sweep! Sweeeeeeeeep!

The Rouge White & Blue CFL podcast

Once again, Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast co-hosts talk an anomalous sweep in the Canadian Football League – Just three weeks after an exceptionally rare 4-0 showing by the four East division teams, week 11 saw the visitors sweep the homedogs. RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis can’t decide which is more amazing: The visitors sweeping or Os going 4-0 in CFL Pick ‘Em.

Or maybe it’s the way the West has become the East, not to mention how suddenly the 3rd-place Winnipeg Blue Bombers and 5th-place Edmonton Elks look more like playoff contenders than the BC Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Adding intrigue to the league outside the lines were moves like the Hamilton Tiger-Cats hiring of Chris Jones (!) to the position of defensive coordinator; public appearances by brand new Edmonton *Elks* owner Larry Thompson and the concomitant will-he-won’t-he speculation surrounding the brand; and the imminent return of Chad Kelly for the Toronto Argonauts.

Otherwise, week 11 of the 2024 season was one of quarterback comebacks: Some quite good, some not so good, some quite amazing but not enough to overcome their own special teams…

Plus predictions for CFL Pick ‘Em (Did we mention Os went 4-0 last week? That means you’ll be fading this week, most likely…) and certainly something else.
