CALGARY — The Edmonton Elks have a little confidence. The Calgary Stampeders need some. The CFL's annual Battle of Alberta on Labour Day in Calgary features a pair of West Division clubs with gaps between themselves and a playoff spot.
The CFL's annual Battle of Alberta on Labour Day in Calgary features a pair of West Division clubs with gaps between themselves and a playoff spot.
Both clubs have time to salvage their 2023 campaigns with seven games remaining in their regular seasons, but the salvaging needs to start immediately. Overall, there's been an assortment of ill-timed gaffes, such as Javon Leake's punt return touchdown for Toronto in the fourth quarter last week to break a 31-31 tie and propel the Argonauts to 39-31 victory."When the games are going your way, you think you're going to win them all. When they're not going your way sometimes doubt can creep in. The only way I know how to get rid of that doubt is to start winning.
Dickenson labelled Maier's 387 passing yards and four touchdown throws in the loss to Toronto his quarterback's best game of the year. Ford started one game against Calgary in 2022, but sustained a season-ending collarbone injury during the first quarter. The 25-year-old from Niagara Falls, Ont., has been given another chance to prove he can be a CFL starter.
He threw for 317 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions, while also rushing for 74 yards and a TD in the 30-20 home win over the Redblacks last week.
