With the 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame Game in the books, the football focus shifts back to the CFL this weekend with three more games on tap. If last night’s result is any indication, we should expect at least one more upset in the CFL this weekend. This is the Morning Coffee for Friday August 2nd, 2024.
Shea Patterson - The Canadian PressThe Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2024 will be enshrined at the Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton, Ohio on Saturday.
While we can’t confirm how the final 18:51 of game action would have played out, I have to believe that anybody who had a bet on the Texans to win had to feel fortunate that the game was called and full-game bets at FanDuel were ultimately voided based on how that second half was trending. We also got our first look at the depth in a pair of loaded wide receiver cores for both teams, with standout performances by Houston’s Xavier Hutchinson and Chicago’s Collin Johnson.
If last night’s result is any indication, we should expect at least one more upset in the CFL this weekend.Two CFL Betting Trends To Consider For This Weekend’s GamesDespite that trend, 60 per cent of the bets at FanDuel were on the BC Lions to cover as a 4.5-point favourite against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Thursday Night Football.Unfortunately for the betting public, the Bombers responded with their best effort of the entire season in a 25-0 win in front of their home fans.
Considering the Bombers were just 1-7 against the spread entering Week 9, it makes sense that the betting public was all over the Lions to win and cover.It’s a long season and a lot can change between now and November. As I highlighted in this column a couple of weeks ago, I’ve never considered writing off the pre-season favourite to win the Grey Cup, even as the Bombers’ odds to win it all have continued to lengthen in recent weeks.It’s a long CFL season and except for the Edmonton Elks, the overall parity has been one of the biggest stories from the first half.
