There's only 1 playoff spot still up for grabs.
The Riders and Stamps are both in contention for 3rd in the West, and their head-to-head on Friday could be decisive. If the Riders win, they're headed to the playoffs. The Stamps would have to win that match and then make up 1 more win over the Riders in the last 2 weeks to make the playoffs.
But the Riders haven't won since Labour Day - a 5-game losing streak. Their defence has been weak, allowing 30+ points in each match. It should be a fun match between the two rivals!
I'm surprised the Stamps still have an outside chance. But, with the Riders slumping it is possible. Should be an interesting game for sure.
Yeah, it's definitely the most interesting game of the weekend that's for sure :P. I'm not super familiar with the Stamps, but I believe they've fallen short of expectations this year. How much of that is on Maier, and do you think he's likely to be their starting QB next year?
He'll be their starting quarterback unless, of course, they find somebody else that they think will be better. Maier hasn't been great, but he's hardly the sole reason the Stamps have played poorly. Lots of injuries, questionable play calling, questionable pass protection, questionable receiving all plays a part.
