Edmonton Eskimos 2008 Cfl overview Edmonton Eskimos 2008 CFL preview
The city of Edmonton is known as the city of champions, because of the success of the Edmonton Eskimos and Edmonton Oilers of prior years. However, the Edmonton Eskimos were anything but champions last season, because they missed the playoffs for the first time in 34 years. One thing with the Edmonton Eskimos, they have always been successful in their organization and QB Ricky Ray will need to stay healthy if the Eskimos plan to make a playoff run this season, as Jason Maas and Tyler Donovan from Wisconsin are the backups. To view a bookmaker is Russian roulette to a line on the Eskimos in recent seasons, as they have been a Jekyll and Hyde type team, as they have at home, but disappear on road. In fact, over the last 3 seasons, the Eskimos are 16-11-1 SU at home and 10-19 SU on the road. From a bookmaker perspective, their greatest task is to adjust the line after the Eskimos come to a great victory and scored 30 points or more in their final resting place, as the Eskimos are 8-15 SU on the road at that point in the last five years.
If you want a good place to play against the Edmonton Eskimos this season, I suggest you try to catch them as a favorite Road, just released a win at home because they are 3-7-0 ATS this situation the last 5 years. The reason for this thinking believes that the Eskimos are getting better as a team and have turned the corner. Plus, a point spread point of view, they have impressed the bookies enough to make it a favorite on the road in the next game. However, the Eskimos have been inconsistent in recent years and they are a good team of Go-cons in this situation in my opinion.
The bright spot on the Edmonton Eskimos QB Ricky Ray has them and they should focus on him a little help. The Eskimos defense has not really live up to its potential and they have one of the worst secondary in the league. The Eskimos have no problem putting up points, but their defense that allows too many cons. The Eskimos have played in most games that have in total over the past 5 years, as the OVER is 49-46-1 in Edmonton. In fact, Edmonton and Winnipeg are the only two teams to the O / U for the title of the last 5 years, like all other teams have seen more games go under the posted total.

Value Index The Edmonton Eskimos play on a grass field at Commonwealth Stadium and one would think they would have difficulty adjusting to playing in a dome like BC Place Stadium and the Rogers Centre in Toronto. However, it is the opposite of a pointspread perspective, such as Eskimos are 21-10-0 ATS combined from both sites. If you are looking for value when you are in Paris a game that involves the Edmonton Eskimos in domes, you can treat them as dogs away in British Columbia and Toronto. In fact, since 1996, the Eskimos are 9-3-1 ATS against the Argonauts at the Rogers Centre. Also, keep an eye on t. when
