Week 16 picks https://doorfliesopen.com/2026/09/17/cfl-beat-277/ https://3downnation.com/2026/09/17/3downnation-cfl-picks-straight-up-against-the-spread-week-16-2/ My picks... Als (road) over Ticats - The Ticats have yet to solve their quarterback questions. Elks (road) over Scullers - The Elks are the better team, but both teams have been inconsistent. It's possible that the Argos could win at home if they have one of their good games while the Elks have one of their bad games. Stamps (home) over Redblacks - The Redblacks are getting better while the Stampeders are getting worse, so it's possible that the Redblacks could surprise. It now looks like the Redblacks have a shot at winning only against the Stampeders and the Tiger-Cats. But I'm not going to pick them to do something they haven't done yet. ***** Game Notes https://cfl.ca/article/cfl-ca-game-notes-what-are-the-numbers-saying-ahead-of-week-16 ***** Punting analysis https://cfl.ca/article/could-cfl-punters-rewrite-the-record-books-in-2026
