Saskatchewan Roughriders head into Commonwealth Stadium this weekend to take on the Eskimos in this week 2 CFL match-up. The odds makers have Edmonton as a huge 11 point favorite while the total line is posted at 49.

Saskatchewan only won three games in 2015 and the way it played in last week’s season opener against Toronto it could be another long season for this team. Quarterback Darian Durant is back under center after missing just about all of last season due to injury. He ran up some pretty big numbers last week with 310 yards passing and a touchdown throw, but the Roughriders’ defense looked out of sync from the opening kickoff.

The Eskimos had an early bye last week following a wild 45-37 loss to Ottawa in Week 1 as 6.5-point home favorites. They will look to Mike Reilly and a duo of receivers in Adarius Bowman and Derel Walker to get their first win of the season this Friday night. Bowman and Walker combined for 16 receptions for 255 yards in that overtime loss with Reilly throwing for 383 yards overall.
