<p>The Stampeders will travel to Ottawa to take on the RedBlacks at TD Place Stadium on Friday night in Week 3 CFL action. The bookies have opened this match at pick’em with a total line of 53 points.</p>
<p>Last week’s thrashing of Winnipeg looked more like the Calgary team that opened the season as second-favorites to win it all this year following that stunning loss to BC on opening day. The Stampeders got a big effort from its defense and Bo Levi Mitchell threw for 309 yards and two scores in that win. Running back Jerome Messam added 137 yards on the ground while averaging 8.6 yards a carry to give an added dimension to an already potent offense.</p>
<p>The RedBlacks moved to 2-0 on the year both SU and ATS with a lopsided 28-13 victory against Montreal in a game that closed as a PICK. In two road games this season, Ottawa has now racked-up 73 points. Quarterback Henry Burris will spend the next few weeks on the IR list with a hand injury, but the RedBlacks have not skipped a beat with Trevor Harris at the helm. He leads the CFL with 687 yards passing and six touchdown throws.</p>
