CFL Power Rankings 2012 Week 15

1. BC Lions
They beat a good team in Calgary in the battle of the non-import running backs and despite injuries. With the Alouettes flaming out, the Lions are unchallenged atop the CFL.
2. Saskatchewan Rough Riders
I'm not sure how long it will last, but the Riders are hot, coming off a dismantling of the Argos at Dead Ted's Dome.
3. Calgary Stampeders
Lost a relatively close one to the Lions. Good but not great team. Should stick with Kevin Glenn, as Jon Cornish covers up Glenn's deficits.
4. Montreal Alouettes
Have the wheels fallen off the Alouette autobus? Is this the beginning of the end for Calvillo? Montreal should be glad they're in the Eastern Conference.
5. Toronto Argonauts
Didn't look good against Saskatchewan, but Ricky Ray will hopefully be back soon. If not, there will be sliding down this list.
6. Edmonton Eskimos
Won on the road when they needed to, in a pretty much must win game. The team can't feel particularly confident with Kerry Joseph as the quarterback, but sometimes you have to make due with the players you have.
7. Hamilton Tiger-Cats
Lost the game that would have put them in the driver's seat for the last playoff spot in the East and now have to play the best team in the league. Some games the offence is enough to overcome, mediocre defence, most games it's not.
8. Winnipeg Blue Bombers
Woohoo Joey Elliot! Road win at a tough stadium for a visiting team to win in. Maybe the Bombers would be better off without the Buck Pierce will he or won't he play sideshow and have Elliot continue working on chemistry with his receivers for next year.
