Thursday - Saskatchewan at Calgary
Saskatchewan Notes: After not winning against the Stampeders since 1998, the Riders won in Week 2 and are heavily favored in this contest. QB Nealon Greene has seemingly made all the difference for the 3-1 Riders. He has thrown for 674 yards and at 99.6 efficiecncy, while running for another.
Saskatchewan Injured List: BOGLIN, Armand (LB), BUSH, Davin (DB), BUTLER, Ian (QB), JACKSON, Quincy (WR), MOORE, Andrew (OL), WHITE, Chris (DT)
Calgary Notes: After an eye injury sustained on his touchdown catch Travis Moore will miss one to two weeks of action. This leaves the Stampeders without their top three receivers from 2001, as Vince Danielsen retired and Marc Boerigter jumped to the Kansas City Chiefs. That leaves Don Blair, Ibrahim Tounkara, Kamau Peterson and Versey Gaddis left behind to get through the Riders defense.
Calgary Injured List: CARTER, Andrew (OL), JOHNSON, Robert (WR), LOUD, Kamil (WR), OOSTERHUIS, Jon (DL), POPE, O'Lester (OL)
