The Crows need two wins and lots of help to make the playoffs, while the Talons are currently in a 3-way tie for the final wild card spot in the Western Conference. Crows' RB Archie Chasser is a unique combination of speed and power, while Talons' RB "Muddy Waters" Raffo is a threat to take any handoff the distance. These are the two best young RBs in the CFL. Offensive tackle David Binkley has started 94 consectutive games for the Talons but will miss this game due to a knee injury. The Talon secondary is also banged up, with FS Seymour Horgan out and CB Damon Jankowski doubtful.</p><span class="GoTWNotes">Weather forecast: 16 degrees, fair.<br>Point spread: Albany by

A very very important game for us. I just am not sure if we can squeak out the win...we are very banged up right now. Ah well Muddy Waters might come through and get 200+ yards again.

Weird angle on that Chasser pic...

Great feature as always.

'tis nice to see Flowers get some recognition. Him and Manos are having incredible seasons for the Vamps.
