Winnipeg +11½ over MONTREAL
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers could be the most undervalued team in the CFL. Sitting at 2-5, it is easy to see why its stock is so low but a turnaround appears imminent and tonight’s matchup could be a step in the right direction. Steven Jyles will start tonight and he’s a far better option than Buck Pierce as Pierce’s fragile frame leaves instability under center. Jyles relieved Pierce last week and despite going 14-22 for 229 yards, the Bombers were simply too far behind to make a comeback against the Ti-Cats. Jyles has been steady having not thrown a pick since his first start and he also owns the second-best QB-efficiency rating in the CFL. While the Bombers offense has underachieved, it remains a talented group. After getting rocked last week in a game they were favored by 4½, they’re now getting 11½ in Montreal, which is a pointspread turnaround of 15-points. The Alouettes might be the most overvalued team in the league. Most expect them to bounce back from a rather embarrassing loss to the Argos but don’t count on it. They’ve been quite average all year and have performed miserably for six straight quarters now. The Als are 5-2 but could just as easily be 2-5 after very close calls against B.C., Edmonton and Saskatchewan. The Montreal’s defense is weaker than it’s been in years and that should allow Jyles and this potentially potent Bomber offense many scoring opportunities. Jyles and the Bombers have been a missed pass away from pulling off two upsets this season, one against the TiCats and one against the Stampeders and they could be in a similar situation tonight. Upset possibility but the points are extremely juicy. Overlay. Play: Winnipeg +11½ (Risking 2.2 units to win 2).
