The BC Lions and Winnipeg Blue Bombers meet Thursday in CFL action at Princess Auto Stadium. Here’s a Blue Bombers vs Lions Prediction. This article will include a Blue Bombers vs Lions Pick.
The BC Lions need a win to rebound from a rough 1-5 start. The BC Lions have lost all 3 road games this season. Nathan Rourke is completing 71.3 percent of his passes for 1,403 yards, 5 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions. Justin Mcinnis and Keon Hatcher Sr. have combined for 858 receiving yards and 1 touchdown, while Jermaine Jackson has 18 receptions.
The BC Lions ground game is averaging 74.3 yards per contest, and James Butler leads the way with 296 yards and 4 touchdowns. Defensively, BC is allowing 30.3 points and 367 yards per game. Jackson Findlay leads the BC Lions with 34 tackles, Mathieu Betts has 5 sacks, and Darnell Sankey has 1 interception.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers look for a win after splitting their last 6 games. The Blue Bombers have lost 3 of their first 4 home games. Zach Collaros is completing 71.8 percent of his passes for 985 yards, 5 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. Nic Demski and Ontaria Wilson have combined for 946 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns, while Tim White has 32 receptions.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ ground game is averaging 94.6 yards per contest, and Brady Oliveira leads the way with 551 yards and 3 touchdowns. Defensively, Winnipeg is allowing 29.7 points and 381.7 yards per game. Tony Jones leads the Winnipeg Blue Bombers with 44 tackles, Jake Ceresna has 5 sacks, and Major Williams has 1 interception.
The Lions will be without Cristophe Beaulieu, Stanley Berryhill III, Jevon Cottoy, Joshua Donovan, Adam Konar, T.J. Lee, Garry Peters, Patrice Rene, and Nathan Rourke. James Butler is questionable with a foot injury.
Jarell Broxton, Stanley Bryant, Micah Vanterpool, Brady Oliveira, Nic Demski, and Nick Hallett are questionable for the Blue Bombers.
These are two banged-up teams that I’m not excited to back. However, it’s the Lions who are in worse shape, and their offense is nonexistent right now due to playing a backup quarterback. The Blue Bombers have a chance to get some guys back from injury, and they’re due for a breakout performance at home. The Lions aren’t winning and aren’t covering despite being underdogs week after week.
The Blue Bombers are 8-2 SU and ATS in the last 10 games against the Lions. Not a fan of the hook on top of the key number, but the Lions are too injured to back in this spot. Give me the Blue Bombers in a comfortble much needed victory.
