The Blue Bombers Vs Stampeders Game Prediction!
The Pick: Stampeders -4.5
While the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Calgary Stampeders are about to face off for the third time in six weeks, this rematch is unlikely to change the current trajectory. The Stampeders have dominated the last two games, largely due to the Bombers season-long struggle with turnovers.
Winnipeg has been playing sloppy football all year, and their luck is likely to run out against a Stampeders defense that has been a league leader. With Calgary's star quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. returning to the lineup, their balanced offense should easily expose Winnipeg's vulnerable defense. It seems the Stampeders are well-positioned to complete a clean sweep.
