Tre Ford is completing 71.4 percent of his passes for 486 yards, 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions.

Winnipeg Blue Bombers Betting Preview
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers look for another win to remain undefeated. The Blue Bombers have won 11 of their last 12 regular season games. Chris Streveler is completing 62.5 percent of his passes for 246 yards, 3 touchdowns and 1 interception.

Blue Bombers vs Elks Prediction
The Blue Bombers are obviously the better team and as I mentioned last week, the Elks have been notorious slow starters and this season is no different. A blowout win for the Blue Bombers wouldn’t be surprising. However, the Elks have covered five of their last six games as a double-digit underdog, while the Blue Bombers have failed to cover their last four games as a double-digit favorite. The Elks were more competitive in their last effort, and their defense has nowhere to go but up. We’re getting a hook on top of 10 free points. I’ll take a stab with the Elks and the points on Thursday night.
