Blue Bombers vs Redblacks Prediction
The Blue Bombers are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re the better team on paper and at home, but I don’t know how you lay chalk with a club hats lost four of their last five games. The Blue Bombers have been getting drilled defensively in all of these losses.
The Redblacks have burned holes in pockets over the years and aren’t good from top to bottom, but they’ve won two straight games and have shown life on offense. If the Blue Bombers keep struggling to get stops, the Redblacks could have a field day based on what we’ve seen in the last two weeks. I’ll take a shot with the points.
