Canadian Football League | Thursday June 22nd – Sunday June 25, 2023

 

BC Lions at Winnipeg Blue Bombers

CFL Odds: Lions +6; Blue Bombers -6 / Lions +188; Blue Bombers -235 / O/U 49
Thursday, June 22 at 8:30 pm ET
IG Field | Manitoba, Canada

The Blue Bombers have been putting the league on notice with how they have scored points during the first two weeks. Winnipeg has scored a league-high 87 points and opened with two convincing victories. BC has missed opportunities to put up big numbers on offense but has been balanced out by a strong defense.

The Lions have only allowed 15 points this season but did have the benefit of playing a weak Edmonton Elks team last week.BC also has a dual-threat quarterback in Vernon Adams Jr. the Lions will need to be more efficient finishing drives if they want to win a championship. BC won’t win this one but will make Winnipeg sweat.

Montreal Alouettes at Hamilton Tiger-Cats 

CFL Odds: Alouettes +2; Tiger-Cats -2 / Alouettes +115; Tiger-Cats -141 / O/U 44
Friday, June 23 at 7:30 pm ET
Tim Hortons Field | Ontario, Canada

The Tiger-Cats were expecting to make a run at the playoffs in the East Division this season. However, Hamilton will need to find a spark defensively sooner rather than later. The Tiger-Cats have allowed 74 points in a pair of double-digit losses to start the season. 

Montreal opened the season by grinding out a 19-12 win over the Ottawa Redblacks. The Alouettes intercepted three passes against Ottawa in its season opener. Cody Farajado passed for 261 yards for Montreal in its season-opener. The Alouettes are catching Hamilton at the right time.

Saskatchewan Roughriders at Calgary Stampeders

CFL Odds: Roughriders +3.5; Stampeders -3.5 / Roughriders +143; Stampeders -176 / O/U 45.5
Saturday, June 24 at 7:00 pm ET
McMahon Stadium | Alberta, Canada

The Roughriders were buoyed in Week 1 by escaping with a narrow win over Edmonton. Saskatchewan quarterback Trevor Harris is already banged up and could miss some time. The Roughriders, who have already had some struggles on offense, will need to make some adjustments.

Calgary bounced back from a loss in Week 1 by grabbing an 11-point win over Ottawa last week. The Stampeders’ offense was able to lean on their strong offense last week. Calgary had two wide receivers — Reggie Belton (141 yards) and Malik Henry (108) — each went over the century mark for the Stampeders. Calgary should be able to find a way to make plays and grab a win.

Toronto Argonauts at Edmonton Elks

CFL Odds: Argonauts -6.5; Elks +6.5 / Argonauts -265; Elks +208 / O/U 44.5
Sunday, June 25 at 7:00 pm ET
Commonwealth Stadium | Alberta, Canada

The Argonauts, who are defending Grey Cup champions, kicked off their title defense in the right way. Toronto moved the ball well behind quarterback Chad Kelly, who led the Argonauts to an 18-point victory. Edmonton hasn’t had much success to show for its effort this season. 

The Elks have only scored 10 points in the first two weeks. Edmonton hasn’t been good at home over the past two seasons and isn’t likely to slow down Toronto. The Argonauts will win this game comfortably.
