Analysis
The Lions are coming into this game with a 1-0 record this season and they are coming off of a 31-14 win against the Elks in their 1st game. That game was both their season opener and their home opener which they played very well in, but they were also up against one of the weaker teams in the league. Now they are going up against a Blue Bombers team that is playing their season opener in this game after getting last week off, and this will also be their home opener so they are going to get up for this game. The Blue Bombers are always a competitive team in the league and they are coming off of a season which they lost in the Grey Cup to the Argos so they are going to be hungry to start the season with a good game. The Lions were great at home last week, but this is going to be their 1st road game of the season and they are going to struggle more in this game, especially since they have actually lost 6 of their last 7 road games going back to last season. Their offense has been much weaker in those games as they have failed to score 20 points in their last 2 as well as 4 of their last 6 road games, and their defense has been much worse as well, allowing 28+ points in 4 of their last 5 road games. The Lions were also awful against the Blue Bombers last season as they lost 2 of the 3 meetings against them, even getting shut out 25-0, and the 1 game they won was in Winnipeg by just 2 points. The Blue Bombers have a very good defense that is going to cause a lot of problems for this Lions offense on the road, and the Blue Bombers also have one of the better running backs in the league who led the CFL in rushing yards last season so they are going to lean on him in this game and that Lions defense was not really challenged on the ground by the Elks last week. The Blue Bombers will cover the spread in this game.
