Bombers, Stamps rumble a can’t-miss must-win
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Calgary Stampeders and Saskatchewan Roughriders are facing off in a crucial must-win game. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are welcoming back their star player Zach Collaros, who returns after recovering from a head injury. The Winnipeg team is looking to lock in their best performance, as they've shown inconsistency throughout the season.
Calgary can clinch a playoff spot with a victory in this game. The Stampeders have been putting up a high scoring offense, averaging 35.8 points per game. Quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. is instrumental in their success, leading the CFL with 34 touchdown passes and a quarterback rating of 116.0. The Bombers have struggled without Collaros, going 2-4 during his absence.
Calgary has been dominating in recent meetings, winning five of their past seven games. The Bombers have made a change at centre, replacing rookie Tyler Elsbury with veteran Canadian Tui Eli. The Bombers have allowed the fewest passing yards and touchdowns in the league, but their secondary had a tough outing recently.
