Extra motivation will come for the Bombers in this game as well as they try to win one for Richard Harris – their Assistant Coach who passed away on Tuesday.

BC was one of the favorites to contend for the Western Conference Title this season but an 0-4 start has derailed their aspirations for the time being. The offense has been OK but the defense has been absolutely dreadful – 30 points allowed in all three games and an average of 438 yards allowed in those games. [ad-4437448]

Winnipeg has demonstrated an unexpected balance so far this season – the defense is allowing just 293 yards per game and the offense is coming off its best game of the season – Buck Pierce was 22 of 27 for 361 yards and three touchdowns last week.

Winnipeg has been solid on both sides of the ball this season and is a handful for any team.

The BC Lions have fared very well against Winnipeg in the last few seasons and are 4-1 ATS in their last five trips to Canad Inns Stadium. But this is a different Winnipeg team – competitive in absolutely every aspect of the game.

That combined with the extra motivation that the death of their beloved coach makes the Bombers a solid choice this week.

The fact is that BC just can’t stop anyone!

The Under is 9-2 in the last 11 meetings between the clubs.

Week 2 Parlay with Hamilton Tiger-Cats +3.5
