The Winnipeg Blue Bombers defense has looked vulnerable this season and ranks seventh in the league in opponent yards per play (6.5). While the Bombers are coming off a game where they held the Alouettes to just three points they gave up 363 yards in that contest and messy weather suppressed scoring for both sides. 
The Blue Bombers have given up at least 27 points in each of their first three games, getting shredded by the Lions in Week 3 and giving up 413 passing yards to Trevor Harris in Week 2. 
The Calgary Stampeders offense struggled in Week 1 against the Lions but we have since seen how stingy that BC stop unit can be. The Stamps bounced back with 426 yards and 26 points in Week 2 and then had another 26-point performance a week later while totaling 410 yards.
Calgary quarterback Jake Maier looked terrible in the season opener but the Leos were also able to shut down Bombers MOP passer Zach Collaros a couple of weeks ago. Maier was much more effective over the last two weeks averaging 310 passing yards per game while throwing for four touchdowns.
Maier also has a strong track record against the Bombers, putting together some solid starts against them over the last few years.
While last year's CFL-leading rusher Ka'Deem Carey continues to be sidelined by an injury, backup running back Dedrick Mills has looked terrific and Calgary's offensive line is also starting to gel after replacing both starting tackles in the offseason. The Stamps might not necessarily torch the Bombers but they'll be well prepared coming off a bye and should be able to eclipse their modest team total on Friday.   My best bet: Stampeders Team Total Over 17.5 (-112 at BetRegal) Stampeders vs Blue Bombers same-game parlay Stampeders Team Total Over 18.5
Reggie Begelton Over 57.5 receiving yards
Dedrick Mills Over 59.5 rushing yards The Stamps team total is a bit higher at FanDuel than at bet365 and BetRegal but you are able to use it with a parlay that makes plenty of sense if you're fading Winnipeg's defense. 
Begelton had a career-high 1,444 receiving yards with the Stamps in 2019 before missing most of the 2021 season due to being on the practice squad for the Packers. He had 957 receiving yards last year and reeled in eight catches for 141 yards in Week 2. Begelton missed Week 3 with a rib injury but will be back in the lineup on Friday after practicing all week. 
Calgary is thin at wide receiver with Luther Hakunavanhu, Malik Henry, and Jalen Philpot all on the IL. That should make it even more likely that Maier will target Begelton and Tre Odoms-Dukes in the passing game. 
The Stamps are also banged up at running back with Carey and backup Peyton Logan sidelined with injuries. However, Mills has been fantastic rushing for 102 yards on 19 carries in Week 2 and rumbling for 74 yards on 14 car...
