Blue Bombers Put an End to Alouettes' Seven-Game Win Streak with 44-28 Beatdown
Montreal enters with a 9-1 record and the league’s top passing attack, while Winnipeg tries to rebound from three losses in four games.
On Friday night, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers face the CFL-leading Montreal Alouettes in a Week 13 matchup representing their toughest test yet.
Winnipeg's recent loss to the Edmonton Elks, which included blowing a 16-0 lead, marks their third defeat in four games.
Montreal quarterback Davis Alexander paces the league with 3,400 passing yards and a 124.5 efficiency rating, testing a Winnipeg defense allowing the lowest completion percentage in the league.
Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea stated, "When you play a team like Montreal, you got to play better," emphasizing the need for cleaner execution.
Montreal can clinch a playoff spot this week with a victory and a Hamilton loss to Calgary, extending their seven-game win streak.
