The Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Toronto Argonauts are playing live on the CFL schedule this week and the teams start Canadian Football League coverage from ESPN and it will be on WatchESPN with a live stream starting up past 7:30 pm ET and the matchup is live from Rogers Centre in Ontario as the Bombers try and keep their strong play going.
Quarterback Drew Willy has been playing well this season and he is one reason why the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are 5-2 on the year. The team comes in against Toronto and the Argonauts are 4-2 on the season and these two teams come in after playing earlier in the season in June and that game was in Winnipeg. The matchup saw Winnipeg score 45 points and they won big and now the team will try and do the same this week.
The Argonauts are looking to get back into shape this week and they would like to get some revenge after the thrashing last time these two teams played and that was back in Week 1. While the score was pretty bad, the game was even worse and the team was down 24-0 by the time the second came and now Willy and Ricky Ray will play again and this time the Argonauts are looking to at least keep things close. The Blue Bombers have played well on the road and they are undefeated in three games this year on the road.
Willy had a strong game in that matchup and he had over 300 yards and four touchdowns, while Ray was solid as well, passing for over 280 with two TDs. Steve Slaton is coming in looking to play well for Toronto and he had a very solid career in college and has the chance to make an impact, while Willy is the top player to keep an eye on for the Blue Bombers and he has been very good this season and nearly has 2,000 yards already.
Winnipeg is tied at the top of the west division with 10 points with Calgary and Edmonton and those three teams have been the best in the league so far this season. The west has been much better than the east and they are looking to keep that going and Winnipeg comes in on a one game losing streak and they have five wins in seven games and they have scored the most points of anyone in the league, but they have also allowed the most.
Toronto is dealing with some major injuries on offense and they will try to overcome that to get a two game winning streak going. The team is 1-3 on the road and they come in with a 2-4 record and they are atop the east standings with four points. Winnipeg comes in after losing to Saskatchewan and that was on the road and now the team has the chance to bounce back with games against Toronto and Montreal.
