Roughriders at Blue Bombers 9/7/19 - CFL Picks & Predictions

The Roughriders are going to face the Blue Bombers again this week. Last week actually ended up being a lot closer of a game than what a lot of people thought it would. The game was one that saw the Roughriders have to hold off a late charge as they led the game most of the time, but the Blue Bombers tried to come back with a touchdown in the 4th quarter. However, the Roughriders were able to top the game off with a 19-17 win.

The Roughriders in the game were led by Cody Fajardo who threw for 300 yards and a touchdown. The downside is Fajardo did throw 2 picks in the game. William Powell was the leading rusher for the Roughriders with 8 carries for 59 yards.

Offensively the Blue Bombers were led in the passing game by Chris Streveler. He did not do that well with 161 yards, but he had a touchdown. Sadly, he did throw a couple of picks in the game as well. The rushing attack was led by Johnny Augustine with 12 carries for 98 yards in the game.

The Blue Bombers offense has to improve if they want to have a chance of bringing home a win in this game. The downside is the Blue Bombers offense looked a little bit lost in the last game and could have some problems in getting the ball through the Roughriders defense again. The Roughriders, if they can avoid all the picks, will have a good chance in this game. Final Score Prediction, Saskatchewan Roughriders win 24-17.
