Look for a quarterback shootout here between Mike Reilly and Winnipeg's Matt Nichols.
The Eskimos are averaging more than 29 points a game with Reilly and rank No. 1 in yards gained. Reilly has thrown the third most touchdowns and third most yards in the CFL this season. Edmonton's offense should be even better with the expected return of offensive line starters Danny Groulx and Justin Soresnon. Also Duke Williams should be back. He's one of the Edmonton's better receivers.
Winnipeg gives up the second-most points in the CFL.
But the Blue Bombers are the No. 2 scoring team in the league with Nichols developing into a star. Winnipeg has scored 33 or more points in each of its last five games. Nichols catches a break in that the Eskimos have a cluster injury problem in their defensive line.
Note, too, the Over has cashed seven of the last eight times when the Blue Bombers have met a foe from the Western Division.
