CFL Chaos: Injuries Shake Up League Standings

The CFL season has taken an unexpected turn, with injuries and inconsistent form reshaping the competitive balance. From the struggling Montreal Alouettes to the surging BC Lions, every game now carries higher stakes for both teams and bettors.

Key Takeaways

• Montreal Alouettes are on a three-game skid, down to their fourth QB in four weeks.
• The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are favored against the injury-hit Alouettes.
• Ottawa RedBlacks face uncertainty with QB Dru Brown sidelined.
• BC Lions and Roughriders remain consistent performers, while Toronto Argonauts continue to falter.

Alouettes’ Quarterback Crisis

Montreal’s season has been derailed by injuries, with three quarterbacks sidelined and the team forced to rely on a fourth in as many weeks. The result has been a three-game losing streak that has left them vulnerable in the standings.

Matchups to Watch

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are expected to capitalize on Montreal’s woes in their upcoming matchup. Meanwhile, Ottawa’s playoff push may be threatened by uncertainty at quarterback if Dru Brown remains out. The RedBlacks’ clash with Edmonton is shaping up as a pivotal contest.

Consistency at the Top

In sharp contrast, the BC Lions have scored at least 27 points in five straight games, while the Roughriders lead the league in several key statistical categories. The Toronto Argonauts, however, remain at the bottom with the CFL’s worst record.
