CFL Future Playoff Bets require thinking a bit creatively. Thanks to MyBookie online betting sportsbook, there are always some different options to bet on in October. Sometimes looking up to Canada is a welcome departure for sports other than hockey. The CFL’s “favorite” is Winnipeg for the third year. Are there any other teams that carry value? Could we be picking Winnipeg anyway to win the Grey Cup again? Below is our table.
2022 CFL Futures October | ||
---|---|---|
Winnipeg Blue Bombers | +119 | +125 |
Toronto Argonauts | +350 | +425 |
British Columbia Lions | +370 | +450 |
Calgary Stampeders | +650 | +450 |
Montreal Alouettes | +700 | +850 |
Hamilton Tiger-Cats | +1200 | +1000 |
Saskatchewan Roughriders | +5000 | +2000 |
Winnipeg tops the CFL Future Playoff Bets. Granted, the regular season still has one week left to go, but some teams have clinched a playoff spot. In Winnipeg’s case, they have won 14 of 17 games so far and have qualified for the top seed. The Blue Bombers will have home-field advantage until the Grey Cup takes place on November 20th. Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan, will host the 109th edition of the event.
The Blue Bombers are an easy and obvious choice because they will have the easiest ride in November when it turns windy and colder in the Manitoba prairies. Besides a few small bumps in the road, the Blue Bombers have beaten every team at least once. Winnipeg lost to British Columbia in Week 19, but honestly, the team has little or nothing to play for.
So, Winnipeg figures to extend a few more players over the next several weeks and months. The Blue Bombers are tying up loose ends as they prepare for a third playoff run. Can they pull off the three-peat? That is the big question. With their quarterback signed, the logic dictates that some linemen and wide receivers are up next. Winnipeg has shown an ability to easily defeat teams when they get down to business and play some football.
Therefore, CFL Future Playoff Bets focuses on the inevitable questions. Can Winnipeg finish off this incredible season? Could there be that dreaded surprise team or two lurking in the shadows? Here at VegasBetting, a couple of teams might be able to prevent the Blue Bombers from claiming glory again.
Winnipeg and the CFL Future Playoff Bets still have the Blue Bombers right around Even. This team is still human, and just a few mistakes could derail their hopes. The most important thing for Winnipeg is to rest their starters and play them only as needed for Week 21. On any given CFL weekend, a team can spring an upset. Hamilton is trying to hold off Saskatchewan. Both teams are 6-10 on the season. That is the final spot up for grabs.
The other hope is that Winnipeg gets pushed by a team like British Columbia. Calgary has come close to defeating the Blue Bombers but seems to always falter by one score. Zach Collaros and Dalton Schoen have been amazing while connecting on 15 touchdowns. Speed guys like Nic Demski and Rasheed Bailey have had big games against the Stampeders and Lions. The three have combined for 33 touchdowns receiving and over 2,800 yards.
Winnipeg is still the safer pick here. Dalton Schoen is the like MOR (Most Outstanding Rookie). He has been a huge reason why the Blue Bombers are so dangerous. Collaros can throw to four guys, including Brady Oliveira, out of the backfield (929 yards rushing and 23 catches). When the Blue Bombers get rolling, no team in the CFL has the depth and firepower to stop them.
Once more, the playoffs will go through Winnipeg. They will get home field for the West Division Final. Then, the Blue Bombers expect to play the East Division winner. Winnipeg expects to win at least 14 games. The Winnipeg Grey Cup pick is good for more CFL Future Playoff Bets. The number moved a fraction between September and October from different sites.
CFL Future Bets asks the betting world to keep an open mind again. Could the British Columbus Lions still pull this off? That does seem a bit outlandish but consider what the Lions endured after losing Nathan Rourke. They are 4-4 since their 8-1 start, but British Columbia has won consecutive games. They held Edmonton to just 15 points in a solid road outing on Friday night.
Again, British Columbia showed they could beat a resting Winnipeg team. The debate begins whether the Lions can dispose of the Blue Bombers when it counts. Zach Collaros has been a little up and down with his play lately. Add in the fact that Vernon Adams Jr. can step up his game like a few signal-callers, and one has the recipe for a possible upset.
Few would be pleasantly surprised with a British Columbia and Winnipeg clash to get the 2022 Grey Cup or even Calgary. The best thing for CFL fans is that the playoffs will be here soon enough.
For CFL Future Playoff Bets, taking British Columbia is dicey, but Adams Jr. can find a way to carry a team. After all, the quarterback has done it before.
Though the Toronto Argonauts (+425) and Calgary Stampeders (+650) are potential picks, what about their chances? These are teams full of talent but not quite as clutch when the fourth quarter comes. Calgary has lost too often late against British Columbia and Winnipeg.
Calgary carries longer odds at +650 for two reasons. They are not in the East, and the Stampeders are not structured to beat the Blue Bombers.
