    Winnipeg was trailing the Tiger-Cats 22-10 at the end of the fourth quarter, but they scored 15 points without a response. A 13-yard field goal by Hamilton brought the game into overtime and the quarterback Zach Collaros threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Darvin Adams on Winnipeg’s opening game in the extra period which was followed by a 2-point score with Rasheed Bailey.

  • CFL 2022 futures betting 109th Grey Cup odds

    The 2022 Canadian Football League season is approaching and now that there are a huge number of regulated online sportsbooks in Ontario, the expectation is that more futures bets will be placed on the CFL than ever before. One of the teams sure to see the most action? You guessed it, the defending champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

    It should come as no surprise that the odds-on favorite to win the 109th Grey Cup is Winnipeg, which goes for a three-peat after winning in 2019 and again in 2021 (the season was cancelled in 2020).

    Winnipeg may have lost a couple of pieces but have returned plenty of talent from last year’s championship team and made several new financial commitments that have led it to spend more money than any other team in the CFL.

    But does high spending and low odds mean you should be placing a futures bet on the Bombers before Week 1?

    Not too long ago, 3DownNation analyzed the CFL salary cap situation for each team. Unsurprisingly, the defending champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers are investing heavily into their stellar personnel, many of which were in line for raises this offseason, as the team attempts to win a third consecutive Grey Cup.

    The Bombers are currently expected to spend a total of approximately $5.3 million in player salaries for the 2022 season. It would be the highest amongst the league’s nine clubs, and that’s even with Winnipeg allowing running back Andrew Harris and receiver Kenny Lawler to depart in free agency.

    After all, the Bombers are home to the CFL’s single highest-paid player, that being three-time Grey Cup champ (twice with Winnipeg) Zach Collaros.

    While Collaros does claim the biggest piece of the Bombers’ salary cap pie ($550,000 in 2022), most would argue it’s warranted and that the 33-year-old quarterback gives Winnipeg the best chance for another Grey Cup, especially now that Harris is elsewhere.

    Winnipeg also handed out raises to keep several other top-end players and is financially committed at nearly every position on the depth chart going into the 2022 season. But should you bet on that spending translating into another championship?
