In fact, all three victories have come by 13-plus points. Now the Bombers are on the road to face the Stampeders, who are coming off a bye. Calgary is 2-0 SU as an underdog this season, and the Stamps beat the Bombers, 22-19 (OT), as home &#8216;dogs last year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Backed by a pair of red-zone turnovers on defence \u2014 including one that was returned 105 yards for a touchdown \u2014 the Argonauts finally got into the win column in Week 4. The reward is just four days of rest ahead of a meeting with the Ti-Cats, who went 3-0 SU as underdogs against the Argos last season. Toronto quarterback Chad Kelly, the 2023 MOP, won&#8217;t make his season debut until at least Week 7.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Alexander returned to practice on July 1, though backup McLeod Bethel-Thompson was reportedly leading the offence to start the week. The Als would certainly love to have Alexander back after he missed last week&#8217;s 35-17 loss in Hamilton. BC has lost three in a row SU and ATS. If QB1 Rourke is unavailable again, the Lions might be in trouble.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The ugliest game of the week is saved for last, as Ottawa and Edmonton are a combined 1-6 SU and ATS. A lot of teams have banged-up starting QBs right now, and the Redblacks are among them. If Brown can return this week, he&#8217;ll give Ottawa a notable edge over Edmonton. The Elks went 0-2 SU and ATS vs. the Redblacks last season.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lots of CFL starting quarterbacks are on the shelf or in the process of returning, and their statuses are critical for the Week 5 odds.
