Edmonton Elks vs Ottawa Redblacks Prediction

I’m not running to the window to back the Ottawa Redblacks as much as the next guy. The Redblacks aren’t a good team. However, laying points with the Edmonton Elks is probably worse. Yes, the Elks are at home and have had an extra week to prepare. I get it. The Elks are also winless on the season and have lost their last 8 Games overall. The Elks have been dreadful defensively and they can’t run the Football. I’m supposed to lay points with them? I can’t do it. If forced to get involved, I want the points with the Redblacks as more of a fade of the Elks than anything else.
