Edmonton<\/a>‘s running game gutted out a road win<\/a> in Winnipeg, keeping the Elks undefeated at 3-0.<\/p>\n

The Edmonton Elks<\/a> escaped Princess Auto Stadium with a 23\u201318 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers<\/a>, staying perfect on the young season. Edmonton moves to 3-0 and sits atop the West, while Winnipeg falls to 1-2 and is already looking up at the rest of the division. The Bombers had the yards \u2014 actually outgaining Edmonton 396 to 388 \u2014 but couldn’t punch in a rushing touchdown and the Elks’ three sacks made life miserable enough late to hold on.<\/p>\n

Quick Hits<\/p>\n

Edmonton rushed for 121 yards and 2 touchdowns on 22 carries \u2014 that ground game won this football game, plain and simple.<\/p>\n

Rankin<\/a> cracked the 100-yard mark on just 15 carries (7.1 ypc), making him one of the most dangerous backs in the league through four weeks.<\/p>\n

Collaros finished 24\/33 for 290 yards and 2 TDs with zero interceptions and still lost \u2014 Winnipeg’s inability to run it in (0 rushing TDs) was the difference.<\/p>\n

Nic Demski<\/a> led all receivers with 6 catches for 92 yards but couldn’t find the end zone; Winnipeg needed more from their top weapon in crunch time.<\/p>\n

Fantasy note: Kaion Julien-Grant<\/a> is quietly building a case as Fajardo’s go-to target \u2014 6 catches, 84 yards in a game Edmonton controlled with the run.<\/p>\n
