What to Watch
Argonauts & Arbuckle
Toronto is winless but competitive in close games. Arbuckle, who led them to the 2022 Grey Cup, is experienced and capable.
Return specialist Janarion Grant is back, boosting field-position control.
Redblacks & Crum
Ottawa’s QB rotation continues with Crum stepping in after Brown’s hip injury.
They’ll lean on their improved run game—Daniel Adeboboye had 200+ rushing yards last week.
Defense missing key feedback with DB Adrian Frye out, but new faces like Anthony Bennett add physicality.
Argonauts vs. Redblacks Prediction
This could be a tight enough battle to go either way. Toronto’s championship pedigree and Arbuckle’s experience give them a slight edge if they avoid costly errors. However, Ottawa’s ground game and home crowd energy will keep them in it.
Expect a close, playoff-style contest decided in the fourth quarter—likely a field goal or turnover swing.
