Writeup from NI:

"I expect a bit of payback here for Toronto after losing the two previous games with QBs Damon Allen, Mike McMahon and Rocky Butler - not Bishop.

These teams play again next week and the scoring differential will be a large factor here. In two losses to Montreal this season, Montreal has built up a 15-point differential edge. Toronto needs to win both games by a combined total of 16 or more to win the season series. This is something to consider if they are up late and deep in Montreal territory. They won't be taking a knee.

Toronto is on 6 days rest versus 4 for Montreal. This is the last game of the season where one team has either a 6-4 or 7-5 edge in days rest. In the previous four situations all four covered.

Montreal is the only team in the CFL to be out-yarded in every one of their road games. Home teams have had an average 6.1 point advantage so far this season through 56 games."

Very telling statistic right here. I tend to believe now that the line has crossed close to 7 that Montreal might be the play despite all of their troubles. Does anyone have a weather report for tonight (or will the roof be closed in Toronto)?

30% chance of showers, 44 F and winds at 11 mph. Good football weather but I think they will have the roof closed.

Once again - I will caution anyone who is thinking this. Closing lines that have moved > 3 pts are covering at 85% of the closing line.

I have the argos winning this game by 10 points & keep in mind what NI said about the point differential there will be no let up from the argos tonight.

The Alouettes outgain the Argonauts by 7 yards a game on the ground, and by almost 50 in the air. Toronto's better defensively, but not by that much.

I'd be very wary of laying more than a FG in this one.

If the weather is this good, I'm going to play the over in this game and pass on Montreal. Toronto's D gives up nothing in the air, but it could be a big running game for the Als. Edwards playing against the team that cut him has to be motivation, and with the way games have been going lately, I'll give the over a shot on what is relatively a short number. I've got a future on Montreal to win the East, so I really would love to see the Als win this game, but I won't be counting on it.

Calvillo has absolutely torn up this Argos defense on the first two drives while the Toronto offense looks like one of the other stooges is under centre and not Bishop. Something's gotta give for Toronto or they can book their playoff flight to Montreal so long as they can avoid the crossover bug.
