Key Storylines
Recent form
Toronto is limping into Week 11 after a 46-42 home loss to Ottawa in Week 10. Nick Arbuckle threw for 317 yards and 3 touchdowns but also threw an interception for the Argos in that game. Edmonton just notched their second win of the season by a point over the Montreal Alouettes in a revenge game for Elks quarterback Cody Fajardo.
Quarterback play
Argonauts’ QB Nick Arbuckle has been delivering solid passing stats despite his team’s struggles. He is second in the league in passing yards but his 10 interceptions lead the CFL and are a concern for Toronto. Cody Fajardo has taken over starting quarterback duties for Edmonton after Tre Ford’s benching. Fajardo has six touchdowns to just one interception so far this year and Edmonton will hope he can stay efficient with the football.

Final Thoughts
Trusting either of these teams to play four solid quarters of football in a row is a risky proposition. But I think that the Argos have the higher upside going into this matchup. Arbuckle should limit the turnovers for the second week in a row and the Argos should keep this game within a field goal no matter who ends up winning this battle of teams in the basements of their respective divisions.
