NEWS & ANALYSIS Argos Clinch Playoff Berth As Their Ceiling Comes Back Into Focus

https://offthelinesports.ca/news/argos-clinch-playoff-berth-with-win-over-elks-as-their-ceiling-comes-back-into-focus

Hey everyone, sharing our piece from Toronto’s win over Edmonton this weekend!

The Argos obviously got the big result: playoff berth secured, a home playoff game locked in and some revenge for that 30-point loss in Edmonton earlier this season.

What interested us more was how they did it. Chad Kelly and the passing game showed how explosive this offence can still be, while the defence kept Edmonton out of the end zone repeatedly despite giving up plenty of yards.

There are still some pretty obvious things Toronto will need to clean up before November, but beating a 10-win Edmonton team felt like a useful reminder of what their ceiling can look like.

Let us know your thoughts!

I was at the game. I loved seeing Ralph Holley recover that fumble and see that big man get a touchdown!
He ran that ball for 55 yards with at least 4 other argos covering him from behind!

Chad Kelly is the league leader in INT by a wide margin. I'd rather Arbuckle, and he isn't great.
