Argonauts vs Lions Prediction 

Toronto comes into this matchup on a three game losing streak and they lost to a Hamilton team that was playing a backup QB last week. The Argonauts have been brutal defensively this year and they have allowed 30+ points in three of their last four. BC is missing Rourke for this contest, so they will have a backup QB. The Lions have also played poor defense this year, as they have allowed 31+ points in four of their last five games. I think this is a great situation for Brice, as he should find more success this week. Take the over here.
