Ben Grant @coachbengrant.bsky.social · 6d

Here's how Toronto will line up against Saskatchewan tomorrow night. Vandal moves to LG, Bosse to RG with Kemp back in at LT. Hood, Duggan, Chaves, Giffen, and Anderson all dress and should see time.

PREGAME WALKTHROUGH - JB and I get you set for Toronto's first true “evaluation game” under Ryan Dinwiddie as the Argos head to Regina. With Arbuckle and McManis shut down, Toronto will get a chance to look at its young talent down the stretch. youtu.be/EfK5ekQ9F4U #Argos #CFL

POSTGAME REACTION: The Argos fell 47–29 to Hamilton and are now eliminated from playoff contention. They gave up nine sacks, Arbuckle was knocked out in the first series, and the defence got burned early. JB and I break it all down. youtu.be/Yyj14pQ12S4 #Argos #Ticats #CFL

Here's how Toronto will line up vs Hamilton. Only a few changes, but they're newsworthy. Sage Doxtater returns and starts at LG, Hampton Ergle starts in place of Kemp at LT, and Joe Wallace makes his Argos debut at DT for Lanier with Correia starting. #Argos #Ticats #CFL

As I understand it, the joust involved a tremendous amount of death prior to Edward’s implementation of rules. I’m sure not everyone was on board with the rule changes. Perhaps some fans and a few high profile knights thought he was Frenchifying the joust. 😉

Nothing other than he’s not ready to return. Concussions are all different, and everyone responds differently. Plus, this was one of the most brutal hits to the head I’ve ever seen. I just hope he can return to full health, football aside.

Here’s Toronto’s injury and availability report for this week. Kemp and Lanier are out. Arbuckle, Doxtater, Hunter, and Judge are available, and Ungerer will most likely be a GTD. #Argos #Ticats #CFL

They dressed every OL they had. Dankwah, Doxtater, Giffen, Moore, and Sceviour are all injured. They have three OL on the practice roster, but I don’t think they were better options.

Postgame Reaction: Lions 27 - Argos 22

Ben Grant @coachbengrant.bsky.social · 18d

POSTGAME REACTION: The Argos fell 27–22 in BC in yet another game they could have won. The OL struggled, the offence couldn’t finish drives, and three INTs only turned into three points. Herslow, Mital & Hajrullahu shone, but it wasn’t enough. youtu.be/uSQ4mXVfZC8 #Argos #CFL

Here’s the injury and availability report for Toronto as they head to B.C. Arbuckle is available, as is Kemp. Herdman-Reed’s absence will hurt as he’s been a special teams beast. It’s a short injury list, but don’t forget they’ve got 13 guys on the six-game. #Argos #BCLions #CFL

Postgame Reaction - Alouettes 21 - Argos 19

Ben Grant @coachbengrant.bsky.social · 25d

POSTGAME REACTION: The defence came up huge with 3 sacks and 3 INTs, and special teams shined, but in the end, Jarret Doege’s last drive ended with a controversial interception with the Argos in long field goal range. We break it all down. youtu.be/bz7V5HopG_g #Argos #CFL

Here’s how the Argos will line up Friday night against the Alouettes. Doege gets the start at QB, Duggan will dress. Vandal is active and will start at LG. Slywka returns to safety, bumping Bratton back to boundary half and Drew to field corner for Hood. #Argos #Alouettes #CFL

Ben Grant @coachbengrant.bsky.social · 27d

Jarret Doege makes his first Argos start as Toronto hosts Montreal. JB & I break down what it means for Chad Kelly, and the Argos' playoff push. We also get into Dinwiddie’s postgame comments, Toronto’s latest roster moves, and more. youtu.be/EzQa1ZSleDg #Argos #CFL
