Randy’s Pick

It’s just 3 games, but the Toronto Argonauts are making a case as one of the best teams in the league, and their offense is rolling. It doesn’t hurt that the Argonauts have had an extra week to prepare for this contest. The Montreal Alouettes have been hit or miss through 4 games, and they’re coming off two sloppy performances. The Alouettes are subpar at both running the ball and stopping the run. I have no choice but to lay the touchdown with the Argos on the road.
