The Argos dropped another heartbreaker, falling 46-42 to Ottawa in a wild game that saw Toronto jump out to a 22–1 lead after the first quarter. Now 0-5 in games decided in the last three minutes and sitting at 2-7, the Boatmen will need to string wins together quickly to stay in the playoff hunt. Despite a defensive touchdown from Jordan Williams on a long scoop-and-score, the Argos' defence allowed Ottawa to throw five touchdowns in the final three quarters. Special teams added to the frustration, giving up multiple big returns. The bright spot was an outstanding offensive performance. Toronto's offensive line was brilliant, and Coach Ryan Dinwiddie crafted a masterful plan to keep Nick Arbuckle upright - moving the pocket, mixing in creative misdirection, and designing plays we've never seen from this team. Arbuckle delivered, but the Argos still finished one score short. Ben Grant is joined by guest host JC Abbott to break down all the action and bring you radio replays from TSN 1050.
