Trevor Harris has been steady this season for the Riders, delivering consistent numbers. In their last game, he completed 27 of 33 passes for 341 yards and one touchdown with no interceptions. His command of the offense and ability to spread the ball to different receivers make him one of the best quarterbacks in the CFL right now.
Toronto turns to Jarret Doege, who is largely unproven at this level. He has arm strength, but his decision-making under pressure is a concern going into a game against the Saskatchewan defense. It’s unlikely Toronto can lean on the run game much, so Doege will have to sling it and he will be vulnerable to turnovers against a defense like Saskatchewan’s.
Score Projection: Saskatchewan 34 – Toronto 21
Win Probability: Saskatchewan 78%, Toronto 22%
We should see the Saskatchewan Roughriders lock up the West Division title with a win at home here. The quarterback situation for the Argos has gone from bad to worse and I don't think that they will be able to recover from that. I'll lay the points with the Riders in this game, as they shoudl make life miserable for Doege and claim this contest by double-digits.
