Toronto Argonauts vs Edmonton Elks Prediction

This doesn’t feel like an ideal spot for the Edmonton Elks to get in the win column. The Elks aren’t finishing drives offensively, the defense has issues stopping the run, and those struggles came at home. The Elks now take the road for the first time. Meanwhile, the Toronto Argonauts have had an extra week to prepare for this Game and with just one contest under their belt they looked fantastic in the trenches on both sides of the ball. The Argos have won 3 straight Games against the Elks, and those wins came by an average of 13.3 points. I’ll take the Argonauts by a touchdown.
