Argonauts vs. Tiger-Cats Betting Analysis
Argonauts Analysis
Toronto has many game changers on their roster. Many of whom are hurt, which could impact the outcome of this game. Even with the win, this momentum may not last for much longer.
The Argos had finally put up massive numbers! Not all of them were offensive points, yet they finally put up large numbers in the scoring column.
McLeod Bethel-Thompson threw for one major and completed 63% of his passes! Two of his biggest weapons, RB Andrew Harris and WR Brandon Banks, may not play this game, so they could struggle on the scoring front!
Argonauts’ Defense
The Argonauts’ defense did a solid job at limiting points. Allowing under 20 points is never something to frown upon. They allow over 300 yards, which is worrisome and may not be stable.
The question for this team is if this team can find consistency without its stars. They struggle enough on the offensive front, and without their two premier playmakers, they could continue to struggle. If they are able to pull it together, that will lead to a big win. But one should fear.
Tiger-Cats Analysis
Hamilton has had its fair share of issues thus far. The quarterback position has been a predominant issue. This is a team that can win, but they will do that when they have the fire to do so. Are they hungry enough?
The two-QB system may have to be on hold for Hamilton. Regular star QB Dane Evans will likely miss this game in favor of QB2 Matthew Schiltz.
Who knows what this will look like? Star players like Steven Dunbar and Don Jackson are killer playmakers, but who knows what the success will look like?
Tiger-Cats In the Year’s First Half
The Tiger-Cats have done an excellent job limiting yards in the year’s first half. They allow the second least amount of yards and have done a great job of doing that against Toronto. They are easily a contending defense.
The question for this team is a matter of this offense turning the ball over too much. They have suffered a major Grey Cup hangover, and the offense is to blame. With the offense inserting a new passer, all could be different in Hamer Town!

Toronto Argonauts vs. Hamilton Tiger-Cats Betting Preview
The key to this matchup will be an offense. Both of these defenses are more than capable of pitching a shutout.
It is up to the offenses to put up big numbers, which neither squad was able to do last week. The offense in which that can consistently play well will win this ball game.
What are the odds for this game? Vegas seems to favor the Tiger-Cats by two points in this matchup. Our Tiger-Cats vs. Argonauts Betting Analysis says it does not seem that this game will be a blowout like the previous one.
Toronto Argonauts vs. Hamilton Tiger-Cats Betting Prediction
The Argonauts’ offense, even at full throttle, cannot score. Without weapons, it will continue to fall down, and that is why the Tiger-Cats will come out on top.
Matthew Schiltz will do a great job covering as he is a CFL veteran QB. Our CFL picks say the Tiger-Cats will prevail and tighten up the east division race! Bet Hamilton -2.5
CFL Pick: Tiger-Cats -2.5 (20.11)
