With Winnipeg losing its top spot in the power rankings after getting hammered by B.C. and then the Argos replacing the Lions after destroying them in Week 4, will Toronto be the latest team to fall in a letdown spot?

With the Argonauts atop the power rankings after going 3-0 straight up and against the spread, it's becoming clear that oddsmakers may have underestimated the defending Grey Cup champions coming into the season, especially since they got even better on defense, which was already the team's biggest strength.
The most glaring question about this team entering the year was whether or not Chad "Swag" Kelly could be a No. 1 quarterback in the league and — so far, at least — he's shown he can.
Sure, Kelly's completion percentage of 66.7% and his 250.3 passing yards per game don't jump off the page but his overall grade of 80.1 per PFF is the second-highest in the league among quarterbacks. He has been consistent, spreads the ball around, and can make plays with his feet. 
While Toronto's first two dominant wins of the season came against weak Hamilton and Edmonton squads, the Argos proved they could also excel against more elite competition when they destroyed the Lions 45-24 in Week 4. Since then, they enjoyed a bye week and now face an Alouettes squad playing on just four days of rest after getting clobbered by the Lions on Sunday night.
It's never easy to play football on just four days of rest especially when you have to travel back across the country and don't practice on Monday or Tuesday. It also doesn't help that pass protection has been one of Montreal's biggest problems. 
The Als have surrendered a league-worst 22 sacks. While there are several reasons for that (including issues in blitz pickup and QB Cody Fajardo's tendency to hold on to the ball while waiting for receivers to get open downfield) it's still a really bad matchup for their offensive line to face an Argos D-line that gets a ton of pressure. 
On the other side of the ball, the Als are averaging just 1.75 sacks per game themselves while the Argos have allowed a league-low 1.3 sacks per game. With the Argos winning the battles at the line of scrimmage and boasting a major rest advantage, back them to roll here. My best bet: Argonauts -5 (-110 at DraftKings) Argonauts vs Alouettes same-game parlay Argonauts -5.5 (-110) Cody Fajardo Over 248.5 passing yards (-114) A.J. Ouellette Over 64.5 rushing yards (-114) As dominant as the Argonauts defense has looked, it ranks last in the league in both opponent completion percentage (71.7%) and passing yards allowed per game (321.7).
They limit big plays and come away with plenty of picks but they do allow completions underneath and when they build early leads, opponents are forced to abandon the run. That should mean decent passing numbers for Fajardo, who has thrown for more than 250 yards in every game this season. 
While the Als will be relying on their aerial attack if they fall behind early, the Argos wi...
