The Argonauts have a dominant recent record against the Redblacks, who are also coming off a disappointing 2025 campaign and a coaching change.

Toronto Argonauts Seeking First Win
Toronto are still seeking their first win of the season as they head out on the road for the second week in a row.
The Argonauts claimed the Grey Cup in 2024, but the 2025 season proved to be a nightmare for them as they finish 5-13 to miss out on the playoffs.
They came into the current campaign looking to rebound from that rough campaign, but they did not get off to the best of starts.
Toronto’s offense was firing with Chad Kelly back under centre after a season-long absence.
However, the Argonauts’ 30 points was not enough to prevent them from falling to defeat in Montreal, as they lost 37-30 to the Alouettes.
Ottawa Redblacks Winless Entering Week 3
Ottawa also enter this matchup still seeking a first win of the campaign, having dropped their season opener a fortnight ago.
The Redblacks came into the new season with expectations of bettering a miserable 2025 campaign that saw them go 4-14.
They made some notable changes in the offseason, including the appointment of Ryan Dinwiddie as head coach.
However, that did not result in Ottawa enjoying a winning start to the current campaign.
The Redblacks were handed a home outing to start the season, but ultimately fell to a 29-21 defeat to Edmonton to go into an early bye week at 0-1.
Verdict
Both teams dropped their season opener, but Toronto offered plenty of positives on the offensive side.
Chad Kelly showed little rust as he returned to action, and the Argonauts quarterback can lead his team to a first win in 2026 on Saturday.
