Just three teams remain undefeated heading into Week 4 and with Montreal and Toronto going head-to-head this week, that number will shrink to two.

With Week 4 kicking off on Thursday, let’s take a quick look at the Riders, Alouettes and Argonauts.

2024 Grey Cup odds

Saskatchewan Roughriders (3-0)

Week 1 result: 29-21 @ Edmonton Elks

Week 2 result: 33-30 @ Hamilton Tiger-Cats

Week 3 result: 36-20 vs. Hamilton Tiger-Cats

Next five weeks: Bye, vs. Toronto, @ BC, vs. Winnipeg, @ Montreal

The Roughriders have looked great early in the season, but they still haven’t faced a team that has won a game yet. Saskatchewan has a tough test coming up as after this week’s bye as they face stiff competition in Toronto, BC, Winnipeg and Montreal.

There’s also concern over the status of Trevor Harris. He left last week’s home opener against Hamilton with a leg injury and was seen on the sidelines with a brace on his left knee. We likely won’t know how serious Harris’ injury is until next week, but it’s definitely something to monitor.

Montreal Alouettes (3-0)

Week 1 result: 21-12 @ Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Week 2 result: 23-20 @ Edmonton Elks

Week 3 result: 47-21 vs. Ottawa RedBlacks

Next five weeks: @ Toronto, vs. Calgary, vs. Toronto, Bye, vs. Saskatchewan

Montreal flew under the radar last year, but no one is sleeping on the defending Grey Cup champions in 2024. The Alouettes started their season with back-to-back road victories before blowing out Hamilton in their home opener last week.

The core of last year’s team remains in place and they have the No. 1 defence in the CFL that leads the league in average opponent yards per game (340.3), QBR (72.6) and points (17.7).

Toronto Argonauts (2-0)

Week 1 result: 35-27 vs. BC Lions

Week 2 result: Bye

Week 3 result: 39-36 vs. Edmonton Elks

Next five weeks: vs. Montreal, @ Saskatchewan, @ Montreal, @ Hamilton, vs. Winnipeg

With reigning Most Outstanding Player Chad Kelly suspended for at least the first nine games this season, it looked like it could be a disastrous year in Toronto. That hasn’t been the case as Cameron Dukes has impressed, completing 81.2 per cent of his passes while throwing five touchdowns and no interceptions.

The Argos lead the league in average rushing yards per game (145.5), QBR (142.0) and most importantly, points (37.0).

Prediction

With the Alouettes and Argonauts playing in Toronto this week, we know one team’s perfect record will be ruined. The Als have looked great on both sides of the ball, while the Argos have the worst pass defence in the CFL. I don’t think it will as bad of beating as last year’s playoff matchup, but I think Montreal wins this week.

Saskatchewan has a Week 4 bye before a tough schedule that will see them play four difficult opponents in four consecutive weeks. I’m going with the team that has the easier schedule. The Alouettes only have one road game over the next five weeks and I don’t see them slowing down anytime soon.

Prediction: Keep betting on Montreal because they will be the last undefeated team this season.
