In losing to the Roughriders, the Argonauts fumble away more than just one game

Toronto Argonauts coach Marc Trestman reached the podium a few minutes after the game, in a small room under the east stands at BMO Field, and he rattled off items from a list only he could see. From the top of his head, he pointed to the red zone offence, the penalties and the defence.
“As I told the guys,” he said, “we lost as a team tonight.”
If the Argos had won as a team on Saturday night, they would have not only clinched a playoff berth, they would have earned a home playoff date. They could have made the final month of the Canadian Football League's regular season a tune-up for the post-season.
