The Argos have won all their games after a bye week. They didn't loose their winning edge after they lost in Calgary.
The Argos have rotated players into and out of the lineup all year, so some players have sat out games already.
I do agree that sitting out some players is bad for the fans, but if some guy is nicked up and an extra week of less contact will get them healthier for championship games, I would not be disappointed about it. I would certainly agree that sitting out players in the division final in anticipation that you are going to be in the Grey Cup game would be a terrible idea.
If the Argos continue to be successful it will be interesting to see how the coaches handle it.
Long time Argo fans haven't forgotten 1982 (Argos finished first and lost the Grey Cup game).
and as for the young-uns, remember 2021 finished first and blew the East Final on BMO Field.
