Game 14 - Argos 23 Stamps 16

Eric England believes the Toronto Argonauts proved Saturday night they can play with the CFL's elite teams.
England and Ricky Williams scored second-half touchdowns as the Argos hung on for a tense 23-16 home win over the Calgary Stampeders before a season-high Rogers Centre gathering of 32,410 spectators. The victory was redemption for Toronto, which lost a 39-18 road decision to the Stamps last weekend.

''They are one of the better teams,'' England said of the Stampeders. ''I think it does say we can handle anybody, we can play with anybody and people have to watch out for us now.

''You always want to play good at home and do what it takes to win at home. You want to secure your home and we did that.''

Toronto (8-6) moved into a first-place tie with Montreal (8-6) atop the East Division standings with its third straight home victory overall and sixth straight win over Calgary at Rogers Centre.

The Stampeders (9-6) fell to second in the West Division behind the B.C. Lions (10-4), who beat Hamilton 28-8 earlier Saturday.
