TORONTO -- Week 12 featured exciting games and stellar individual performances.
From Shawn Lemon pressuring Tre Ford to Davis Alexander continuing to make a case to win the George Reed Most Outstanding Player award, players across the league impressed.
Here are five PFF grades and statistics that stood out from Week 12.
DAVIS ALEXANDER | QUARTERBACK | MONTREAL ALOUETTES | 92.7 PASSING GRADE
Davis Alexander was the highest-graded passer in Week 12, according to PFF, finishing his night with a 92.7 passing grade.
The Als quarterback completed 87 per cent of his attempts (20 of 23) for 260 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions and had a 150.6 passer rating. He also continued to use his legs to extend plays, adding a 12-yard rush in the contest.
SHAWN LEMON & JOSH ARCHIBALD | DEFENSIVE LINE | 5 PRESSURES GENERATED
Shawn Lemon has made his mark since joining the Argonauts just a few weeks ago. In four games, the veteran defensive lineman has tallied six sacks, including two in Week 12 against Hamilton. Lemon's five pressures on Saturday were tied for the most in Week 12, according to PFF. He also forced a fumble and added four tackles in the Argos' win over their rival, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Who was he tied with? Montreal Alouettes defensive lineman Joshua Archibald. Archibald didn't record a sack in his team's win on the weekend, but sometimes sacks don't tell the entire story. He still cause disruption behind the line of scrimmage, tallying five pressures in the contest.
TRAVIS THEIS | RUNNING BACK | MONTREAL ALOUETTES | 5 MISSED TACKLES FORCED
Travis Theis continued to roll in Week 12, running the rock 11 times for 88 yards and a touchdown in the Alouettes' win over Ottawa.
According to PFF, the Als' running back forced a week-high five missed tackles, as Theis proved once again that he's tough to take down when the ball is in his hands.
JEVON COTTOY | RECEIVER | BC LIONS | 80.8 RECEIVING GRADE
Jevon Cottoy was Nathan Rourke's favourite target on Sunday night, hauling in all six passes thrown his way for a game-high 110 receiving yards and a touchdown.
According to PFF, Cottoy had the week's highest receiving grade among receivers, with the Canadian pass-catcher earning an 80.8 grade.
DAVID REECE | DEFENSIVE LINE | WINNIPEG BLUE BOMBERS | 92.4 DEFENSIVE GRADE
David Reece was the highest-graded defender in Week 12, according to PFF, with a 92.4 defensive grade.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers' defensive end forced a fumble against the Elks and added two defensive tackles.
