Ottawa Redblacks Edge Edmonton Eskimos in CFL Action
A year ago, at the same point of the Canadian Football League regular season, the Ottawa Redblacks had a record of four victories and three defeats.
This year’s crew improved to 4-2-1 after defeating the Edmonton Eskimos 23-20 at TD Place stadium on Saturday night, so why does it still feel like there’s more that could have been done?
Maybe it’s because the Redblacks keep getting in their own way with penalties, and maybe it’s because their once high-flying offence continues to scuffle, but first place is first place no matter how it’s sliced up, and that’s where Henry Burris and Co. find themselves in the East Division going into their first bye week of the schedule.
