The Lions get back on the winning track by downing Ottawa, and now get set to face another Eastern team — the Toronto Argonauts — next week on the road.
THIRD QUARTERThe Lions open up the second half right where they left off. Adams hits Lucky Whitehead for a 54-yard pass on the first play from scrimmage. It would have been more — he was wide open in the middle of the field — but had to wait on Adams’ pass getting to him.Back to back James Butler runs has the Lions down inside the five yard line. But it’s a bad result on the second run, as Lucky Whitehead has Shaheed Salmon roll up on his legs from behind as he’s blocking.
That’s sack No. 6 for the Redblacks, as Adams is dragged down from behind by Kene Oneyka. But he’s flagged for a horse-collar tackle, and they’re down to the Ottawa seven.An objectionable conduct call on Frankie Griffin gives the Lions a first down at the one. Pipkin punches it in for the fourth TD of the night. Whyte tacks on the extra point.“Here comes another field goal,” joked Ottawa-based Postmedia Tim Baines, as the Redblacks four-play 39-yard drive took them down to the B.C. 30.
Adams misses Rhymes over the middle and the ball goes back to Ottawa after five plays and 28 yards gained.Ottawa marches back down field, to the Lions seven, where Arbuckle hits a wide open Tevaun Smith after he crossed the field.Ottawa is moving the chains again, but David Menard gets his second sack of the night, and it’s second and 17. He takes a knee before the next play, and is attended to by the trainers.
