The Redblacks finally did it, winning at home vs. the Edmonton Elks Friday. Ottawa hadn\u0027t won a CFL game at TD Place since 2021.
t’s not a relief for me,” said Redblacks head coach Bob Dyce. “I’m happy to win and and I’m happy for the team to win. It’s icing on the cake that we did it here in front of our fans; they got to see us win and they’re going to see more of that in the future. We don’t wear the past home losses. This is our team; it’s the 2023 Redblacks. It’s good to do it, but now we get focused to go into Hamilton.
A bit more than halfway through the first quarter, the Redblacks won a Coach’s Challenge for pass interference, giving them a first down on the Edmonton 35-yard line. Ottawa settled for a 35-yard field goal to take a 3-0 lead. The Redblacks then caught the Elks napping on an onside kickoff, with Deandre Lamont jumping on the ball. But the Canadian Football League Command Centre ruled there was illegal interference by one of the Redblacks.
A 31-yard completion to Jaelon Acklin, then a 17-yard Adams gain on a quarterback keeper up the middle set up a 15-yard field goal by Ward to make it 16-0.Advertisement 6Ottawa stopped an Edmonton drive near the midway point of the third quarter, with Elks QB Jarret Doege misfiring on his throw and it was intercepted by Dandridge at the Redblacks’ five.
