Beating the Toronto Argonauts Saturday afternoon at TD Place would be a big deal to Avery Williams. It matters to the veteran linebacker and to his Ottawa Redblacks teammates\u003B it really matters.
“Getting a home win, that’s the most important thing,” said Williams. “It hurts we haven’t done it in awhile. We understand what we have to do; the fans really deserve a win.”
“Whenever you’re facing a divisional opponent in the second half of the season – after Labour Day – the intensity and importance is turned up,” said quarterback Nick Arbuckle, who has won both his starts with the Redblacks since being acquired from Edmonton in July. “The fact everybody in the East division is so close in terms of the win-loss record adds even more importance. We’re only going to get two more shots at Toronto; right now we have a 1-0 lead on them in the series.
“This is probably the most fun I’ve had playing in a long time,” he said. “ believe in each other, we feel really prepared. When you feel ready for the game, that allows you to play loose and free and have fun.” “You’re happy when you win two games in a row,” said LaPolice. “You’re in a better mood after you win. But it’s a week-to-week business. We have to make sure we handle our business and make sure we play … we don’t think just because we won two games in a row. We still have to work as hard as we can.”Article content
