Just days after a promising result against the Toronto Argonauts, the Ottawa Redblacks once again found a new low-point of their season, losing in dominant fashion to the Calgary Stampeders, who were missing many key pieces due to a COVID-19 outbreak, by a score of 17-3.

Down by seven points inside the final three minutes in their week seven game against the Montreal Alouettes, the Ottawa Redblacks were driving down the field and looked poised to tie the game.

Thanks to a dirty, gutless, despicable, (and whatever other adjective you want to throw in there) hit by Garrett Marino on a vulnerable Jeremiah Masoli, the Ottawa Redblacks appear to be without their starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. Regardless of who you cheer for, or even who you play/work for, the hit was brutal. … Continue reading 5 Options for the Redblacks to Replace Jeremiah Masoli
For the second time in as many weeks, the Ottawa Redblacks went toe-to-toe with the two-time defending Grey Cup champions, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Excitement for the new season quickly changed to frustration, as the Ottawa Redblacks squandered a chance to beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in their home stadium, falling 19-17, thanks to a late drive orchestrated by Bombers' backup quarterback, Dru Brown.
