Ottawa REDBLACKS - Ernest Jackson and Jake Silas are the headliners this week. Not only did their squad had the defending champion Edmonton Eskimoes their first defeat at home in 8 games. And they did it with their backup quarterback playing most of the game.
Jackson and Silas both played a huge role. Jackson had seven receptions for 79 yards.
