Week 6 Resu
lt: Lost to BC on the road 20-35The Saskatchewan Roughriders took their first loss of the season as they lost to the BC Lions on the road 20-35. Shea Patterson completed 17 of his 25 passes for 278 yards with 1 interception. Samuel Emilus led the team in receiving as he caught 8 passes for 161 yards. A.J. Ouellette had his highest yards per carry yet as a Rider in the game as he rushed 12 times for 72 yards with 2 touchdowns, 6 yards per carry. It was positive for the Riderβs defense to generate 4 sacks, 2 of which came from DT Anthony Lanier II. Additionally holding William Stanback to just 1.2 yards per carry as he rushed for 14 yards on 12 carries was very positive for Rider Nation. However, allowing 451 passing yards in a game makes victory improbable.

Week 6 Resu
lt: Lost to Ottawa at home 34-37The Edmonton Elks season has been a tragedy. Week 6 saw the Elks tie the game with only 8 seconds left. The kickoff was an illegal kick out of bounds which resulted in Ottawa getting good field position without any time coming off the clock. Ottawa completed a 29-yard pass to put themselves in field goal range and won the game the next play. It was the 4th game in a row that Edmonton lost by 3 points and the 3rd game in a row in which the final play was their opponentβs game-winning field goal. While Edmonton has been playing good competitive football the losses have accumulated too often and the organization has decided to part ways with head coach and General Manager Chris Jones.
McLeod Bethel-Thompson completed 26 of his 35 passes for 272 yards and 2 touchdowns in the loss. He currently is third in the league in passing yards per game. Eugene Lewis led the team in receiving yards having caught 6 passes for 89 yards. Hergy Mayala caught 7 passes for 88 yards and a touchdown. Kevin Brown rushed 8 times for 35 yards (4.4 average) and Javon Leake rushed 4 times for 19 yards (4.8 yards).
