A fourth-quarter touchdown pass from McLeod Bethel-Thompson and Boris Bede's fifth field goal of the game powered the Argonauts to a 23-20 win over the Ottawa Redblacks Saturday.
Trailing 20-12, Bethel-Thompson connected with Kurleigh Gittens Jr. for a 12-yard touchdown pass and then completed the play with a two-point conversion toss to DaVaris Daniels to tie the game at 4:37 of the fourth.
“These tough wins, they're not always pretty but it shows that we're able to play some close football games. I thought we did some good things but obviously you always want a better performance. But we're happy we got a win.” “When you have a turnover margin like that, you should win the football game,” Redblacks coach Paul LaPolice said, referring to the three interceptions and one fumble recovery.The Argonauts lost the services of running back John White with a leg injury. Dinwiddie didn't have an update after the game but said White was on crutches.
“Games like that, you can't worry about how bad you're hurting. Your team is hurting, they're hurting so you just have to push through. Especially on that last drive to secure the win. I'm just glad I could do my part, be patient and bide my time.” The Argonauts opened the scoring at 4:29 of the first quarter on a 46-yard Bede field goal, but it was the Redblacks who went into halftime with a 13-9 lead.
