Turnovers, failed third-down gamble doom Alouettes in loss to Redblacks

OTTAWA — The game was there for the taking, the Alouettes will lament.
With more than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the Als produced an impressive drive from their own 19-yard line. But on a third-and-one gamble from the Ottawa eight, backup quarterback Vernon Adams was stopped short by middle-linebacker Taylor Reed.
The turnover on downs would be the fifth by Montreal on this night. And that was the major reason why they were edged, 24-19, by the Ottawa Redblacks Wednesday
