“Every play is important,” said Robinson. “At that time, that was the most important play. You learn from it, focus in more and the next time the opportunity comes, you make the play and get the pats on the back. You want to make that play, but it’s another game, another week, another opportunity. The quicker you can move forward, the better off it is.”

Grigsby, who was signed earlier in the week — with the Redblacks stinging from injuries to William Powell and Travon Van — had 14 carries for 65 yards, including a 21-yarder — but got noticed mostly when the ball was punched out of his hands and recovered by Josh Bell.

“I lost the ball at the end so I beat myself up over that,” said Grigsby. “Ball security is a big key to success, especially in the fourth quarter. It was a great football play the guy made and we move on from it. I could have gotten the ball again right after that. It’s something you can’t dwell on. It’s football. It’s adversity. It happens. It was fun to be back out there. There’s a lot to learn from, a lot to go over.”

The Redblacks will practise Monday, have a walk-through Tuesday, then head for Toronto where they play Wednesday night at BMO Field.

“It’s the exact same deal as a couple of weeks ago when we played in Montreal — it’s a five-day week,” said Campbell. “If you make a big deal out of it, it can turn into a big deal. You kind of have to roll with the punches sometimes in the CFL. Every team is going to have weird parts of its schedule. For us, it’s early in the season. You go on the road to Toronto, Eastern Division opponent, and if you find a way to get that done, it’s not a bad four-game stretch for us.
