2. Brandon Lang: After collecting four penalties in the July 11 loss to the Edmonton Eskimos, he had a key quarterback sack, another tackle and, importantly, no penalties against the Argos.

3. The left tackle: Ottawa quarterbacks have been sacked 12 times in three games. Nate Menkin played the first two games at left tackle, defending Burris’s blind side, and Jeraill McCuller played the third. Both saw time at that position during practices earlier this week.

4. Travis Brown: The 24-year-old rookie linebacker from Fresno State has settled nicely into the middle of the Ottawa defence, with 11 tackles and one sack in three games.
