Although Henry Burris had the best season of any CFL quarterback, he also had his fair share of interceptions.
But considering the Ottawa RedBlacks quarterback threw for a career-high 5,703 yards this season, his 13 interceptions aren't so bad. But in Sunday's Grey Cup against the Edmonton Eskimos, he threw a costly one.
On second down in the first quarter, the Eskimos pressured Burris, who severely undershot his wide receivers.

On the ensuing drive, the Eskimos marched up the field. Eventually, quarterback Mike Reilly found his favourite target, Adarius Bowman, for the 23-yard strike.
After going down 13-0 early, Edmonton has cut the lead to 13-10 after one quarter of play.
