After all, it documents a landmark in the history of the Chris Jones-led Saskatchewan Roughriders — a meaningful victory over a West Division rival. Lions, Jones — the Roughriders’ second-year head coach, who moonlights as the defensive co-ordinator — applauded his team’s physicality and execution on defence. “I called the exact same game plan, without deviation, as the week prior,” noted Jones, referencing the Roughriders’ 30-15 loss in Vancouver on Aug. 5. The Lions’ PPP was 36.8 — the lowest by any offence that has faced the 3-4 Roughriders this season. On Sunday, the Roughriders’ offence had a PPP of 56.6.
