The Stampeders play their first game in the Nation’s Capital since 2005 as they take on the Ottawa RedBlacks on Sunday afternoon. Kickoff at TD Place Stadium is 1 p.m. MDT.

The Stamps go into the contest with a league-best 6-1 record including a 38-17 win over the RedBlacks at McMahon Stadium in Week 7. Calgary followed that result up with a 30-20 decision in Hamilton last week.

Ottawa is 1-6 and is attempting to snap a four-game losing streak. The most recent setback for the RedBlacks was a heart-breaking 10-8 decision on home turf to the Edmonton Eskimos.

Calgary leads the CFL in both scoring (27.3 points per game) and defence (a league-low average of 16.3 points allowed per contest). Ottawa ranks eighth out of nine CFL teams in scoring (17.0 points per game) and last in defence (28.4 points per game).

Calgary is 3-0 on the road so far this season and 5-0 against the East Division. The RedBlacks are 1-2 on home field and 0-5 against the West.

The game features an intriguing battle at quarterback as 24-year-old Stamps pivot Bo Levi Mitchell, in his first season as a starter, faces 15-year CFL veteran and former Stamp Henry Burris.

Mitchell has thrown for 1,692 yards and 12 touchdowns this season and leads the CFL with a 102.6 QB rating.

Burris has 1,634 passing yards so far in 2014 and needs just 96 yards to pass Danny McManus for third place on the CFL’s all-time list.

The Stamps haven’t played in Ottawa since July 16, 2005, when they suffered a 33-18 loss to the Renegades at what was then known as Frank Clair Stadium. Calgary’s most recent win in the Nation’s Capital came on Sept. 22, 2002, when Marcus Crandell hooked up with Kamau Peterson for a 35-yard touchdown in overtime as the Stamps won 26-22.
