After a sporadic effort against Edmonton the Calgary Stampeders looked to redeem themselves against the unbeaten Alouettes who have shown promise early in the CFL season.
First Half:
The Stamps came out in similar fashion as they did in Edmonton. Montreal went the entire half with only one 2 and out and that was at the end of the half. Otherwise, it was all Montreal connecting for huge plays, tortching the secondary and taking their sweet time getting off plays. There was little successful pressure and the usual suspects a la Calvin Bannister was beat for Montreal's only first half touchdown. The only upside the defensive play was the single major for Montreal, but other than a Duval missed field goal, the score could have been much worse going into half-time.
