132 \u2013 TYSON PHILPOT RECEIVING YARDS<\/p>\n

Tyson Philpot brought his best to the \u2018Philpot Bowl\u2019 \u2014 the third career head-to-head against his twin brother Jalen. The Alouettes receiver was the biggest beneficiary of Davis Alexander\u2019s efficient, 300-yard night, leading Montreal with 132 receiving yards and a touchdown on nine catches while adding to his league-leading total of 719 yards on the season.<\/p>\n

Philpot made an impact from the start, hauling in a heavily contested deep ball before following up with the game\u2019s opening touchdown on Tyler Snead\u2019s trick-play pass. He remained Alexander\u2019s most reliable weapon throughout the night, showing he hasn\u2019t missed a beat after his near-200-yard outing before Montreal\u2019s bye.<\/p>\n

94 \u2013 TRAVIS THEIS RUSHING YARDS<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t just the passing game driving Montreal\u2019s success, as Travis Theis provided balance with a season-high 94 rushing yards and a touchdown on just 13 carries. The second-year back made the most of his opportunities, including ripping off the game\u2019s longest play \u2014 a 46-yard burst \u2014 immediately after the Stampeders cut the lead to a single score.<\/p>\n

Theis also found the end zone in the first half, capping a 24-10 Alouettes run before the break. His efficiency on the ground helped Montreal stay ahead of schedule late, allowing the Als to bleed the clock and make Calgary\u2019s comeback attempt an even taller task.<\/p>\n

7 \u2013 ALOUETTES PASS BREAK-UPS<\/p>\n

Montreal\u2019s front set the tone and made life uncomfortable for Vernon Adams Jr. and the Stampeders\u2019 passing attack. As well as tallying three sacks, the Alouettes consistently challenged throws downfield and at the line, with five different defenders getting involved, including a pair of knockdowns each from Geoffrey Cantin-Arku and Don Callis.<\/p>\n

The biggest play came from debutant David Perales, who got a hand on Adams Jr.\u2019s third-down pass with under a minute remaining to halt Calgary\u2019s final push and seal the victory. Adams Jr. finished with his lowest completion percentage of the season, as Montreal made every completion a challenge and consistently forced him into difficult throws.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As the CFL\u2019s Official Charity Partner, World Vision Canada works alongside players, teams, and fans to create meaningful…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":796304,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194293],"tags":[49,2798,48],"class_list":["post-796303","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-calgary","tag-ca","tag-calgary","tag-canada"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=796303"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796303\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/796304"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=796303"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=796303"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=796303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
