The Edmonton Eskimos played horrible Friday night at Commonwealth Stadium, losing 38-25 to the Montreal Alouettes.
It was quite possibly their worst first half in quite some time– on offense and defense. The Alouettes scored the first four touchdowns of the football game en route to the easy win.
Anthony Calvillo had a field day, going 22 for 32 and 327 yards passing. He was easily able to find Patrick Lavoie, Brian Bratton, Victor Anderson and S.J. Green, as all four of them waltzed into the end zone.
No Brandon Whittaker. No problem. Victor Anderson had 102 yards rushing.
No Jamel Richardson. No problem. S.J. Green had 136 yards receiving. Tactically, it was a perfectly coached game by Marc Trestman.
Both teams are now 4-3 on the season.
As far as the Eskimos are concerned, Steven Jyles barely completed over 50% of his passes (15 for 28) and he had 154 fewer passing yards than Calvillo. Also the highly promoted Cory Boyd only had two yards rushing. The Alouettes anticipated when he got the ball each time and stopped him each time with ease.
The Eskimos grade this week is easy. An F.
