Grey Cup: Keys to the game

A couple of hours prior to Kick-off here in Calgary here are some keys to the game and my view of the field from the press box, pretty sweet.

For the Riders:

-Make contact with Calvillo. It is quite obvious but they need to get to Anthony Calvillo. It's important for the Riders D-line to make him feel uncomfortable.

-Establish long drives. For two reasons, keep the Als offense off the field and to create confidence with Darian Durant.

-Keep Wes Cates involved. Via the run or the pass, he should get more than 10 touches on the day.

For the Als:

-Score early. So they can block out Rider fans. They will be loud and all over the Als offense an early. An early score will cut into the Riders confidence as well.

-Win the Turnover Battle. Another obvious one, however it will be key for the Als Defense to play a big role in a potential Alouette victory.

-Score in redzone. The Als biggest achilles heel this year. putting up field goals instead Touchdowns. Finish off their drives with a bang
