The Watch List- Keeping an Eye on History

The Montreal Alouettes host the Toronto Argonauts in an east division battle. With a Win the Als will be all alone in top spot as an Argos win would create a three-way tie with Winnipeg. Here's what to look for tonight.

- It's all about the Alouettes first series as Anthony Calvillo will break the tie with Damon Allen for top spot on the CFL all-time TD passing list. AC and Trestman would love to get it over with so they could just concentrate on football.

- If the Als aim for the endzone early on a bomb, look for SJ Green or Brandon London to be on the other end of it.

- If the Als march up the field and get into the Redzone, look for either Brandon Whitaker or Brian Bratton to notch the historic TD much like their last week TD receptions.

- #80 Eric Deslauriers will get his first start of the Season with the offense, He better catch the first few to him, or AC may never look at him for the rest of the game.

- The Alouettes Special teams coverage which has been an issue this year will have their hands full with former WR/KR Chad Owens. He may score the Only TD for the Boatmen.

- Look for Montreal's front four to concentrate a little more on Cleo Lemon than Chad Kackert. With no Cory Boyd it frees up for more pass rushing plays other then playing run defense against one of the leagues best.

- Don't Miss Ben Cahoon being honored at halftime, he deserves your attention, even though he doesn't want it.

-It's week 3, Dwight Anderson, Billy Parker or Mark Estelle would like to nab the Alouettes 1st INT of the season. It'll happen, give me Parker.

Prediction time: if you know me, You know I will not go against the Alouettes at home with Anthony Calvillo at the helm. I do not like the Argos Chances without Cory Boyd, their one true offensive star. The Argos defense will focus on Ac as he is missing some receivers. But I expect 5 plus receptions from Bratton, Green, Whitaker and London. Montreal 35, Toronto 15.
