Calgary Stampeders beat previously unbeaten Toronto 20-7 after Argonauts starter Chad Kelly leaves with injury
The Calgary Stampeders handed the Toronto Argonauts their first loss and won their first home game of the season in a 20-7 victory Friday.
Rene Paredes kicked field goals from 42 and 45 yards and contributed a pair of convert points in front of an announced 19,234 at McMahon Stadium. Kelly completed four of six passes for 96 yards and a touchdown pass during his quarter and a half of work. Dukes was 8-for-15 in passing for 63 yards and one interception in relief.
Stampeder coach Dave Dickenson’s successful challenge for roughing the passer gave his team the ball on Toronto’s 40-yard line midway through the third quarter. Paredes’ 42-yard field goal gave the Stamps a 20-7 lead. The Stampeders weren’t able to generate an offensive touchdown in the 96 seconds remaining in the half, but Griffin’s speed and quick wits produced a major.
