Winnipeg @ Ottawa

Fans gotta remember who took this club to 5 grey cups and chill out. This is still Zach's team no question. MOS won't stand for any talk of controversy at all, he will be 100% behind Collaros and rightfully so and the players know that. It's business as usual with a very good backup waiting in the wings if need be

I don't believe anyone is disputing Zach's past record, but you have to acknowledge he has been fairly compensated as one of the CFL's top paid performers throughout his time in Wpg.  So, what does any of that have to do with this season?  Are we supposed to continue to feed him rope and ignore his declining performance over the past 2 seasons as his TD output dropped by half, while his interception rate doubled and then tripled?  A QB transition is dawning and if they want to remain competitive it should be addressed this season rather than pushing it off for another year.

I'm a Zach fan and even I want Dru to play just because.  Worst case scenario is we do our regular thing vs teams we should beat and lose(why do we do that anyhow?).

Would be nice for Dru to lay a 50 burger on them though.  I don't think there'd be a QB controversy after that, there may already be one within the fans.  I think the QB room is pretty good within themselves though. Except Elgersma, I'm unsure he's happy with his situation atm.

As soon as you make Dru the starter, your in a situation like Adams and Rourke. Each will have supporters in the locker room and divided and for someone like OShea its not acceptable.
 If Zac fails then its a decision
Especially after just one game with Dru where teams arent yet prepared to defend him in our offence
