This is how we lost the BC game. Going to have to take some risks to win this game.
My wife is amazing!

That plus the defence deciding to not play in the 2nd half.
Money is no object...especially when you have none.

Time for Brownie to step and show that he can be the starting QB for this team go forward. I really think ZC8 will retire at the end of the season. Just to many head injuries to keep playing. 
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Agree that this is make-or-break for Dru's prospects as a starting QB in this league both tonight and possibly the next several games (or rest of the season). I'm good with designing a game plan to hide his weaknesses and keep the offense on the field but my expectation of Druski is that he plays like a real QB: makes good decisions expediently in the pocket on pass plays, executes throws accurately, reads defenses and doesn't give them turnovers, and gets rid of the ball safely when the play isn't working and we are facing loss of yards.

Supposed to be nearly 20*C throughout the entire evening and no chance of rain. Not bad for the end of September. Everyone have fun tonight and hopefully we pull out the W.
#Ride?

Needless to say

GO BLUE

We're almost out the door. Should be a fun one!
Never go full Johnston!

Doesn't give them turnovers??? The Dru Brown I remember seeing in Ottawa and early this season was a pick machine, so much so, they had to change the playbook to dink and dunk passes as he'd turn the ball over too much. Interesting to see if he gets the full playbook tonight and if so, how many picks he throws

True, in 2024/25 Dru was 32TD and 20Int. ZC8 was 34TD and 31Int.

Wind is nippier than the weather sites say, at least in 200 level. Bring a sweater. I didn't!

Yeah, a lot of people still treating him like he's unproven. He's a legit cfl qb. Hope he has the full playbook tonight. Can't play scared of turnovers on offense

Run block and Brady on point. Brown-Singer connection looking strong early

the fact we went so many games without singer in the lineup is a joke
