More than likely it is either an illness of a close relative or his partner may be having a baby.

Exactly.  Give the guy the time he needs - I am sure it is important

From Darren Cameron, Blue Bombers:

Please note the following lineup change for tonight's game:

Quarterback Dru Brown (#6) will remain on the roster but is scratched from tonight's lineup and will not dress.

Fine... We'll keep it simple and assume it's a family matter or something.
Hopefully all is okay with his family

It's really non of our business.  It's not football related. He remains on the roster. End of story.

So, second week in a row we dress less than the full roster...

OK...
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.

Well, official roster size is 44. Teams can elect to dress an extra National or Global player as a 45th player. The Bombers have been doing that by dressing a second Global player.

So, the team isn't dressing less than a full roster. They will still have 44 on the field (and rostering 45.)

Normally I'd be irate, but from an odds point of view we really don't need a 3rd QB.  We played a whole season without one.  I like having a 3rd QB, but for one game it's not a big deal.  (knock wood)
Never go full Rider!

TSN turning point. 
We have always been a second half team. Good game so far.

The Zipp

Run the ball with BO

Keep the pressure on Maier

O line give Zach some time

We win the second half
