Barron Miles will be looking for new work IMO. Redblacks defence was bad all year. How do you win TOP by 17 minutes in the 1st half and give up 20 points?

I feel sorry for Brown but he played well expect for maybe that pic 6 at the end of the game.

Chad Kelly and the Argos. You don't deserve this success. Idiotic franchise.

Amos is injuried but might be ok

And that is why we kept Zach instead of Dru.  Dru did great for a 1st year starter.  But in the end he couldn't get it done.  Not all his fault, but those 2 pick-6's are basically death in a playoff game.

Anyone who think we should have ditched Zach for Dru needs to be forced to watch this game Clockwork Orange-style for 12 hours straight!

P.S. I bet Dru does much better next playoffs.

So many were calling for Zachs head early on and singing the should have kept Brown blues.  Agree about the picks and agree he will bounce back next year.  A good QB that will be great one day, just not today.

TOR didn't esacpe unscathed.  I think Amos is out the rest of the way.  That's a blown knee that got kicked while planted.  That'll hurt their 2ndary next week.

The big shocker for me is EITS taking Kelly out of the game for protocol??  Usually in playoffs they really let those slide.  Kelly bounced up immediately and looked fine.  Man, if they do this to Zach I'm gonna be livid.

Also: overturning the sneak TD.  Wow.  I've never seen that in a playoff game before!  I guess evidence was good enough, but still!  (I thought it was a TD live, but refs are being extra cautious calling these GL stands.)

You're assuming Dru doesn't do better with us than he did with the Redblacks. Which I think is a big assumption.

You're also implying that Zach has played well this year. Which is...hard to argue.
My wife is amazing!

Zach knows how to win the big game.  See: last week.  See: every playoff since 2019.  (Yes, 2 GC losses, but how many post-season wins in the same span?)

Winning the big games usually boil down to experience.  (For both the QBs and the coaches/coords.)

Not sure if that's an argument you can reasonably make given Zach's performances in play-offs.

Not sure how to read that.  Elaborate.  If you're saying he's lackluster... I'd say: doesn't matter, he wins.  If Zach only needs 225Y to win, so be it.  (Go listen to Nikki Lauda's philosophy.)

A) I would hope that the Injury Spotter (separate from the Command Centre) would remove any QB, including Collaros, if he took a blow to the head.

B) After Kelly's (post game) self diagnosis of a concussion in the 2023 playoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if the Injury Spotter wasn't extra careful with him this year.
