Winnipeg @ Ottawa

This is a game we should win. I would think DB4 would love to start this game against his old team back in Ottawa. The boys have to stay focused.

Start Brown, let him hang 50 points on Ottawa just to rub Dimwittie's face in it.

Sir Blue and Gold · July 11, 2026, 02:42:22 PM

Another week of Dru please.

Blue In BC · July 11, 2026, 03:49:37 PM

It wouldn't hurt to get Brown more playing time against a weaker opponent. We don't really know the extent of injury to Collaros so letting him sit for another week might not be the worst outcome.

If Brown starts we need to see the playbook opened up a bit more. We nearly eliminated Oliveria as a receiving option, didn't throw to Daniels at all.

Watch the Dru pressers. Pregame, postgame, everything. He's so even-keeled it's not even funny. And he doesn't talk smack at all about OTT: the opposite in fact. I don't think he'd be fired up either way to play OTT.

Like I said: the Kimi Raikonen of football.

Oh he d be fired up alright guaranteed. I hope he gets the start it would be awesome

Ottawa will be hungry and desperate, time to stomp the neck

Two teams that are currently the lowest scoring in the CFL. I'm not expecting a sudden explosion of points in this game regardless of who plays.

Yeah, Jake Meier threw 4 picks against the Elks whereas DB threw one albeit that was one of his few mistakes of his first game back....with only one practice under his belt!

If Zac is healthy he plays, period. Last thing the team wants is a qb controversy

"It's over and done with now. Obviously got a lot of relationships over there with some of the players and love those guys. But we each have different issues, different situations," said Brown.

"I wish them the best. But I'm focused on what we've got going on over here and excited to roll forward with it."

I will be surprised if it is not Zach. He has extra time to heal for this one.

Let's see ...we have a quarterback who knows his former team inside and out....I know which quarterback I'm starting....and it ain't ZC....NO BRAINER

That's obviously going to be the team's position. We all know that.

That doesn't stop the QB controversy though. Fans are asking for Dru and you gotta think some of the players are too.

Pigskin · July 12, 2026, 07:07:26 PM

Looks like the boys will not practice until Tuesday. With the heat I don't expect the practices to be very long.

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
