CALGARY — With two-time reigning CFL most outstanding player Zach Collaros sidelined, quarterback Dru Brown will make his first start of the season on Friday as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (7-2) visit the Calgary Stampeders (3-6).
Brown is coming off a spectacular performance last Thursday in relief of Collaros, who hurt his neck in the second quarter against Edmonton. Down 22-0 at the time, Brown completed 17 of 24 passes for 307 yards and four touchdown passes in leading the Bombers to a 39-29 win for their third consecutive victory.
Despite his inexperience, the Stampeders know containing Brown won’t be easy as the Elks found out last week. “You show up for a night and you execute your game plan and you have a couple bounces go your way, and anything can happen,” said Maier. “Nobody in this league is unbeatable, and nobody in this league has the ability to just show up and walk over you.”
