WINNIPEG - Blue Bombers quarterback Brian Brohm will make his first CFL start under less than ideal conditions. The Winnipeg backup will be throwing behind a revamped offensive line when he fills in for regular starter Drew Willy (hand) on Saturday against the visiting Calgary Stampeders. Brohms team is also mired in a six-game losing skid while Calgary has lost just twice this season and leads the CFLs overall standings. You can watch the game tonight starting at 7pm et/4pm pt on TSN1, TSN3, TSN4 and TSN 5. Brohm, who got word Friday morning that he would start, said hes up for the challenge. Yeah we have some new guys that are getting their first experience just like me, so we dont know exactly how theyre going to perform, he said. But we have confidence in them that theyre going to go out there and do the job. I feel good about those guys up front. Hopefully they feel good about me throwing the ball behind them. Were going to go out there as a group and do our best. Calgary (12-2) is coming off a bye week and can clinch first place in the West Division with a victory. A loss will provide another blow to Winnipegs fading playoff hopes. The Stampeders will have starting quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell back in the lineup after he missed three games with knee and ankle injuries. Very, very eager, Mitchell said when asked how hes feeling. Im definitely just ready to get back on the field with the guys. Brohm, who has played in three games this season, filled in for Willy in last weeks 41-9 loss to Edmonton. Willy fumbled in the second quarter and then hurt his right hand when he lunged and fell while trying to stop Eskimos linebacker Dexter McCoil. Bombers head coach Mike OShea said Willy just didnt have enough grip strength in his right hand to make longer throws so it was a no-brainer to start Brohm, who took all the reps this week. The six-foot-three Brohm was a 2008 draft pick of the NFLs Green Bay Packers. He was later waived and picked up by Buffalo, but his last start with the Bills was in 2010. This will be the first time the Stampeders and Bombers have played each other this season. Calgary head coach John Hufnagel said he isnt too familiar with Brohm. I know that he throws the ball very well, he said. He can be dangerous. Were going to have to be ready for him. Brohm signed with the Bombers last year, but injured his left elbow in a pre-season game and didnt see action again. He almost started a game a few weeks ago but Willy recovered from a shoulder injury in time to make the start. Stampeders running back Jon Cornish missed one day of practice this week with the flu, but hes ready to continue his climb up the rushing ladder. Hes at 817 yards on the season, just 32 behind leader Anthony Allen from Saskatchewan. Bombers linebacker Johnny Sears said hes looking forward to going up against Cornish. We know what he brings, he said. We know what the whole team brings. Theyve got a good offensive line so weve got to make sure we stay in our gaps. Weve got to be stout against this run game this week. Sears was moved to linebacker this week from halfback and backup defensive back Don Unamba is starting at linebacker. Winnipegs defence has allowed a league-high 129.3 yards rushing per game. Calgarys is the second stingiest at 91.2 yards. The Stamps defence is also second in the league with 18.8 points allowed per game, while the offence is tops with 28 points per game. Mitchell said Winnipegs defence, which has allowed the second-most points per game (27.1), is better than the numbers suggest. I think theyve been put in some tough situations and given short fields on defence so I think the stats kind of lie a bit, Mitchell said. Theyre better than what the stats show. Winnipegs revamped offensive line features Jace Daniels, who arrived in Winnipeg on Oct. 7 and replaced injured left tackle Glenn January (back). Matthias Goossen will suit up for his second game of the season at right guard. Centre Steve Morley, right guard Devin Tyler and Chris Greaves at left guard round out the group. The last two games, weve got blown out both games and now we have the No. 1 team coming in Calgary, Morley said. Its not impossible, but I think if everything goes right we have a chance to pull this one out. Winnipeg also had some upheaval this week in the backfield. Starting running back Nic Grigsby asked for and received his release after he was told hed be sitting out for a second straight game in favour of Paris Cotton. Cotton has 19 carries for 51 yards this season, including eight for 31 yards last week against Edmonton. I approach everything as a pro, Cotton said. That situation (with Grigsby) was unfortunate, but it hasnt changed me at all. Notes: The Stampeders are changing their field-goal unit. Receiver Brad Sinopoli (a former quarterback) will hold for placekicker Rene Paredes instead of punter Rob Maver. … Calgary is 6-1 on the road this season while the Bombers are 3-4 at home. Winnipeg is 1-6 against West Division opponents while the Stampeders are 5-1. Ricky Wagner Jersey .

It doesnt help that reporters keep asking him about it, each question ripping off another part of the scab. "Every day I wake up, its still frustrating and its still baffling (as) to why I wasnt selected," he said Saturday. "But youve got to move on." The 31-year-old striker wrapped up a week that started with his relegation to Englands World Cup taxi squad with a rocket of a goal to help Toronto FC to a 2-0 win over the New York Red Bulls before 22,591 on a sunny afternoon at BMO Field. In truth, Defoe could have had even more on the day. But his 12th-minute blast into the top of the Red Bulls goal spoke volumes. "Thats exactly how I thought he would react," said Toronto manager Ryan Nelsen, "A brilliant goal, wasnt it? "Thats Jermain Defoe. And thats why England will miss him dearly, I think, come World Cup time." Red Bulls star Thierry Henry was also full of praise. "Jermain Defoe has been doing this since he was 14 years old and as long as he plays he will do that," said the French forward. Defoe downplayed the significance of his strike, "because Ive been doing that for my whole career. And people know that." "Thats what Ive done since Ive been over here," added Defoe, who now has four goals in five MLS games. "Its not my first goal Ive just continued to do what I do. Work hard and stay positive and get my goals." But prompted again, Defoe acknowledged the goal was a littler sweet. "Its only normal, when you get disappointment, to try and prove people wrong. And just to remind people that, at the end of the day, this is what Im doing. And I think I did that today." Defoe, who has 19 goals and 55 caps for his country, could still be called up to the 23-man main England squad in event of injury. Defoe didnt even see his goal go in. He hit it and went flying as a defender clattered into him. "It was funny because I was on the floor," he said. "I looked at the crowd and everyone was celebrating it so I thought OK, it went in." Englands loss is clearly Torontos gain. "Hes a massive part of whats going on here. Our talisman, so to speak. He gets the goals that win us games," midfielder Bradley Orr said of Defoe. Luke Moore scored late in stoppage-time as Toronto snapped its three-game losing streak. On a day where Arsenal won the FA Cup at Wembley, former Gunners star Henry -- while showing flashes of his brilliance -- was relegated to a supporting role as the Red Bulls saw their 10-game unbeaten streak against Toronto snapped. Both Defoe and Henry made their names scoring goals for north London clubs in the English Premier League. Defoe collected 153 goals for Tottenham while the 36-year-old Henry potted 228 for Arsenal. The New York attack also featured English forward Bradley Wright-Phillips, who came into the game leading MLS with nine goals this season. Toronto (4-4-0) had lost four out of its last five games after opening the MLS campaign with two consecutive wins. New York (3-4-5) was coming off an ugly 5-4 loss to the previously winless Chicago Fire, which snapped its four-game undefeated streak. And the Red Bulls looked slopppy Saturday, turning the ball over in the early going.dddddddddddd A poor pass from fullback Kosuke Kimura led to Torontos first goal when Orr beat Dax McCarty to the ball in midfield and drove forward. He spotted Defoe and slotted a perfect pass, with the striker hammering a right-footed rocket into the top of the net in the 12th minute. Orr, a defender, moved into midfield to help fill the void left by Michael Bradley (with the U.S. World Cup team), Brazilian winger Jackson (concussion) and newly acquired Collen Warner (suspended). He gave all the credit to Defoe on the goal, saying he made the move that created the opening for the pass. "He makes your mind up. His movements that good. World-class. He makes your mind up," said Orr, who had a fine game. Moore, in his home debut, scored his first goal for Toronto with a tap-in after a defensive miscommunication. A long goal kick by Torontos Joe Bendik turned into disaster for New York when goalie Luis Robles collided with defender Chris Duval, leaving Moore to dribble the ball in. Still it was far from a complete performance from an undermanned Toronto squad. At times, the Red Bulls sliced through the home side but could not finish. Toronto wobbled early in the second half and New York missed a glorious opportunity to tie it in the 62nd minute when Wright-Phillips, facing an empty goal, shockingly skied the ball after Bendik palmed away a dangerous cross. Both teams have lost stars to the World Cup: fullback Roy Miller (Costa Rica) and midfielder Tim Cahill (Australia) for New York and Bradley (U.S.) for Toronto. Goalie Julio Cesar, who had been slated to play for Toronto on Saturday before joining Brazil, was out with the flu. The game may cost Toronto. Midfielder Jonathan Osorio played the whole game despite having his hand stepped on in the opening minutes. He was due for an X-ray later, amid fears of a fracture. Toronto started rookie Nick Hagglund at centre back, shifting Doneil Henry to the bench. In his last three games, the 21-year-old Canadian international has given up two penalties and a giveaway that led to a goal. Nelsen offered a different explanation, saying Henry had played 120 minutes during the midweek Amway Canadian Championship semifinal in Vancouver and had a sore quad and head knock. "I just felt like he needed a rest and Nick had kind of deserved his chance," Nelsen said. Faced with one of the games greats in Henry, Hagglund acquitted himself well on the day. Henry introduced himself to Hagglund by racing past the rookie and then felling him with a late tackle that earned a yellow card in the sixth minute. On the plus side, Hagglund got to shake hands with a repentant Henry. A laughing Hagglund said his thought at the time was "Foul me again, Ill shake your hand again." The Red Bulls had not lost to Toronto since June 24, 2009, a 7-0-3 stretch that saw them outscore TFC 25-5. "Obviously, the first half we werent good enough," said New York coach Mike Petke, who took solace in an improved second-half showing. "The pitch was a bit bobbly but that was no excuse for how bad on the ball we were. We had too many giveaways, too many loose passes and too many instances where we gave them the ball back too easily."
