Believe me, I think very little of Nichols but he’s the best of the bad QBs in the CFL. I suppose he doesn’t do much for the Riders in this hypothetical scenario because this really should be the time for you guys to seek out the future QB as the roster isn’t great right now and you have the luxury of time with minimal win now pressure.

It’s more than likely true only because Collaros is both terrible and almost certainly nearing the end. It wouldn’t be a massive upgrade but it would be an upgrade.

He does this all the time and there’s no shame in it. Chris Casher, who is on the active roster there now was a Bomber PR guy.

Zontar, do you remember the 1949 Ticats season?

Toronto easily.

Fajardo can’t throw the ball more than 20 yards without throwing it up like a pop fly.

It’s early and he has a terrible QB but it takes every last bit of his effort for SJ Green to get open at this point.

Suitor is wearing the widest tie I’ve ever seen.

What else is there to pan to in the Saskatchewan crowd?

I remember the game at the peak of Grigsby hype against BC where he carried the ball 15 times for 18 yards lol

God I hated Grigsby so much. Never seen a running back go down so easily in my life.

His reign as the TSN anointed next great CFL star was extremely short lived.

I wouldn’t compare Fajardo to Dunigan’s plumber.

“Future star” Fajardo, my ass. Shut the hell up, Suitor.

Offsetting roughing penalties is the stupidest ****.

Reading anything on CFL.ca is an extremely bad idea.

I don’t dispute that casual talent evaluation in the CFL is extremely poor but Franklin’s situation was different. It was a small sample size, but it was overwhelmingly positive. Fajardo has a larger sample size than Franklin did and it’s been overwhelmingly negative up until the last game and a half. And while Ottawa’s defence is only very likely to be very bad, this Toronto defence is already clearly the worst in the league by a wide margin.

I doubt it. Fajardo has been very bad for a reasonably long time.

That’s completely fair and if you were thoroughly unconvinced of his ability to start in this league going into his free agency season, good for you. Lots of smart people thought he was the next great QB, however.

This simply isn’t true. His passing numbers were off the charts.

Really makes you wonder how Franklin looked so good in short bursts for the Esks. Most of us were fooled.

He may be better but it’s not by far. I agree that they have to play him at this point and with this deficit, MBT probably puts up a number of scoring drives but he’s still a very bad QB.

Both guys are extremely bad

This has to be the worst secondary in league history, right?

Saying Toronto is an embarrassment is an insult to embarrassments.
