Early in January, newly hired Edmonton Elks’ head coach and general manager Chris Jones defended the hiring of his former offensive coordinator with the Riders, Stephen McAdoo, by placing the blame for his departure from Saskatchewan on quarterback Cody Fajardo. “I’ll be honest with you, I just look at that and between me and the fence post, I didn’t think Fajardo was a top five guy at quarterback. I know he’s a good runner, I know he’s a winner, but I just don’t see him as a passer,” Jones told Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun. … 🤣😂😂🤣 Edited February 19, 2022 by IC Khari Eternal optimist 1
Booch Posted February 19, 2022 Report Posted February 19, 2022 Of course O'Day gonna defend him....if he doesn't Faj will wilt and pout...his psychie is as fragile as an egg. And yeah he was in top 3 in 2019 cause he was only starter to basically play all year Same with this yr...if BLM...Masoli or Evans ..Harris...played a full slate..he would have been behind Zack.. Reilly and 3 more guys....plus his efficiency...was horrible...and it was laughable for passed 20 or more yards..what was it..like 6 or something?? As much as Jones is a tool...he hit a bullseye on that Sard 1
SpeedFlex27 Posted February 20, 2022 Report Posted February 20, 2022 Jones has Arbuckle & Cornelius. He should worry about his team. Jones has always been an ass clown. Nolby 1

For a pure cfl rookie he did really well. Far better than McGuire with much less. At this point he's a good 2 to 3 qb in the cfl. Bigblue204 1

He'd still be here and they wouldn't need no J. Alfred Prukop standing there with insidious intent, playing as well as a patient etherized upon a table! Mother ******!!!! Jesse and Noeller 2
GCn20 Posted February 22, 2022 Report Posted February 22, 2022 I don't see Prukop as any worse than LeFevour or McGuire. It would be great if a new QB came in and surprised a la Streveler in 2018.

I love a young guy there so I can dream, but it seems to quickly turn into a nightmare when I see them play. Prukop seems the best possible option under the circumstances and I feel like he could manage a game if our D takes over. But whoever is #2, it's still Collaros or bust. Bigblue204 1

For sure...agree on all points. Such is life in the CFL, a team only consistently wins when their starting QB is healthy.
