Fajardo *is* a better option for Saskatchewan until they fix that o-line. Whomever their QB is, he is going to be low on the list of things wrong with the Riders. Cody wasn't really the problem last year either. O'Day has built a poor culture, made terrible cap management decisions, and hired a coaching staff that can't maximize (or recognize) the abilities of their players. Tracker 1

If your team lets Faj cosplay a CFL starting QB, that is a HUGE problem for your team... Tracker and Bigblue204 1 1

Faj sucks. 100% agree. But they've won games with him before and easily could have done better this past year. Lean in to the running game, accept that he is not moving the ball down field and game plan around a shorter passing game, commit resources to your D, not on a 250k deep threat that Faj can't get the ball to. I don't know if it was arrogance or ignorance, but it came from the top down. Tracker, Bigblue204 and BigBlueFanatic 2 1

Noeller Posted January 17, 2023 Author Report Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) the massive OL they signed from WHSFL looks like quite a talent, as well. Only 17 and already an absolute monster... Edited January 17, 2023 by Noeller Wideleft, Tracker, rebusrankin and 1 other 4

JCon Posted January 17, 2023 Report Posted January 17, 2023 You would think, based on all the coverage from the CFL, TSN and their mouthpieces, that Rourke was coming to the CFL.

I get that his going to the NFL maybe entices other players to choose the CFL over say the XFL or whatever.... helps the CFL with recruiting........ but enough.

However, I would guess as I don’t follow 2nd 3rd 4th string NFL qb’s he’s the exception to the rule. Noeller 1

Once it's obvious that he's not going downfield very often, opposing Ds will crank up the pressure. Noeller 1

My brother knows the Adamson family (Bombers 2022 draftee) and he says the Adamson grocery bills were no less than $600/ week. And this was before recent hyperinflation.
