Winning covers a multitude of problems but losing brings all of the bile to the surface. I've always had poor experiences traveling through and visiting sask. I'll have to avoid it and look out cars with sask plates. Might try and dump a load of manure on my lawn too. They would probably say the cfl illuminati are giving us breaks and extra flags.

17to85 Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Some rider fans realizing what many of us said last year about fajardo. Still plenty more in denial. Noeller and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Slowly tho they are all seeing it...was a smoke and mirrors season last year and this yr they lucky to have those 2 wins vs BC and hardly had that Ottawa game in hand either..and got Hamilton after the beat down and injuries incurred after us.. their 5-3 record this year is just like last year's...not an indicator of a true 5-3 team... wbbfan, Stickem and Noeller 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Out Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) I actually think Cody is still a decent QB. He has a terrible OC and a mediocre line. Not a good recipe for success.

Mark H. Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Smoke and mirrors can happen for a while in the CFL. Remember Toronto with Bishop at QB... wbbfan and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I just find it absolutely hilarious that faj is taking shots at his receivers when you can point to a whole pile of shitty throws giving receivers no chance.

Yeah...that's the rub...a lot of his passes are nowhere close..and a lot he does make are high and reciever gotta climb the ladder to get them and are instantly tackled..a lot of the time right pounded too Noeller and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Or when he has a guy coming across the formation with 20 yards of space to the sideline and upfield and he throws a ball that makes the guy stop and turn to even have a chance to bring it in. Fajardo is great until you expect him to start making some throws. Now he/they have it in their heads that he is a legit QB and they are doing 40+ dropbacks a night, no movement, no designed runs, less scrambling. And he sucks. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Mcadoo was unfairly maligned as oc in Regina. He made a gameplan faj could handle. wbbfan and Geebrr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Fajardo seems to be okay when all around him is at their best, but does not seem to be the leader who will take the game over and drive it when things are not going well. I cannot imagine how much damage he has done to his relationship with his teammates from his recent comments. rebusrankin and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Actually he was MOP runner up and he wasn't that amazing in 2019. IMO, only reason he got the West MOP nod was the Winnipeg media screwing over Andrew Harris and every other western QB missing time due to injury.

Bubba Zanetti Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) Definitely some dissension in the ranks over in Sask. In the post game Fajardo mentions 50/50 balls like 5 times basically saying his current receivers just arnt capable of winning those battles and the passes either fall incomplete of get intercepted. When Dickenson was asked about Fajardo's comments he says "i understand he's frustrated, but theres a right way and a not-so right way of expressing that". Oh boy. Dickenson later says he agrees the receivers need to step up but also says that when Fajardo watches the game tape "he'll see that he made mistakes too". Yikes. Another loss and the Rider house of cards may fall. Edited October 4, 2021 by Bubba Zanetti Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Dickenson is just totally out of his depth as a head coach. rebusrankin, TBURGESS, Noeller and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a borderline team, essentially play extremely rough, edgy, and even dirty, as per RF....where's the evidence or penalties/fines for dirty play? one smart thing said there tho was the suggestion that maybe CF isn't that good and 2019 was a one off...and he is just a back up.....ding ding ding...no **** Also..about the penalties...the Rider players just aren't wired that way to not do retaliation stuff after whistle when teams take liberties against them...so beating and burning them on plays now is taking liberties?? What a bunch of dumbasses I mean come on Booch lol I find Stronson as annoying as anyone but that quote you pulled was said in a complimentary way and you cut out the part right after where he says it’s good coaching and smart football bearpants 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 From the few games that I've watched with the Riders this year, it seems like they take at least 3 - 5 completely avoidable penalties. I think it was in the first series against Calgary where Marshall pushes the reciever down after he had already taken many steps out of bounds which then pushed the ball closer to the goal line. They also seem to take many more no yards and off sides then other teams. wbbfan, TBURGESS and Tracker 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems no coach or GM wants to really get rid of that selfisn Me First culture on the Riders. Guys like Marshall & Gainey are yappers who seem to enjoy selfish & undisciplined play whether it hurts their team or not.

Id love to see the average season wins with each penalty per game from 4 or 5 - 10. 4 hours ago, SpeedFlex27 said: This has been something that goes back to the Shivers-Barrett era 20 years ago.

Wont lie, I liked the offense danny barrett ran. he was way way ahead of the times.
