when you look at the Als roster, and have  QB not named The Faj....but a legit one they would be fairly formidable

Bo not starting is odd.

I was thinking the same thing. Makes you think there's a lot more going on here that we don't know about.

Really? He shouldn't have been starting at any point this season.

I listened to Ferguson describe the "situation" on Hustler's show. When the podcast comes out, I find the timing, and you can listen too. 

It's complicated.

They seemed to be getting him ready. He's their 500k qb. He played his best ball in years the past few weeks....as far as I know he's not hurt. I'd be pissed if I was the GM. A backup qb at that price is hard to swallow.

If this was true, he'd be starting, no questions asked.

Who starts doesn't matter much as long as they use both, Steinauer is screwing with their heads so they won't know what to expect, not a bad strategy to keep them off balance.  If they can make Fajardo uncomfortable and contain his runs, they should have a decent chance of winning the game.  Fajardo is a tough nut but he usually cracks at some point.

here's a piece of that convo (tho this is the Bombers centric part)...... the full pod is now up on YT.

Which is why it's so confusing.

Fair enough 

I can see Orlondo outcoaching Maas. 

Platooning his QBs might be one of a  few ways that he accomplishes it.

Well that's a low bar...

 

Never understood how Maas keeps getting roles.

He did a great job in turning chicken **** into chicken salad.

Errr... the HC is also the GM. So, Steinhauer must be doing this...

fyp.

Score predictions? 
I’d go 
Ticats 31 Als 27

Lions 35 Stamps 19

TiCats over Als 25-22

Lions over Stamps 32-15

I don't expect any upsets today, big picture it will be the Bombers and Argos in the Grey Cup 

I'd love to see Calgary win today but picking BC.

I think its Hamilton over Montreal.

Forecast for next weekend looks great. Lets sell the place out!

BC 27 CGY 17

MTL 24 HAM 21

I think the MTL/HAM game is toughest call. On paper MTL should win, but...

MBB Pickem's perfectly split 50/50 on HAM/MTL right now

14 td passes and 12 picks just screams quality QB. Oh wait, it screams should not be a starter.

Say what you wants about the Faj ,that team scares me . If they move past Hammy today ,i truly believe they can beat the Argos.

Fajardo is quick to draw a line in the sand, then spends his days worrying about what people on the other side of the line are saying about him.
