i'm with you. i'm no fajardo fan, but whats the guy supposed to do when they're coming through the line like it's swiss cheese. a high school squad would be more effective than those guys ahead of him.
been bleeding green for 5o years, but his is really hard to take.

Or maybe the Elks D line is getting better!
When Clarke went down in game 1 of the season no one replaced him or his gamesmanship.

That game last night was pure garbage. The Riders couldn’t run the ball. The O-Line couldn’t block. CF wasn’t making it easy by not getting the ball out quick enough and turtling as soon as he heard footsteps. Kicker missed 2 FG. The D couldn’t stop the run. They couldn’t stop the passes at the end of the game. The Esks gifted huge field position cause of all the penalties. They made the lowly Esks look like world beaters. I’m so glad we didn’t do the 12hr round trip and waste $1000. I was happy I was on my couch watching that high school football performance. And Farjado said he was disappointed the fans were booing. Give us something to cheer about then. 13yds offence in the 2nd half is hardly anything to cheer about.

No. Montreal also had 8 sacks this year. I forget which other team did as well. Your defence isn’t improved. That o-line is that poor.

No kidding. Just remember collaros couldn’t go a season without injury and was “worse” than fajardo. I wonder why collaros is a super star now and not been injured since??? What has changed?

This is all on Jeremy O'Day, he has had 3 YEARS to build a competent offensive line and he has very clearly not done that.
1st in CFL sacks allowed is Sask at 54
2nd in CFL sacks allowed is Toronto at 32
Facts
Riders will crossover and win the East Division Semi-Final but will lose the next week and it'll be next year country once again.
This franchise is in shambles and I am not a chicken little Rider fan.

Hamilton may spoil the riders dreams of crossing over if they play close to the way they did on Saturday.

Riders end of season..or sooner house cleaning. Fire/release :
1- GM Jeremy O day , failed to sign any decent O linemen for 3 years straight
2- Coach Dickenson, Nice guy...to nice
3- OC Mickey Mass , runs bizzare plays at critical points in game...they usually fail
4- QB Cody Fjardo , noodle arm , can't read defense , turtles and runs in circles when the D is bringin it. Never taking Riders to the promised land ..Never. Punt
5- Most of the O Linemen
Fjardo says if they represent the West or the East there will be teams scared to face the Riders... Ti Cats are in the rearview mirror..
Won't lose this wknd cuz they have the bye again. Then Bombers next , Hammy and Stamps back to back to close out season. Will be surprised if they win one of them.

Couldn't have said better my self!
Another rant
Watching a game on TSN is like being in a room full of people completely disinterested in the game being played, doing interviews is for half time not while the games on!

I agree 100%, and at half time the channel gets changed fast so don't have to listen to those clowns interrupting each other steady.
Unlike when Don Wittman , Ronny Lancaster and Leo Cahill were the commentators, it was always interesting.

Fire o'day
Jeremy O'Day should find himself unemployed immediately after the regular season concludes. Absolute failure.

So long Cody happy trails
lot's of talk about Bo Levi coming in, Bo WAS a good QB in his day however since his shoulder injury his accuracy has suffered, Riders need some fresh meat for a pivot.

Vernon Adams is paid pretty well , Montreal paid $190,00 signing bonus and $445,000 salary before he went to Lions. BC would probably trade him when Rourke proves he is healthy as its quite a hit on their cap with both. He might fit in with Riders not all that bad ?? He is only 29 and he is a lot more dynamic then plow horse Fjardo.

Doubtful they'll have any interest in letting him go. His 2023 contract is closer to $150k with a top end of a bit over $200k depending on how many starts he makes and how he performs.

If Bombers D does not knock Rourke out of game BC could give them a pretty good run.
Toronto and Montreal...who cares. But hope Toronto wins so the dork/s in Montreal with the air horns are gonzo

Whether it was West Final jitters, a vexing Bombers defence, or the mechanical aftershocks of his ailing foot, B.C.’s young phenom laid an egg in his biggest-ever CFL game. For much of the first half, his play bordered on unwatchable. The passes in question were certainly uncatchable, as he opened the contest by throwing five straight wild incompletions and entered the break with an abominable stat line of 7-of-17 for 87 yards and an interception.
Rourke rebounded somewhat in the second half and made the contest interesting late in the fourth quarter, finishing 20-of-37 for 300 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. However, a good portion of that yardage came from a handful of splash plays and routine completions still seemed to elude him. Some balls were high, others low, and many behind, but all ended up on the turf.
The sad reality is that this was a winnable game for the Lions, with M.O.P favourite Zach Collaros hardly looking like a world-beater himself. But they couldn’t do it without Rourke and on this occasion, they needed to.

Looks like Bo Levi will be a Tigercat.[unless negotiations go real sour]
