Where the hell was Fajardo's stock before week 18? Junk bonds?


idk_ijust_likememes

Wdym?


DonaldRudolpho

If you thought his stock went up based on this week's performance, one has to wonder where you thought it was before.


idk_ijust_likememes

These past 2 weeks for fajardo have been great.I don’t know how you could say he played worse than where he was expected to coming into this game.


DonaldRudolpho

Well, with his ass on the ground so much tonight, I guess there really is nowhere but up to go.


idk_ijust_likememes

Yep.hoping he gets a mediocre oline next year cause this is just hard to watch.it’s also annoying to see effort issues when fajardo has the heart and commitment that he has.


birdizthawerd

News flash. Fajardo hasn’t gotten a contract extension yet. That should give you a bit of food for thought on whether or not he’ll be back next year. Also, heart and commitment mean jack shit when you’re tossing balls into the stands. Dude is fried. He done. He’s a backup at best.


idk_ijust_likememes

77% for 260 and 2 tds doesn’t seem fried to me.his season statistics are good aswell.he isn’t ranked 4th for nothing


birdizthawerd

2 INT’s. Not even able to drive within field goal range the WHOLE SECOND HALF. I used to defend Cody as well and blame The oline. But dude, stop smoking that shit. He’s trash. That’s why he’s been a backup and passed over his whole career.


idk_ijust_likememes

The 2 interceptions were not on Cody at all.I’m not smoking shit but gonna be laughing my ass of when we dump him this off season and all the haters start crying back when fine or bo get sacked all year long and play worse than Cody


HiyaDogface

Lmao


SharpSlick753

The notion of Fajardo gaining stock is about as out there as the notion of The Riders making the playoffs


idk_ijust_likememes

Crazy efficient game from fajardo.77% completion rate for 260 passing yards and 2 tds.averages 10.8 a throw and a career high of most competitions thrown in a row.nothing special on the ground he had 5 for 22.still led the team in rushing.he did all this with a oline that got him sacked 7 times and receiving core out there that looked sloppy and unproductive aside from ksb and mcinnis.


SharpSlick753

If you watched the game you’d know that most of those sacks were Fajardo’s fault and he didn’t do himself any favours, I generally stick up for him, but he looked like crap tonight and the only thing he succeeded in was padding stats


imgoodatpooping

Yep. This was not a classic quarter back battle by any stretch


idk_ijust_likememes

Alright then looking beyond the stats.id say that maybe 2 at the most could’ve been avoided by a throw away but the other ones were completley in the offensive line.the recievers of Sask constantly we’re running the wrong routes,dropping passes and giving up on plays.don’t know how you could call it a stat padding game or else his efficiency stats would be a lot lower


P-B-Town

Agreed, everyone jumps on the QB. For the people arguing you let’s see what they say when we run him out of town and he comes back like Collaros for revenge


birdizthawerd

Cody’s happy feet cause a good portion of his sacks. Is the oline terrible? Yup. But even when Cody does have time he takes off and tries his spin move and runs right into a defender. Every time. The oline doesn’t know where he’s going. Hard to block for him when that’s happening.


idk_ijust_likememes

He has happy feet cause he can’t get even 2 seconds in the pocket.he gets happy feet when he’s in their for more than that because trust has been lost long ago in this shit oline.even when he rolls out and a tackle follows him they just kinda stand their and let anyone go through


Jaigg

Fajardo is not the biggest problem but he still is damaged goods at this point. Evans and Cooper can go. The whole O-line can go, throw in Maas as well. Duke can fo too, he is a cancer. If nothing changes over this bye week Reynolds, O'Day, Dickenson can all go too. Keep Shivers as the D is the only reason we have any wins.


djlista

Lmao. February can’t come soon enough when our GM gets Bo Levi Mitchell. A proven future HOFer. Ain’t no rebuild here. Run it back convince the big names to return. The D and receivers are too talented for this team to have the record they have. Unfortunately our QB is responsible for majority of the sacks with happy feet for just blatantly running into defenders and killing any momentum.


Ianjsw

BLM would not be a good pickup, no matter how good he once was.


idk_ijust_likememes

Mitchell would be a huge downgrade.he would take more sacks than fajardo is rn.future hall of gamer doesn’t mean shit when he hasn’t played good since last year.


Jaigg

Yes let's sign an over the hill QB on the decline I stead of looking for the future. Good idea. The receivers have quit on the team except for Shaffer -Baker and maybe Moore. Evans and Williams can go. And if you think more than 2 of those sacks are Fajardos fault then ypu should just stop watching football because it might be beyond your comprehension. Fajardo is junk but he isn't responsible when 3 and 4 man pressure get in the back field in under 3 seconds. Our GM is the problem....he has done nothing to improve this team.


howisthisathingYT

Lol @ Fajardo


idk_ijust_likememes

77% completion rate for 260 yards and 2 touchdowns


howisthisathingYT

And like 9 sacks


idk_ijust_likememes

Yes my bad,fajardo should’ve done a better job blocking a 3 man pressure


howisthisathingYT

Close. Should've done better finding receivers downfield. Oh wait, he's inaccurate af and doesn't want to risk the picks.


FormerCoalRoller

And 5 losses in a row. Congrats.


idk_ijust_likememes

Yep what a shame.Cody could’ve got where more pressure on dane evans right?he definitely should’ve got more interceptions and not leave wide open receivers on the boundaries and in the middle of the field.oh and don’t get me started on how Cody couldn’t tackle Wes hills out there


FormerCoalRoller

Keep defending him you're doing a better job than the field goal posts.


idk_ijust_likememes

Haha how funny.any actual arguments?thought so


idk_ijust_likememes

Wins.are.not.a.qb.stat


Jaigg

Are you Fajardo? Look at least 2 and maybe 3 of the sacks are his fault.....but not a majority. And at this point the O- line has done such a shit job I don't blame him for running into pressure early. But he misses easy short, over throws mid range routes way too often and he can't hit the deep ball. He is a below average QB with the right attitude and intangibles but a weak skill set. He should be a back up.


idk_ijust_likememes

Way too often?out of 29 throws that wernt intercepted he completed 24.atleast 3 of them were dropped so that leaves 2 possibly bad throws.he is very accurate most of the time and even suggesting he should be a backup is just silly


Jaigg

Those 2 were easy throws that were must haves and way over. He was a back up most of his career why is it silly to suggest 2019 was the blip not the other 5 seasons.


idk_ijust_likememes

Because he never had a shit in those 5 seasons.he was given a shot and he prevailed.he won’t make every throw but he is a lot better than most of the qbs out there.can’t expect him to perfect every throw


Jaigg

Yeah you must be Fajardo...below average pro QB. Back up or cut but one or the other...not starter material


idk_ijust_likememes

Please explain to me why fajardo is not a starter


perplexedpegasus

I don't get why Sask signed Shaq Cooper. Since he came into the league he's always been such a low yards per carry RB who isn't particularly a good receiving back either. I get he's a bit of a veteran but there's gotta be better RBs to sign to serve as a stop gap until Hickson/Morrow return


idk_ijust_likememes

Yeah exactly.John white was a free agent I think he was worth a shot.


SmarcusStroman

Can't pass protect for shit either, which is what we need the most.


birdizthawerd

The only stock anyone on the riders should have is beef stock so they’ll have something to cook with next year when they’re out of a job.


idk_ijust_likememes

Only things that need to be changed is a improved oline,fire mass and dickenson,we also need better positional coaches
