Ricky Ray Injury - Out 4-6 Weeks

[BATKINSON001]

I tweeted to Argos that if Mathews starts over Fajardo my opinion of Trestman takes a hit. Am thinking about a telephone call, just called and pressed Football operations but busy signal, will try later. 416 341 2700

somehow I don't think copeland or moore will take your call.

Marc Trestman has more football knowledge in a clipping from his TOENAIL than you do, whomever he decides to start will be the proper call. I love your passion for Cody, but stop pretending you know how to make this call. NONE of us Argofan posters have the knowledge or experience that Coach Trestman and his staff have.

That said, I liked a kid named John Congemi, and always was cheering for him to play more. We all are entitled to our favs

Save yourself the humiliation and don't make the call.

Wow!
She is now posting on CFL.ca as "Daisy Mae" - almost verbatim - her prose about Fajardo's numbers from last week, and how she is disgusted with Trestman.

Surely, she can't be serious. We have clearance, Clarence. What's our vector, Victor?

Sorry, this has to be something out of Airplane, right?

You have absolutely nothing to base that on, we only had him in once ever aside from short yardage, he has been virtually perfect in short yardage, threw at least 1 TD last year on a 3rd down, he has done everything we have asked of him. Last week his first game action as a QB in 4th qtr, he lead team to 14 points, including a nice running TD, A long pass to Green. What games did you see that I missed? You have nothing to base that statement on. He was cold off the bench. If Mathews starts my opinion of Trestman takes a big hit. Even if Matthews is great, it still wont be right because Cody would have been robbed of the chance to be great as well. He was 6 of 11 for 75 yards and I think 55 yards rushing, yet Mathews gets to go in with reps???

Actually I was going on My Opinion.

[Shirley]

Was quite a reach to say he is not ready, opinions are great but you made it sound if you saw something in his play that determined he was somehow not up to it. He has been virtually perfect in short yardage, and the one time he gets in , plays 4th qtr, cold with no reps off the bench, did a darn fine job, 6 0f 11 for 75 yards, a long bomb to Green, another he should have had, took the team to 2 field goals, rushed for 55 yards, including nice td run, on top of that he threw basically the equivalent of a TD pass for successful 2 point conversion.

Imagine what he would have done with reps, now it looks like he will basically be demoted while Mathews gets to go in with reps, simply unfair to me.

And yes it takes me back to former managements, such as forcing Kerry Joseph on a coach that did not want him, coach Stubler was quite happy with Bishop so were the players

Bart Andruss, getting rid of Arland Bruce

Milanovich and Barker trading away the big 3 saying they were trouble makers

My sister has season tickets, I did years ago but am north as a care giver to loved one, she says in her section they are all high on Cody, she and her 3 friends that go to all games feel the same as i, and they state it`s like that in her entire section, comments such as Hey this Cody Fajardo is the real deal, along those lines, so for the team to shiet on cody is just unsportsmanlike

I might even argue same idea as Flutie being benched in Buffalo for Rob Johnson after Flutie took them to playoffs, Big named qbs in states such as Steve Young stated it was just bad for football to do such a thing. If Cody does not start they are crapping on him, no 2 ways about it

Wanna bet all the Ted White fans were saying the same thing about Anthony Calvillio getting all the reps?

HAHA....your very entertaining

Fajardo is a promising young QB but I've seen many backup QB's look like world beaters late in blowout games.
Once again Trestman is no fool and will play the QB that gives the Argos the best chance at success which is what any fan should want.

You really want to cite this as a bad move? Two of the three are no longer in the league.

[Neely2005]

The coaches are really the only ones who have seen enough of both Fajardo and Matthews to make a fair evaluation. I'd go with Fajardo over Matthews but I trust the coaching staff to do what's best for the team. If Ray is healthy it won't even matter.

[Wobbler]

Ray won't play.

[gilthethrill]

I expect to see both Fajardo and Matthews get playing time Friday night. Trap game for Montreal.

[R.J]

While I'm not a big fan of Matthews starting over, especially since I think Fajardo has a much higher ceiling, Trestman knows QB's, if Matthews doesn't move the ball he'll be replaced eventually (hopefully). I'm just happy that they're protecting Prukop, but I hope Trestman starts giving more practice reps to the young guys, Ray taking "almost" 100% of the reps is asking for trouble IMO.

[ArgoZ]

Trestman has to go with his gut. It's what got him the job here. If he's more comfortable with or believes Mathews gives the better chance, then so be it. Once Fajardo can learn to progress through his reads and hence become a respectable passer, he will become a nice double threat with his mobility. It's going to take time, he has a huge upside, but let's be patient.
