Stroud is averaging 291.8 yards a game which puts him just in front of Cousins (291.4) and Tua (289.9).

This pace would put him at 4961 yards for the season which would shatter Luck’s record of 4374 (273 yards a game)–in fact at Stroud’s pace he’d break it after 15 games.

Plus Stroud has a rating of 101, while Luck finished at 76.5.

    If our cities didn’t have a natural rivalry, I would root for Houston in the AFC. Stroud is the real deal and a QB worth building around.

    As a Panthers fan, I’m so upset we got Bryce over him, but I wonder if CJ was here, would we have ruined him too? Our organization is such a dumpster fire right now

      lol: imagine if Bryce was in Houston on track for a 5000 yard season and we were talking about how S2 flunker CJ Stroud was an obvious bust in Carolina and “how could we be so stupid!”

        Not a chance. Put Davis Mills back in with this roster and they’re bottom feeders just like the last 3 years., and the Browns would be following every game as they race to the no1 pick.

      Technically your org took Corral over Howell and Bryce over Stroud. But I do think a new Regimen wouldn’t have given Howell a chance the same way the didn’t get Corral one

      I can’t say CJ would be having as good of a season as he is now, but I do think your offense plays better and he’d make your WRs better. A lot of CJ’s production is a combination of CJ being HIM and Slowik knowing what to do with HIM.

    Stroud and Howell…you know, like everyone expected.

    Looks like both teams have their QBs. Now it’s just everything else.

    Yep, QB yardage leaders CJ Stroud and Sam Howell. Just like I predicted coming into this year…

    I legit wanted to Lions to take him at 6 if he fell even knowing we already had a top QB in Goff. He looks absolutely amazing.

      Idk maybe it’s a good thing that someone who scored so poorly is playing well, so that people realize how stupid it is to make quarterbacks take a test.

    Our defense made CJ Stroud look unstoppable with Singletary and Noah Brown with just them two and Tank Dell they put up 500 yards of offense and basically ran the same PlayStation and killed us with it.

    It’s kinda wild how the AFCS went from being a poverty division in terms of qb talent to a division where every team may have found their guy in like, a season and a half. And yes I’m counting AR in that cuz he looked pretty good before he got injured.

      Are we counting the Titans and Will Levis in that mix? The the jury still feels out on that after Levis’ first game where he got lucky on a few 50/50 balls to DHop. The Steelers and Bucs games left a lot to be desired, and it’s not like those secondaries haven’t been carved up this season.
