This was the game I was waiting for to see if I wanted to jump on the Stroud train... and I will say now..... he is not it. You can't be surrrounded by that much talent and then when it's finally time to play legit competition and you come out with this dud. 

I am sure the coaching staff has a bit to do with it as well, but there were too many snaps where I could count to 3 and Stroud still had the ball in his hands unable to commit to decison on getting the ball out.

Stroud couldn't get it done, although that defense was atrocious 2nd half.  Saw some great skills from him but made mistakes when it mattered.  Can't lie even though I do like him.  

Levis and Young time.  

Jayden Daniels watch shortly.

Also VERY excited to see Ward vs. Penix today.  Really curious to who shows up between those two.

I've said all season I didn't like what I saw in Stroud. It's Young for me or taking a flyer on Richardson if he comes out.

You can’t seriously talk about Stroud not getting it done while also supporting Levis…

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
