It does. Cony Ealy played his best game in the superbowl. Would have been MVP had we won. 
CJ had 1 month to prepare for 1 opponent. Don’t get me wrong, he answered all questions we had for 2 yrs on that game. But that’s also my issue. We had consistent questions with mobility, lack of creation out of structure for 2 yrs, couldn’t handle pressure. How do we know that the GA game was not a fluke?

Some QBs can get hot for 1 game. Some for even a stretch (Nick foles) but can they consistently do it? I don’t think CJ can, but if we draft him, I’ll hope I’m wrong. 

It's Kony Ealy.  

Comparing Kony Ealy to CJ Stroud is one hell of a stretch.  CJ Stroud has had sustained success at a major program and delivered a monster performance in the biggest game of the year.  He was consistently good all year and has great leadership qualities.  He also showed out at the combine.  He has the best in pocket footwork of all the qbs and delivers the ball with deadly accuracy. 

I remember when we drafted Kony Ealy, Ealy was the complete opposite.  Positionally and personality wise.

CJ has huge questions marks. B4 the GA game, some thought he was falling outside of top 10 because of these questions.

lack of mobility.

lack of out of structure play making ability. 

He answered every question on that 1 game which was his best performance of 2 yrs against the best competition.

 

so the question is, can he do that all the time? Why didn’t it do it in other games Whr he struggled?

Michigan (twice)

Iowa

Maryland

Compare his 2 years to almost anybody’s in college.. Then come and talk to me.. 

Stop trying to act like 8,125 yards passing 85 tds and 12 ints with a comp% of 69.3 and a QB rating of 180.00 in 2 years comes down to 1 game…

Stroud has that poise. Unafraid. Doesn't panic, always thinking, calculating. He's a day one off top. No questions here. He could start like Cam did.

Lol. Let HOUSTON decide between Young, Levis, AR.

That's a more difficult puzzle to solve.

To me the physical differences would factor in more greatly especially long term with CJ out of the mix and wearing black and blue.

What if Houston also has their eyes on Stroud and they targeted him for their new QB.

OK, I am Reich, Caldwell, and McCown and I am talking QB.  

Start with Caldwell, who was successful with players like Peyton Manning, Joe Flacco, and Matthew Stafford.  Starting to see a "type" forming?  Tall pocket passers.

McCown and Reich were tall, pocket passers.  In my opinion, once they do a deep dive into the film, they will see skills in Stroud that separate him from Levis and Richardson.  His size will separate him from Young.

There are not 2 QBs atop the Panther board right now--only 1.

    • Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.
    • It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now. 
    • The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
