CJ Stroud Film Breakdown Megathread

Recommended Posts

I will just go ahead and say what I have thought for a while.  CJ Stroud played from a Mr Clean pocket in every game he played outside of Georgia.  He had ridiculous weapons and an OL that let him sit back and be very comfortable.  He has a bust factor and isn’t nearly the finished product people are describing.

His team lost nearly all of his “show me” games.  He is going to struggle if he goes to a bad team.  He has never seen that scenario in his life

So you are saying Young is a god and Stroud is a 100% bust. Nice bias attack on Stroud

I calls em likes I sees em.  If Stroud goes to the Texans he will bust miserably.  If he can’t have a clean pocket he is going to struggle mightily

I personally don’t like how manufactured Stroud is with his game.  Everything was so well structured and made so easy for him.  If you remove the Georgia game he would be completely unproven.  
 

No one can convince me Young didn’t face higher competition week in and week out.  Young always played great regardless of the venue or stage.  Stroud did it 1 game and his team lost the game.

He didn’t vs UM, twice ND 1st game last year and Penn state last year.. And They didn’t lose because of him..

Stroud will be good where ever he goes.. He isn’t a mental midget he has battled hard times most his life and he has stepped up his game in big game.. He has worked hard to have a flawless passing structure from his legs to his upper body.. He is tough can read defenses accurate as fug and rarely makes bad decisions or mistakes.. You call him structure because he has worked hard to make it look that way..

He does make bad decisions. Fortunately for him, college defenses aren't pro defenses. So while he throws a pass into double coverage and the safety mistimes the break on the receiver for what would be a pick (maybe even a pick 6), he looks like he is making a great play. But throw that same ball on Sunday? Reality will hit hard. And I don't think he has shown that he knows how to adapt his game to veer too far off script. The Georgia game was the exception, but even then he left plays on the field. And he played as hard as he did in that game because it had real weight to it. But I don't see that as being a weekly effort.

He is robotic. And he plays the game like he is on auto pilot. He doesn't willingly or easily adapt to turbulence.

Ok. We'll see. The NFL isn't the Big 10. And Ohio State quarterbacks have continued to learn that the hard way.

 

Neither is SEC, ACc, PAC 20, MAC, Mountain west, Whatever Norte Dame is doing none are the NFL.. And I promise you IF Harrison JR was available “the nfl isn’t the big 10 wouldn’t come out your keyboard”.. 

Lastly if we’re doing the dumbass OState QB thing then where is QB U then.. Bama, Clemson, Texas tech, ??? Hell BiG blue got the greatest of all time as a graduate.. So Macarthy should definitely be a target right??

lmao

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
