C.J. Stroud: I don’t think Bryce Young is playing badly in any way, aspect, or form

Yeah one is looking at his play through the eyes of a fellow professional QB at the highest level and the other is looking at it through the eyes of an upset fan who just wants a win.  It's all about perspective.  

Wins and losses, to me, aren’t a QB stat anyway. You can ball out and lose or some games you can play like trash and win.

Or he's just coming to the defence of his close friend. 

I'm no longer an upset fan - I'm genuinely rooting for us to go 0-17 because I think it'd be hilarious and entirely warranted.

Jimmy G is showing us your exact point.  On the Niners with an elite defense, running game, OL, and weapons he was winning a lot.  You take away some of those things like he is missing on the Raiders and wins don't come so easily.

He went into extra detail which isn't needed.  Rodgers also said Young looks the part, Cam also said something similar.  

You can say you aren't upset about wins but the first response you had on here was our record and how it relates to our QB.

It's the most important position in professional sports. They have as big a hand in wins and losses as a starting pitcher in MLB - only they're on the mound every game.

And wins and losses are being viewed more and more as a pointless stat as time goes on. ERA is significantly more important. Giving up 10 runs a game but your team scoring 11 doesn’t make you a good pitcher. But your win-loss record would indicate you are. 
 

Hence why in recent times people like deGrom have won Cy Young awards over pitcher with a bunch more wins than them.

Yes....IN THE PUBLIC. 

Nah I agree with LG.  A shootout against your friend with you having the game winning drive would be perfect.  Strong competitors like strong competition.  They want to go against the best performing at their best and beat them.

I don't doubt he wants his very good friend to play well and thinks highly of him. Privately though I have to imagine Stroud and his family are taking some level of comfort in the fact the Panthers have been a complete mess and he avoided that. He should be highly motivated entering this game. We should as well. We better not lay another egg. We need Bryce Young looking like a #1 pick.

Thats the point. To think he actually feels sorry or remorse for whats going on here and bryce is delusional. These players all have that edge and want to show why teams shouldn't have passed on them. All that matters is his performance and getting his team. Who cares whats going on with the Bryce and panthers. That matters nothing once the game starts.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
