Both looked like $hit. Each team had about 225 yards of offense. Terrible.

Well, honestly, both defenses played outstanding games.

It's always funny when folks who have been largely missing for a few months save for a few random posts here and there shows up asking where everyone is at now like they've earned the right to strut. Just no. You don't get cool points for hiding when it's convenient.

I'm happy with how Bryce Young played on the whole. But the way we finished the game is not what we should be doing. We barely squeaked by a team we were supposed to be significantly better than anyways and we had to play for a FG in our own house to do it. We've still got a lot of work to do.

How did we go from 6 weeks of “Bryce is a terrible midget bust and Stroud is incredible” to squeaking by a team we are significantly better than? Unreal how much the goal posts move

There it is.  Like clockwork.

How long did that take before you start calling people crazy?

Maturity par excellence

 

I think we both know all those crying laughing emojis you spam in each post are a mask. I hope you have a better week going forward! 🫡

Who exactly are you referring to?

Never called him a bust.

Also I have not seen the height even mentioned much anymore except almost exclusively from folks who are deeply insecure about it for some reason.

So you don't remember the talk of Bryce Young going to the best destination of all rookie QB's just this summer? You didn't think that yourself?

Speaking of goalposts moving. What happened to that "stacked" team Stroud was playing on?

Maybe things aren't as simple as we think on either side of this issue. Let's see if this staff can actually help Bryce Young develop.

He played better. I agree. First game he did it all year. I’m happy for the win but we scored just 15 points with a new coordinator. I don’t know how to feel about that. 

Lol. He got sacked 6 times against the worst pass rush. Im thankful we scored anything

We need an offensive line that can protect a quarterback.

The chest thumping is pathetic.

Bryce had always been better than stroud and he showed everyone today. 

I agree that Bryce is better and I am glad we selected him #1.  I also believe C.J. Stroud will turn out to be a top rated QB in the NFL as well.

Decent game by both QBs. They're rookies. They'll both get better!

But to those that argued with me 2 weeks ago about these guys having different situations and you had to watch the games to see it... do you think we have a Dell, Nico or even Noah Brown on this team? Do you still think the oline protection is even remotely the same? Agree Houston couldn't get much of a run game going today though. Overall, I still don't see CJ doing anything BY isn't.

Reading this thread was really, really enjoyable. I can almost see the anger coming through some of your posts bc Young played better than Stroud today. 
 

Please continue. I’m loving it.

I know.  It is absolutely delicious.

This is why many need to understand that our team is a work in progress. Under the circumstances, Bryce played pretty good but he needs better protection and seperation from receivers. I think Bryce will continue to improve.

Also, I felt like the Young vs Stroud argument was over played. I think both will be successful in this league but we need to remember, they are both ROOKIES. Stroud has been incredibly lucky to have to a good supporting cast around him.
