BY or CJ

[AceMan]

I put them both on the same level.  CJ is currently at 'Bryce's benching' stage though so BY is technically above him right now.

My goodness 2023 was a horrible year to draft a QB though!!

Like sure CJ threw more interceptions than bryce against the same defense but they also managed to score more points and get past the fifty yard line more than once.

18/30 150 yards 1 TD isn’t the flex bryce defenders think it is. 

Thats why his performance was especially terrible because if he doesn’t melt down and throw 4 picks they 100% win that game

Stroud for sure. Try playing in a hostile crowd while your used to playing in a dome and above 50 temp. Stroud would kill it with this lineup we have.

Yeah, I don't think most want Stroud to fail. Bryce and Stroud are good friends. It's the Texans fans that were relentless their rookie seasons that makes this feel a little better.

I do. I want Stroud to fail.

that game was snowing cold windy and cj handled those conditions terribly..  but he still was way way way above byoung in every category pretty much in 2025 y/g y/p qbr and passer rating not even close

Some of the colossal Stroud copium on here from posters who like to use “cope” every third word sure is something.

There’s a reason Bryce was the consensus number 1 QB in that draft. All the worries people had about Stroud coming out OSU are now rearing there head.

The risk you take when trading up, which I’ve never wanted to do.

But Tepper was going to land on Levis without a trade up, so I’m more than skeptical that any of the 2024 blue-chippers would’ve been chosen a year later.

It's crazy how much CJ has regressed since his rookie year. He was making some terrible decisions in the game yesterday that really screwed over Houston. 

Can't believe I'm saying it, but I'd rather have current Bryce over current CJ

Hindsight being 20/20, we just went all in on the wrong QB class. We would've been far better off investing all those assets we spent elsewhere.

But as we've seen, unless it's a Peyton Manning, there really is no sure number 1. You're better off taking your QB where you sit or trading up a spot. Moving up to 8 spots to number 1 is just too costly in terms of picks and the ability to build around that QB. 

This is also why you should always be trying to develop in the backup role instead of settling for a Dalton type player. There are no guarantees and the more shots you take, the more chances you have of finding your guy or a bridge guy until you find THE guy. 

Or, you get some dumb ass team to trade a small fortune for your number 1 overall pick and take your QB with the 1st overall that they traded to you as part of the package because they were so impatient.
