Stroud is averaging 291.8 yards a game which puts him just in front of Cousins (291.4) and Tua (289.9).

This pace would put him at 4961 yards for the season which would shatter Luck’s record of 4374 (273 yards a game)–in fact at Stroud’s pace he’d break it after 15 games.

Plus Stroud has a rating of 101, while Luck finished at 76.5.

    Yep, QB yardage leaders CJ Stroud and Sam Howell. Just like I predicted coming into this year…

    As a Panthers fan, I’m so upset we got Bryce over him, but I wonder if CJ was here, would we have ruined him too? Our organization is such a dumpster fire right now

      lol: imagine if Bryce was in Houston on track for a 5000 yard season and we were talking about how S2 flunker CJ Stroud was an obvious bust in Carolina and “how could we be so stupid!”

        Not a chance. Put Davis Mills back in with this roster and they’re bottom feeders just like the last 3 years., and the Browns would be following every game as they race to the no1 pick.

      Technically your org took Corral over Howell and Bryce over Stroud. But I do think a new Regimen wouldn’t have given Howell a chance the same way the didn’t get Corral one

      I can’t say CJ would be having as good of a season as he is now, but I do think your offense plays better and he’d make your WRs better. A lot of CJ’s production is a combination of CJ being HIM and Slowik knowing what to do with HIM.

    Stroud and Howell…you know, like everyone expected.

    Looks like both teams have their QBs. Now it’s just everything else.

    I legit wanted to Lions to take him at 6 if he fell even knowing we already had a top QB in Goff. He looks absolutely amazing.

    I’m glad you added the part about Stroud potentially breaking the record in 15 games, since it accounts for the extra game

    Meanwhile he’s not even remotely talked about in the MVP talk. Instead it’s all about the underachievers with the big contracts and names

    As soon as that catch was dropped by us in the endzone I knew it was over, CJ is just too good to give a full minute on the drive 😭

    As a Jaguars fan, congratulations on getting a QB who will singlehandedly assure that the Jaguars continue to be a poverty franchise.

    Our Superbowl window was last season, looking back in hindsight, and we blew it against the Chiefs in the divisional round. Now CJ is going to be the one leading the Texans in their fight for AFC supremacy while Jacksonville (particularly their offense) continues languishing under the direction of Press Taylor.

    I’m happy (and upset- it’s bittersweet) that you have your guy, and a coaching staff that isn’t sabotaging his talent.

    Even though he smacked my bengals around, I still started him in fantasy this week and it paid off.

    If our cities didn’t have a natural rivalry, I would root for Houston in the AFC. Stroud is the real deal and a QB worth building around.
