Seriously, wtf happened with C.J. Stroud? He looked stressed on every play.
Link
Missing 2/5 starters on the line and an overall pretty bad team will make a rookie look bad. The Texans have one the worst receiving corps in the NFL. He's going to look bad this year but it's not an indictment against his ability.
Similiar to what happened to Bryce Young over the weekend, if he had a decent offesive line, we probably would have been able to see more of his abilities.
Andrew Luck is the perfect example of a great QB with no one to protect him. You need to draft a line to protect your QB.
Surprised his scramble up the middle wasn't in there, you could see legit terror in the kids eyes when he tucked the ball and ran.
I watched until the Ekuale sack and that breakdown just made it impossible to take seriously. The back was still actively engaged with the edge defender until well after the guard is murdered and Ekuale is a free rusher right up the gut. That's an easy sack on 95% of veteran QBs.
Might someone like Brady just float the fuck out of it figuring either his back releases or it's a throwaway? I guess, though plays like that are what cost him a perfect season. And he sure as hell wasn't going to as a rookie, and most QBs will never get to a point where they can salvage that play.
Thus overreaction thread
