QB CJ Stroud (All B1G, 2022 B1G QB of the Year, All-American, NFL OROY, Houston Texans)

[Onebuckfan]

Stroud has his exam end of Nov..these quizzes like Nw, Indiana, MD are meaningless.

I mean he had 7-8 dropped balls that hit the wideouts hands. I don’t put this on stroud. Adjust for drops and he’s in the high 60s completion for a td and 200 yards. In those conditions that is fantastic. Receivers did him no favors and need to work on their wet ball skills.

It might have been wet balls

It might have been balls that are changing direction in flight

maybe, being used to catching footballs with predictable flight paths made it difficult to catch them in a gusting wind

kind of like catching from a pitcher who can throw a good curve for the first time. It takes some gettin used to

but these are 5* athletes passing through on their way to the NFL. adjusting to such things should be something they can do

Nah the weather was genuine ass. You could even tell on TV. NFL teams don't even play well in conditions like yesterday.

Wet balls can be a problem, but I wondered about the passes moving around in flight when that ball moved between plays in the second half. Never seen that before and these receivers just don't drop balls like that.

if we’re going to talk about wet balls and genuine ass we should probably move to a different forum

I'm secure enough in my masculinity to discuss ass and balls

Not in winds like that.

fair enough

The only thing I’m sure of is that 5* athletes routinely do things that I cannot

If we’re being honest with ourselves we probably all have to admit that we’re only guessing at where the line should be between what we’ve seen them do and what they should be expected to do

it is to be expected then that we will sometimes differ

I guess I can agree to give them a pass on some of it, but I will continue to believe that if the ball hits them in the chest or the hands, they should get it

as for the rest… MHJr made the rest of them look bad

it might be the genes

it might be because he works harder

 

[DaddyBigBucks]

How big was Stroud's lead in Passing Efficiency.

So huge that after playing in the worst throwing conditions ive ever seen, he's still in first place

Can you point us to the right forum? Not for me, it’s for a friend.

NOAH recorded 80 mph gusts yesterday...I'd say that would alter the trajectory of a football.

Not according to some armchair QB’s on here.

 

[OregonBuckeye]

After 1 TD pass in the last 2 weeks, I predict he gets 6 this Saturday

 

[ScriptOhio]

10/26, 76 yards, 0 TDs

Just sayin': Hooker may have just won the Heisman today and he hasn't even played yet.

Or not....
