Nothing I have read indicates Mills has outplayed Stroud and he is not likely to bust. I can’t believe you are still spewing out this nonsense.
Again, I didn’t mean Mills outplayed Stroud. That was a mistake writing. Mills has been more consistent and outplayed him up until the back to back bad days for Stroud. Then Stroud was given all the reps with the 1s. Stroud hasn’t outplayed Mills. Stoerner, Harris and a few Twitter handles that have watched every practice have said as much. If neither has “taken” a commanding lead then Stroud should start. But he hasn’t “earned” anything. His draft position has Yes, he is more likely to bust than be a franchise QB. Odds say as much. That’s not specific to him.
So is every other draft prospect, by the odds. Hell, the odds of having a successful NFL career at any position are stacked against. That's like boldly predicting that "player x" will never win a championship. It's pretty obvious you dislike the kid and are projecting him to fail. I can't fathom feeling that strongly about a player on a team I root for and support before the games are even played.
Correct, I don’t like him. I didn’t want him here predraft. I like nothing about him and his skillset outside of his accuracy. Ohio St, Avery and Mulugheta client, terrible under pressure, low physical upside. With that being said, he’s on my team. I’m not going to actively root for him to fail. I wouldn’t do that to any young player.
I mean tbf... I actually disliked Deshaun so much at one point when he was on our roster that I wish he got banned from the league at the expense of a team dumb enough to trade for him and give us capital. Not logical by any means.... but I have two daughters.
Seems perfectly logical to me. I'd consider that a special exception though. Don't get me wrong, I've had massive issues with players and coaches on my favorite teams before. But it's almost always been about performance history (with the aforementioned exception for that POS Deshaun). I don't have enough tape on Stroud to be disappointed already.
facts -Stroud was the #2 pick -multiple teams passed on Levis and he slid in the draft despite projections he was gonna go in the 1st round more facts -Stroud beat out Mills to be QB1 -Levis couldn't beat out Willis and is now a 3rd stringer. Everything else is just opinions or cherrypicked tweets. Facts are facts. Stroud > Levis
Only part of this that is facts is the first part. Stroud didn’t beat anyone. He was given the starting position. Levis has better stats-per their beat reporter-than Willis. He wasn’t given a spot.
I gotta be honest, I've spent the better part of an hour looking and I can't find a single reference online to Mills outplaying Stroud in camp. It just doesn't exist. I recall some writer scoring the early days in camp like a boxing match and my recollection was that, at best, they were even. Until Stroud shot past him in the past few days.
They were even before Stroud struggled and then for some reason Stroud came back to run with the 1s. Harris has said as much, Lopez has said as much, Stoerner said yesterday that Mills has played well and no one has really taken it by storm. You can find all kinds of puff pieces about Stroud, but that doesn’t mean he outplayed anyone. Multiple tweets about Mills making great throws as well, but you see more about “over throw” “pick” when Stroud has had far worse days.
weird according to you. reports directly from the Titans have Willis outplaying Stroud and the incumbent being by far the best alternative. your crush had one amazing day in training camp with 5 touchdown passes. But even his coach tempered putting too much into that. I can site sources and completion percentages. can you?
https://www.tennesseetitans.com/news/observations-from-titans-training-camp-on-tuesday-x3373 Levis has a better completion percentage and hasn’t thrown a pick since pads have been on. Everywhere on Twitter says Levis has outplayed Willis. That’s from Titans website. Titans Twitter and amateur sports guys have been raving about Levis. Pretty easy math says you’re wrong
No one is dying on any hill. Time will tell who is the better prospect. As of right now, Stroud doesn’t have the physical upside of Levis or AR or the new age QB skills of Young
Also, I will say I am extremely excited to see what Stroud does. His ball placement and accuracy looks like it can be all time levels. As long as he gets ball out quick and isn’t as bad under pressure as he was in college, he has a great chance to be in the Matt Ryan to poor man’s Burrow level
