Dude, Cam would run all game then do laps around the stadium giving high fives and poo on a first down, then run around some more.

One of my favorite moments is when we were blowing out the Skins and he ran back and forth doing the Hulk Hogan “I’m listening” thing. 
Dude never seems to lose energy.

We still should’ve drafted him over Bryce. He could’ve sat behind Andy for 2 years. 

He wouldn't have. He would have started here, done as badly or worse, we would have started him even longer as he failed, got injured and worse.

He isn't a good QB but he would have been demonstrably worse here as this situation(especially last year) is LIGHT YEARS worse than in Indy.

He might be the only QB that could actually have fared worse here than Bryce. This would be a complete nightmare scenario for someone like AR.

...I'm glad we didn't get a chance to ruin him...

Stroud is not a fragile flower like Bryce. He's made of far tougher stuff because he thrived against plenty of adversity growing up. Stroud would have been fine here. Yes, it would take a bit longer, but he would get there.

People seem to forget that Reich got 27 tds to 7 ints out of a broken, discarded Carson Wentz.

Stroud would have been fine with Reich, he had no chance once he got handed Bryce.

You know....I would like to think that is true but we just don't know what this situation would have done to him. Maybe Stroud is struggling and Bryce is looking like early Mac Jones(decent comp, IMO).

Okay for one thing the defense wouldn't play us with Stroud like they play Bryce. The biggest thing gumming it all up was no stretching the field, almost none. Whatever they did to stretch it scared no one. 

That is still going on and it's a huge problem. Or a huge symptom of Bruyce's limitations, however it works.

It would have been much different with Stroud, the team might have thought they had a chance, too. Which affects things.

Some posts aren't embedding now for some reason 🤔

Basically, the team is signalling that this isn't a "temporary" benching. Flacco is the starter "going forward".

Starting to wonder if they've soured on him.

When the whole team is out there workin hard putting in effort and gettin bloody....and he just walks off....no one respects him on the team after that stunt...I'd bench him indefinitely....thats some Kerry Collins level stuff there.

No way Bryce could ever look like an early Mac simply because he doesn't have the arm strength for it.
