    Quoted for truth

    We can only hope Stroud becomes as good as Burrow.

    Regardless of how this season ends CJ needs to get his ass in the weight room and work on his pliability. He still has a teenager body and zero mobility. When the pocket breaks down he's essentially cooked because efenders aren't at all threatened by his ability to escape the pocket and pick up yards with his feet, he doesn't have to be Lamar but he's had multiple situations where he could've picked up five yards with his feet but threw the ball away because receivers couldn't get open downfield

    Agree, but to be fair it helps to have an offensive line that can knock defenders out of the way and give him a better escape route downfield. Could also be partly that he's afraid to be tackled, so his first instinct is to run towards the sideline and throw it away last second if he can't find a receiver or slide after 5 yards.

    Caleb got sacked 65 times and avoided 39 others? Yikes!

    Do you believe it's all mental for Lamar? Or do you feel it's scheming and the usual extra time to practice before hand...or a little bit of both?

    Before this year the system was easy to gameplan against.
    Lamar wasn’t a good processor.
    He seems to have done better in that aspect this year, but he has a lot of help. Scheme and player wise.
    He needs to show up this year, because he’s been absolute dogshit in the playoffs

    He's in good company where he should be. Took everyone but Mahomes 3 seasons or more to reach th AFC championship. Some elite qbs that can't win 1 playoff game.

    Seven made plays and managed the game simultaneously. His PFF score should be the 2nd highest of his career with the 44 rushing yards
