From the episode

It's been rough for Cam Ward. It's been rough... if he doesn't have one of those spikes by the end of this year, maybe you start to get a little bit worried.
Mentioned at 82:33 – 83:23

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Ward needs a spike by year-end to justify continued patience.

The source notes it has been rough for Cam Ward early in his career, but argues he should receive more patience. At 19-20 starts into his career, if he doesn't show a spike by the end of the year, then worry might be warranted. The source frames Ward as a player who needs to demonstrate an early spike to justify long-term belief.
