STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

#1 overall pick; community divided on timing. Pro-Mendoza camp: 4-game losing streak justifies reps; Jets matchup (Week 8) is low-pressure opportunity; needs film for offseason evaluation; Tom Brady may push for early start; younger, more mobile than Cousins. Anti-early-start camp: should sit full year to learn behind Cousins (Brady has publicly stated preference for rookie QB development); needs O-line and run game fixed first; throwing him behind bad line risks development (Titans/Cam Ward cautionary tale); can get reps in final weeks vs. Titans/Cardinals/Chiefs. Consensus: will eventually start, debate is when.
