From the episode
C.J. Stroud is fourth right now... QB nine in overall points right now... let's just chuck it, baby... he's one of these guys that if you drafted Justin Herbert, whatever, you know, you've gotten off that hopefully by now at this point.
STACKED’s take
Stroud is QB9 in points and fourth in efficiency among high-volume passers; scheme shift supports upside.
C.J. Stroud is QB9 in overall points and ranked fourth among quarterbacks with 100+ pass attempts in the "suplex stat" (a measure of passing efficiency/volume), behind Josh Allen, Brock Purdy, and Drake Mays. Matt Harmon attributes this to the Texans' shift toward spread concepts and aggressive passing after the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade, comparing the scheme to Ohio State under Ryan Day. Stroud has some rushing upside but doesn't use it frequently; Harmon groups him with Jordan Love, Matthew Stafford, and Kirk Cousins as pocket passers in similar buckets, noting he's not far off Dak Prescott's current production. Harmon pivoted from Justin Herbert to Stroud in his own league, viewing him as a strong streaming option going forward.
