From the episode

I actually think Stroud is kind of this year's Darnold in a sense... I'm giving him just one more chance just to see what the the better offensive line... I'm a little more uncertain about, you know, how much of a target I want to make him in fantasy.

STACKED’s take

Stroud is a bounce-back candidate with some lingering fantasy uncertainty.

Rich Hribar compares C.J. Stroud to Sam Darnold, noting he is giving Stroud one more chance to utilize his offensive line and weapons, though he remains somewhat uncertain about his fantasy target status.
