If CJ Stroud goes on to be a top QB in the league, the NFL is going to change soooo much. I can't count the number of times I see a rookie struggling and people respond with "no good QB is ever good their first year". The leash will get a lot shorter for players down the road. It's going to be tougher to justify keeping a struggling rookie by comparing his stats to Peyton Manning's rookie stats.

But how else will people compare stats with no context?

I don't think this will pan out because there's literally just not enough quality QBs available to churn through one every single year if they aren't immediately good. The NFL is already tough to watch with close to 20 teams having below average or outright bad QB play this year. And each draft only has at most 3 or 4 of the kinds of QBs that can start week 1 without everyone calling you crazy.
