    I would go with Mills. How many games did he win last season in relief?

    I'm not saying the Texans should give CJ long enough to ruin the season if he's a flaming train wreck. If that happens, they'll have to make an early change.

    My post was purely about fan expectations.

    CJ had his best OL and receiving corp in his rookie year, 2023. Thereafter both rooms were diminished and so did CJ's performance. I think the OL will be much better as well as the WR and TE rooms. I also hope that CJ has overcome his psychotic 25' playoff issues. If so, I think we will win the AFC.

    I think it is all dependent on the running game. All the off-season moves and draft picks points to smash mouth football. If the run game performs as intended, the play action pass game will excel and Stroud will do a much better job of protecting the football. We have to win first down.

    One way or the other, I just want the excuses for his poor performances to end.

    This season he needs to prove he can be a quality QB or he needs to be done here.

    Call it whatever you want. Excuse, reason, cause and effect. All depends on the narrative you hold to.

    This team needs a win and get to the Bowl. End of story. I will predict he is one of the reasons for it.

    Barring injuries, this team is build to go.

    No more concussions please.

    More motion please.

    Right, doesn't matter what you call it, none of it matters. Either we get results, or it'll be time for a change.

    CJ needs to be one of the reasons the team wins because he's the ONLY reason the Texans weren't in the Super Bowl last season.
