The lesson in watching these playoff games are that the QBs playing within the system, trusting their defense and not taking a lot of dumb risks are winning.
Let's be practical here and not emotional babies. CJ is going to be QB1 next year. We are not getting a top 10 pick. We're not trading or signing a significant free agent. We are better to hope the offense is a bad fit for him than start over with a player like Mac Jones. I think we do now elevate QB in the draft for 2nd or 3rd round pick. Mills has 1 year left and getting a true developmental QB as a fallback for 2027 would be prudent. We have extra picks this year if someone like Ty Simpson falls and the scouts like him it's worth it. We also need an experienced OC with skins on the wall. Caley wasn't the problem in the playoffs, but he wasn't a solution either and that's the job. He needed to get Stroud in plays and situations where he's not playing hero ball trying to do too much. More rolling out of the pocket for a clean look downfield or throw away.
I'm pulling for the Seahawks to win the Super Bowl. I love the make up of their team. They're basically like us with a more competent offense
Worse performance by a QB in the playoffs I have ever seen. The post game interviews (rah rah) were nonsense. He should have been benched at half. He was HORRIBLE. Something is really wrong with him. Post concussion syndrome, something. Texans need to lose the rah rah nonsense and face the facts. They need to start looking for a replacement.
Caleb has problems too… but he at least has a really good play caller and they worked on their line. I would rather have Caleb right now over Stroud, but neither is ready for enshrinement.
What's truly crazy is that he was actually worse than the numbers show, he had 15 passes that should have been intercepted.
