    This is the type of stuff that tells you CJ is an elite processor of the defense. Not some S2 crap.

    CJ is box office. I don’t recall a Texan ever getting this type of media attention. Not even JJ.

    I can't help it. I was delusional about adding Greinke and also delusional about JV returning. Then I was delusional about getting two marquis players in the 2023 NFL draft, though they were more often WAJ and Carter or AR15 at 12 rather than moving up to 3.

    Luhnow and Crane got me expecting the unexpected and now that's bleeding over to the Texans.

    I swear, anybody who spent more than 5 minutes talking to him about reading coverages or breaking down film with him and then put ANY stock in his S2 score when making a final evaluation needs to lose their job.

    Are there any videos of Bryce, Richardson or Mayo breaking down film?

    My dream scenario is the Texans trading for chase. My personal favorite receiver since Owens

    Podcast with Parsons posted above:

    •(winning OROY) I’m excited but I wanted more. I feel like getting my name in the MVP race early after we played the Bengals, it carried on for awhile. I felt like should’ve been up for Offensive Player of the Year too, at least a finalist but I’m grateful. I want what’s bigger. This is just the beginning for me.

    Parsons: It gets harder.

    CJ: It’s not a surprise anymore.



    •CJ: “You’re from Pennsylvania, from the middle of nowhere.”

    •Says he runs a 4.7.
    “I knew I was low key, decently fast when I was running with Devin White. I made him miss.”

    Parson: (Laremy Tunsil) LT is the best left tackle I’ve went against. (What makes him elite?) He’s strong so it’s not like you can run through him and he’s also athletic. I don’t think LT gets the credit he deserves.

    Stroud: Because the Texans haven’t won and was on the Dolphins when they weren’t winning. I like Trent too. Trent is better in the run game. LT likes passing.

    Parsons: LT is the best LT in the league.

    (Parsons: Lane Johnson is the best RT. Stroud: I like Tytus. Parsons: As you should.)

    •Stroud: (Playoff game) That was the first time I’ve ever seen it like packed, packed, every seat filled.

    •Stroud: There’s a lot of stats and a lot of people who have never played the game and make these stats I’ve never heard of. Like there’s some QB stats like QBR. Who is the one rating this stuff? You don’t know the reads. You don’t know my assignment. It could look like a bad ball but what if he ran the wrong route? Or you rated the receiver wrong and I messed up?

    •CJ says his favorite PG is Brandon Jennings.

    •Parsons all-time starting five: Curry-Kobe-LeBron-Durant-[KG or Tim] (later revised to replace Curry with Jordan)
    •Stroud’s all-time starting five: Curry-Kobe-Durant-Dirk-Shaq

    •Stroud: I’ve never seen Michael Jordan.

    •Stroud: I don’t care what people have to say. I’m a bucket. Come guard me.

    •Stroud is picking the Chiefs. “Can’t go against Mahomes. Too much experience. ”


    Doing his best Kawhi ;)

    Did you see how sad CJ was when Tank got hurt? Looked like he was about to cry

    It was in some interview that he said Tank was a brother for life and he would do anything for that guy.

    Cincy probably would ask for something similar to the Watson deal.
