The Texans went from really bad to the playoffs, why not the Giants next year? I know you need a really good QB to win in the NFL. You can't rush in a rookie, you have to develop a QB and surround him with a great OL and lots of weapons and then I remembered CJ Stroud.
The Houston rookie has been sensational this year. He's completed 63.9 percent of his passes for 4,108 yards, 23 touchdowns and just five interceptions. He also ran for another three scores. And he did all that while missing two regular season games.
Stroud doesn't have much talent around him, either. And while Demeco Ryans is more than impressing, he's still a first-year head coach. The Texans were 3-13-1 last season. They went 4-13 and 4-12 the two years prior and had four head coaches between 2020 and 2022, counting interim head man Romeo Crennel.
Houston should have been a cellar- dweller this year. Instead, it just won a playoff game, in dominating fashion. It beat a veteran Browns team that smoked the Texans in the regular season.
But Stroud lit up the Browns defense time and time again. He was 16 for 21 for 274 yards and three scores.
He was not only elite. He was the most valuable player. Because without him, this Texans team would be fighting with the Patriots, Giants and Jets for a top 5 selection in the draft.
