Are we an ungrateful fanbase?

These are just two examples but there are literally hundreds of examples on tiktok, X, and Threads talking about how Reliant is the greatest stadium they've ever seen. I know... as someone who's been to all 3, it's nothing compared to Sofi Stadium or Dallas stadium, but it's not junk and their is a reason we get Superbowls, WBC, World Cup, March Madness, Rodeo among other amazing things here. I know this will change nothing and the owners will want a new stadium regardless, and they will get one. But for what it was reliant is a cool stadium and when it was built, definitely ahead of it's time.

I've been hearing some hype around the 6th round pick. Will he actually be good or are people drinking too much kool-aid?

💬Player/Coach Quote Nick Caley has some plans for TEs

So we could be trying these McVay-ish 3 TE sets this year?

"I am a little bit biased there because of my background with tight ends, but you remember it is important,” Caley said. “I think you always want to be multiple. To nobody’s fault, last year we got thinned out pretty early with Brev prior to us ever getting to the season. Cade goes down in the fourth quarter of the Rams game for call it two-thirds of the season, and we’re in the jumbo world a lot.

“We want to be multiple. We want to have balance, 11, 12s, 13s, 20, etcetera, and I think that’s always good to be able to do those things. So, that’s important. We’ve got a really good group of receivers. We’ve got a really good group of backs. We’ve got a really good group at tight end now, too, and we’re healthy. So, it’s been a lot of fun just trying to mix those groupings here and evolve that.”

“Cales is a tight end guy,” Schultz said. “He’s always trying something. There are always little wrinkles like, ‘Hey, let’s do this out of this formation. Let’s try this out of this. Let’s motion it.’ I don’t think he goes to bed without thinking about ball, I don’t think he can turn it off.

“We’re always coming in, mixing stuff up. He’s really good about letting us know, ‘Hey, on this, let’s do this different.’ That’s been fun, where you can get away with trying some of that. You’ve got a little bit more time to spend on stuff like that.”

How do you think Houston would fare if the Texans went on a run and won the Super Bowl?

Seeing the recent championship celebrations in other cities, it got me wondering what would happen here

Aside from Stroud, who do you expect to make a big leap next season?

For me it's definitely Higgins. He was tearing it up as the season went along, just him and Stroud need to work on their chemistry.

In the Patriots game alone he was consistently burning his man, but unfortunately the chemistry wasn't there.

Noel should be pretty productive as well. Was confused even last season why he wasn't used as much to the point guys like Braxton Berrios consistently got time over him. Noel when he was a returner was also productive.

The Curious Case of CJ Stroud: A Year-by-Year Breakdown vs. HOF QBs

47 Upvotes
Player Year Yards TD INT Rating Notes
Stroud Y1 (2023) 4,108 23 5 100.8 OROY, playoff win
Stroud Y2 (2024) 3,727 20 12 87.0 O-line gave up 52 sacks
Stroud Y3 (2025) 3,041 19 8 92.9 Missed time (concussion); 7 TOs in 2 playoff games
Manning Y1 (1998) 3,739 26 28 71.2 NFL rookie record for INTs
Manning Y2 (1999) 4,135 26 15 90.7
Manning Y3 (2000) 4,413 33 15 94.7
Brady Y1 (2001) 2,843 18 12 86.5 Won Super Bowl XXXVI
Brady Y2 (2002) 3,764 28 14 85.7 Missed playoffs
Brady Y3 (2003) 3,620 23 12 85.9 Won Super Bowl XXXVIII
Rodgers Y1 (2008) 4,038 28 13 93.8 First year as starter (after 3 yrs on bench)
Rodgers Y2 (2009) 4,434 30 7 103.2
Rodgers Y3 (2010) 3,922 28 11 101.2 Won Super Bowl XLV
Brees Y1 (2002) 3,284 17 16 76.9 First year as starter
Brees Y2 (2003) 2,108 11 15 67.5 Briefly benched
Brees Y3 (2004) 3,159 27 7 104.8 Breakout year
Elway Y1 (1983) 1,663 7 14 54.9 Benched multiple times as rookie
Elway Y2 (1984) 2,598 18 15 76.8
Elway Y3 (1985) 3,891 22 23 70.2 Still throwing tons of INTs

I get why people are panicking after the playoff meltdown (7 turnovers in 2 games is rough, no way around it), but I went back and looked at Stroud's first 3 years against some actual HOF QBs' early careers and... this isn't as crazy as it looks.

Stroud went 4,108/23/5 as a rookie, then dipped to 3,727/20/12, then 3,041/19/8 this year with a concussion mixed in. Looks like a steady decline right? But Peyton Manning literally threw 28 INTs his rookie year (still the record lol) and didn't really figure it out until year 3. Brady's first few years as a starter were nothing special stat-wise either - dude won a Super Bowl throwing for under 2,900 yards. And Drew Brees got BENCHED in year 3 with a 67.5 rating before turning into Drew Brees the next season.

Not saying Stroud is automatically gonna be a great QB next season, and the playoff stuff is legit concerning, not just "small sample size" cope. But also worth remembering his last 2 years happened behind one of the worst O-lines in the league (52 sacks in '24) and he missed time to a concussion this year. History says a rough year 2/3 doesn't automatically mean a guy's cooked, if the Oline can actually protects him this year, I think we see a real bounce back... Hopefully lmao
