C.J. Stroud talking about the Texans offensive progress throughout camp:
“Everything is starting to come a lot easier, we’re starting to make more plays know what guys are good at in the scheme and try to fit the guys to do those types of things”
He also says he thinks the Texans are the best defense in the NFL and it’s been hard playing against them but a great challenge.

The Texans offense will have a very different type of matchup than maybe we have seen in the past in LA.
- Chargers blitz on just 20.1% of dropbacks (fewest in the NFL)
- Chargers use zone coverage on 81.4% of their coverage dropbacks (4th highest)
Good test for Houston’s offense against a really good defense.
ITS TEXANS GAMEDAY 🤘🏻
The last time the Texans played the Chargers, but it’s just the SpongeBob-cast
Texans QB C.J. Stroud is having his best season in Total EPA (Passing + Rushing EPA) added by a wide margin in 2025.
2025 Total EPA Added: 51.5
2024 Total EPA Added: -44.1
2023 Total EPA Added: 38.1
Stroud’s rushing EPA is at 15.9 which is 13.1 points higher than any season previously.
Between Stroud’s improvements in pocket management & rushing the year 3 bounceback has been huge.
The Texans are the only team Justin Herbert has faced in his career that he has thrown more INTs than Touchdowns against.
Herbert is 1-2 with 4 TDs & 6 INTs vs the Texans in his career.
