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.
If the Chiefs could somehow beat the Broncos tonight that would made the Texans as close to a lock for playoffs as possible without officially clinching.
At that point, the Texans would likely get in based off SOV even if they went 0-2 and Indy went 2-0.
Highly unlikely but something to remember for tonight
