C.J. Stroud & his new center Jake Andrews getting their warmups in:
A very important duo for this Houston team and their OL play this year
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.
24 Hours Away.

Texans Injury Updates:
Aireontae Ersery - Questionable (Thumb)
Trent Brown - Out (Ankle/Knee)
Would expect Tytus Howard to move outside to RT & Blake Fisher at LT if Ersery cannot go.
Enjoy your holiday season with C.J. Stroud and Nico Collins!
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
