C.J. Stroud Mic’d Up vs the Raiders:
“12 down there somewhere”
Going through some of the Texans playoff simulators IF the Texans can win out & get to 12-5 they are guaranteed a top 6 seed in the AFC and the top WC spot if the Bills lose a game in that stretch.
In that case these are the most likely WC round games for Houston:
Texans @ Jaguars
Texans @ Steelers
Chargers vs Texans
Now if they don’t win out this obviously changes but this is so we have a idea of what we could see come WC round.
The Texans have made the following moves to their practice squad:
Signed:
LB Power Echols
DT Leki Fotu
S Kaevon Merriweather
Released:
CB Damon Arnette
DT Marcus Harris
S Brandon Hill

He’s doing exactly what the Texans need from him in year 3.
This was one of the Stroud first half misses that I thought was bizarre.
Stroud had some very real misses early but this one to me is really poor spacing.
#33 takes away essentially 2 guys + maybe even Stover on a 3rd & 3 because Nico sits right in front of the crosser.
