It is what it is. I am glad we have a competitive situation unfolding in our division. It's good to be kept on your toes as a team. Stroud's workload will only continue to get more difficult and challenging as teams get more and more familiar with him and build tape decks on him.

I honestly think we'll beat them in Houston the next time we see them. Just like last year.

I agree about his performance against the Panthers: 0 TDs 4 INTs with a Passer Rating of 35.5...(What's that? Oh my bad, posting the wrong QB's game stat from their rookie year.)    (PS. CJ's Passer rating was 81.9, not good but definitely not abysmal.)

I agree with the general assessment that more tape = more challenging, however Stroud threw to 3 different receivers including 153 yards to Noah Brown(?), so it will be more difficult than doubling his favorite receiver.  IMO the most impressive thing about CJ is his ability to quickly scan the field from his 1st to 4th option seamlessly, and then delivering a catchable ball with timing, accuracy, and pace.  [Yes, I know I am gushing]
