The way JJ makes that big ass trash can look like it’s the size of a jar of mayo really puts how big he is into perspective

[@dax_megathor479]

CJ Stroud's comments about the game were nothing but facts. Every QB should want super bowl rings over MVPs. In fact, it would be a huge red flag if a young QB said he would rather have a case full of MVPs than multiple superbowl rings.

[@qaxcgyujm]

Every player cares about individual accolades and not just team achievements but most don't admit it until they retire.

Individual awards are great. I'm not going to lie. But, you play a team sport. And no one is above the team. Even though he's their leader as the quarterback I commend this young man. BECAUSE ,that's what it's all about. TEAM FIRST. EVERYTHING ELSE SECOND. HIM SAY HE'D RATHER HAVE SUPER BOWL TROPHIES, THAN INDIVIDUAL ONES SHOWS YOU WHO A LEADER REALLY IS. HE PROBABLY WILL WIN AN MVP SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD. Good LUCK YOUNG MAN. LEAD YOUR TEAM TOO VICTORY

In favor of who?

[@addyplatebody]

@@Mr.DerekReese AR obviously.

[@mellomike4012]

Whoa there! I’m a Texans fan, and don’t think maturity has anything to do with it. CJ has been playing QB since he picked up the football. AR hasn’t had that advantage and is still growing into being a QB. Don’t confuse maturity with experience. If AR listens to Steichen and learns to protect himself outside the pocket, he has a sky high ceiling he can reach.

[@jjherrera4567]

I just watched the MILLION DOLLAZ WORTH OF GAME interview. Out of all the positive message and deep life topics they discussed, THIS is the only thing you comment on? Really? This is why people get upset with the media. You talk all the time about taking things out of context, then you take an awesome, real interview and cheapen it by focusing on 30 seconds of comment. C'mon man! After everything that has happened with you, you can do better. How about highlighting the hour of positive message and life lessons and not the few words you twist to make a segment? I'm still a subscriber for now, but....

[@upinsmokevck]

It’s a sports show.. literally on ESPN .. they took the sports portion and had a sports discussion.. you way too deep on this .. everything you said is accurate if it wasn’t a sports show.

[@jjherrera4567]

@upinsmokevck I understand that but the WAY they presented it made it seem like CJ was talking smack which couldn't be further from the truth. Even on that comment he stated he was talking about last year's season only. They shouldn't twist things to throw shade on somebody out of context. Pat himself complains about that all the time... the turns around and does it himself? Do better!
