You will BE GREAT CHAMP..Don't be so hard on yourself. Real Texans fans still behind you. I know what you will be

[@RJSalso]

Cowboys fan here, I love the way you are learning in this game CJ you’re gonna be just fine. Love to see it. You got this man

[@RonnieKison-zn4wu]

CJ showed a lot of potential

[@BigStaphh]

Yeah he’s a rook but he’s a good one

[@k-specs]

I liked what saw from everyone (except the O-line 💀) he had a solid outing‼️

[@rsbirthcoaching1973]

You did so good baby brother I am so proud of you and seeing the process of you grow through the hardship of learning! Love you!!💛

[@phillybound3351]

That’s not your brother

[@clezelltaylorIII]

CJ CJ CJ!!!! Great Game bro! You’ll be great for sure!

[@toddstevens6305]

What an incredible leader.

[@johncms3]

Head up, CJ! You got this!

[@arianprofit]

Any past QB would’ve collapsed under that line and thrown multiple picks. CJ is gonna be great 👌

[@aaronbutler9373]

As a die hard Ravens fan. You did much better than I thought against Ravens Defense. You actually did better than any rookie against Ravens Defense. Check Joe Burrow. It was awful. Many others as well. Keep moving and learning.

[@artemussingleton3253]

YOU DID DAM GOOD 👍🏿

[@aarlam]

I'm a Michigan fan, but I always check on Buckeye Quarterbacks when they get to the League. I know what this guy can do! I think he just needs to settle in. Once he and his offense get in sync, he will be up there!

[@blackmatterlives9865]

Cool bro. That respect for the game and players.

[@prod_age]

I’m excited for him, he got tunnel vision

[@michaellohre1470]

Praying for you brother and just keep your faith in Christ we love you!

[@cristianmunoz2480]

Need to keep his head up. Hopefully the o line can get healthy by mid season. Next year he will be a beast for sure but right now he's still learning. He had a good game.

[@Blue-vh8dn]

We feel you cj, everyone can see how awful that oline was

[@kaleblucian4624]

Facts

[@lorenzo19gonzales91]

Referees kept throwing flags everytime to cut off momentum. Its not you or the recievers.

[@kingmel82]

Like that mystery holding call on Tunsil.. But the off coord couldve done a better job at calling plays to make them pay for blitzing

[@lumineer_3]

I’m ngl the refs were helping the ravens a lot tho

[@Joelee713.]

It's ok CJ in time

[@aaiirssjoy]

Much love CJ. Spread them wangs

[@tvcoproductions3076]

Panthers fan here🙋🏽‍♀️ im rooting for all of yall this year (my qb Bryce, you, and Ant) i know all of yall will do wonders your first year and i wish for the highest success throughout your careers. The potential is there for all 3 of yall and im ready to watch yall blossom. Nothing but respect. Yall broke records coming into the nfl. Ready to see all 3 break some more in the near future🫶🏽 P.s. cant wait to see yall when yall come to charlotte. Ik yall will be happy to see each other again in a few weeks💙

[@thelyonking5812]

CJ had a solid performance for his first ever NFL game. I think he showed a ton of promise!

[@larrybrady8683]

It's going to come in time we know you have it we know it's a matter of time thanks for the effort

[@DankDunny]

Baltimore defense came out so strong and CJ kept his composure when pressured early, it’s only up from here. I’m so impressed by his accuracy, lots to look foreword to as a Texan fan!!!! We got our guy!!

[@wolffury4037]

My boy look like he just played a whole season

[@Texansfan59]

He got pressured basically every play

[@eddieturner6603]

He got humbled

[@chuckyhoff]

CJ will be just fine. Texans HAVE TO fix this OL to give him a shot to live up to his obvious potential.

[@DankDunny]

Yes!!! Building the O line takes time but we’re heading in the right direction!

[@lacarpetrondukemarriott]

GIVE HIM AN OLINE!!!!!!!

[@Tim832-ig6pt]

For sure

[@Tim832-ig6pt]

The o line didnt give him much time,but i can see us competing

[@donzellallen5454]

And you still accounted for almost 300 yards. We haven't had a QB for a few years. You got this bro

[@iillxsion]

Get Stroud an offensive line Caesario🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@donzellallen5454]

First NFL game my man. You played a Harbaugh defense. You're only gonna get better. The city got your back. 🤘🏾

[@jozielalaniz4757]

Man don’t be too hard on yourself your great we just need to work harder.. GOOO CJ STROUD FRANCHISE QB

[@jordanortiz050]

I like how Cj is improving. He’s goin thru his progressions, gettin the ball out quick to the open man, gettin better at decision making. Didn’t throw a touchdown but didn’t throw an INT either, takin care of the football with quick reads👌🏾still has a lot to improve like pocket presence but his direction is pointing up 💯📈

[@mikeg981]

I will say it again and again, Keenum should start and play out his 2 year contract and let CJ sit and learn. Just because he was never drafted, I think people dismiss his abilities. I think he's a better quarterback then CJ and Mills. In Keenum's first game as a NFL starter he played against undefeated Chiefs team in Kansas at 6-0 against the best defense at the time. Keenum went 15/25 pass, 271 yds, 1 TD, with a passing rating of 110.6. Arian Foster went out with hamstring problems as well which made it harder. But he had them competitive the whole game and only lost by one point, 17-16. The next game he played on a Sunday night against the Colts and have an even better game with 20/34 pass, 350 yds, 3 TDs, with a passer rating of 123.4 and lost only by 3 points, 27-24. They had a chance to tie it and maybe a chance to win but the kicker missed. Now if CJ plays as close as the next game as Keenum did his first two and keeps the Texans in the game and competitve like Keenum did, then I say let CJ continue. But his first game pales in comparison to Keenum's first game as a rookie, so if he doesn't next Sunday, I say sit him and put in Keenum.

[@ericw23]

Keep growing 👏🏾👏🏾 go Texans 0:02

[@AntonioTorres-lq8vy]

Texan till I die I believe in you CJ and the team let's keep fighting and taking it a game at a time

[@Gratefulcollector007]

Go Texans all love C.j

[@JosephReynolds-c1c]

Hopefully we can get McCarthy next year...GO BLUE

[@TrulyUnfortunate]

No worries CJ!! You did fine for a rookie your accuracy was good and you scrambled far better than those who said you couldnt. I'm good with your first game performance.

[@solomen1234]

As a Raven's supporter I feel C.J. Stroud will get better it is hard going against the defense of the Raven''s. You will get better young man do not be so hard on yourself.

[@BigStaphh]

Bro please throw to the TEs there good Dalton Keagan and Brevin that will open up the offense! CJ you’re a good Q we need you

[@BigStaphh]

@CJStroud

[@user-wr5od7my4l]

Shout out to all of Texans nation for taking our boy from OSU in. He will do great with your organization.

[@IreneKid]

He played a good game though they gone win next week game I bet. But we 1-0 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 ravensnation

[@ruthschroeder6915]

Cj did his best with options he had but needs to get rid of the ball a lil quicker

[@petegonzalez6136]

CJ no worries Texans fan have your back you did good out there keep your head up you’ll be fine. Things will come together.

[@zooming8740]

That’s my qb

[@xXtoyhippieXx]

im not sad they lost im hyped as hell for whats to come..it can only go up from here adjust the minor mistakes at baltimore which there sb/playoff contender team..

[@eddieturner6603]

We all knew this would happen without signing some guys on the o line !

[@codryatho10]

CJ played well, minus a few unnecessary sacks, I was pretty impressed. Defense played very well especially after last year but man our O-line is AWFUL.

[@tonymedina922]

Every rookie QB in NFL lost today. CJ had to deal with 3 O-Line starters on IL. The defense shined!!! Let’s go Texans!!!

[@szn1580]

Get this man an Oline

[@isaacromanjr8385]

Teach fields how to do a press conference lmao smh

[@cbozz7063]

alot of teams did bad today,

[@runNgun1516]

Anthony and colts going to be just as bad next week. Demeanor shows all and um.. pouting isn't it. Good luck bub. Let's get it I think 1-1 sounds good for Indy.

[@MissVargasTooYou]

O line & all those penalties

[@danorthsidemang3834]

THUMBNAIL = MUGSHOT

[@mikeg981]

Dude wasn't great, he was okay. I wasn't impressed. Everyone talks about his accuracy but he threw some terrible passes running out of the pocket. Please stop drinking the kool-aid; it would have been worse had the Ravens not given them second chances with those personal foul penalities. I thought the defense did some good, but not enough to keep them close in games. I'm a realist and I'm not afraid of saying how they truly played. If they don't get the O-line fixed, it will not be a good outcome for the kid.

[@mindofaking5923]

You sound like your over 35 and miserable. It was the dudes first game on a stage called the NFL and he threw 44 passes without a INT most logical people will take that take the hate elsewhere dude!

[@AbigailRTeh]

Everybody's entitled to his opinion

[@user-wr5od7my4l]

Very over critical if you ask me.

[@mikeg981]

@@AbigailRTeh - Did he not throw some terrible passes out of the pocket or not? Did the Ravens give the Texans second chances by their personal foul penalities? Did he HONESTLY ball out? Did the defense have a few good plays, but couldn't stop the Ravens? These are not opinions; but facts. Lastly, if they don't get the O-line fixed, you think that's going to be good for the kid?

[@mikeg981]

@@user-wr5od7my4l - I'm not saying anything untrue. It's not being overly critical, but brutally honest. Honesty can sting, I understand.

[@ronin86_Oi]

O line did their job in the second quarter, it was hard but everyone played strong and had good plays, plenty of room to only get better,wish nothing but good vibes and health to all the NFL but especially this QB , glad he is a Texan and will continue to support this organization. Go Texans 🤘🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🔥
