I'm not a Texans fan by any means but I do appreciate greatness when I see it regardless of who it is & man lemme tell ya.. as a football fan in general it's genuinely fun to watch Stroud ball out. He's gonna be a problem for years to come.

[@JohnBen-we6sn]

Dang by any means, I respect that as a Texans fan!

[@ferrynpalmer3875]

I'm a Colts fan....who loves Richardson, but wanted Stroud badly. I fully endorse this message and will find it impossible NOT to root for CJ, other then 2 times per year he plays the Colts obviously!!

[@rondo8785]

I agree not a Texans fan either but damn it is enjoyable watching him play

[@gabefreeman2968]

Yeah he can sling that thang!!

[@terrynicewonger5434]

Agree

[@kcthememe5482]

omg the way he quickly adjusts his chair so he can talk to all the guys and make eye contact. really such a great guy, raised well.

[@StiffyLongJohn]

Most people want to be comfortable lol

[@silverwolfe3636]

Looking at the person speaking to you is considered being raised well now? Damn the standards of child rearing haven't just fallen, they've completely disintegrated lol

Man I love seeing CJ anywhere, he’s such a good dude and I hope he has a long career in the NFL

[@AdrianSanchez-sp3nq]

[@charlesbox5410]

I love how they bicker at each other back-and-forth. That’s pretty hilarious.

[@Soggy_Potato21]

Yea you can tell they will have a great relationship for years to come.

[@FredoGranados13]

thats true friendship ur not real friends if u cant

[@targetegrat]

CJ Stroud is the MVP to me. His performance against the Steelers and Browns defense were impressive for a rookie. Also playing with a backup offensive linemen for most of the season was not easy.

[@TEXANTRULA]

Stroud is that dude Pat better watch his mouth at 4:15 Texans fans don't play that 💯

[@spartan_a1176]

Yeahh but that jets game man I'm still mad about that

[@seanypthemc]

you said 'for a rookie'. Kinda undermines your argument and highlights why he got Rookie of the Year, not MVP lol

[@targetegrat]

'for a rookie' because even a decent veteran QB would struggle against the Steelers/Browns defense. @@seanypthemc

[@seanypthemc]

@@targetegrat decent veteran QB doesn't win MVP though. Rookie and decent aren't words that are relevant to an MVP debate....

[@athras8822]

well yeah, he's 0-2 against you.

[@anthonym6078]

Never really heard an interview with CJ Stroud before, you can tell he's a genuinely good dude and he is really well spoken. Texans got themselves a gem, he's got the mindset to be elite and he's got the skill to go with it.

[@rswazey123]

As a person who’s met the kid he’s very humble and down to earth. I wish Mcafee possessed more respect. He won’t have a job the way he acts so matter a fact. 😂😂😂 wtf

[@winstonsmith11]

I feel a little bad for Puka Nacua, but you know that the QB is always gonna win out. CJ had a great year.

[@Spaceage713]

Imma Texan fan n I feel they should've shared it

[@julioalvarez6294]

I UNDERSTAND I GET IT DUDE HAD AN AWESOME YEAR BUT HE ALSO HAD STATFORD AS QB CJ IS ROOKIE QB THROWING TO ROOKIE WRS WITH A ROOKIE HEAD COACH TURNING A LAST PLACE TEAM TO DIVION CHAMPS

[@Blackmegagun]

I think the fact he and Ryans were able to turn that franchise around in 1 year might've contributed more into the award for Stroud

[@natedavis8669]

Fr, Puka is an amazing WR & he’ll probably go down as one of the best to ever do it. Literally any other year Puka would’ve had it in the bag, it was just unfortunate he was up against the literal best rookie qb of all time 😭

[@clayfoster9303]

CJ Stroud is the man. It's been fun to watch him come out of his shell throughout the last year

[@pat_n_black7563]

I didn’t watch many Houston games this year but I’ve become a big fan of this dude the last few months. Seems like a chill ass dude who is also going to be a problem for his division for awhile.

[@bluegrassbred8714]

As a Texans fan all I can say is we got a good one, this kid exceeds even the biggest of expectations any of us as Texans fans could've have had. 💯🤘

[@natedavis8669]

Its good karma for getting Watson’s predator ass out the organization lmao

[@JonDowd]

Watch Strouds tape vs UGA..that game alone shows you the competitor and talent that CJ is. He’s going to be the best qb in the league; was just beginning to touch greatness as he was leaving OSU.

[@hillythelaurel]

Such a humble guy. I wish him all the best

[@reece8864]

As a Buckeyes fan, I'm happy for him! As a Browns fan, I'm a little salty..

[@helmetsnhashmarks]

CJ Stroud great on and off the field. The game needs players like this. Maybe a Walter Payton Man of the Year in the future. Represent the Inland Empire young buck. The future is what you make it.

[@zachdamenti4387]

Arguably the greatest rookie quarterback performances all season long!

[@thebestman2680]

Dude I was kind of a fan of Tom and Bert for the last year or whatever… last few months really haven’t cared for them that much and seeing that live today just ended it for me. Felt so disrespectful and cringey I couldn’t watch it I had to fast forward.
