Texans just doing Texans things. Like seriously, why TF would you not only risk development, but injury throwing him out there with backups? That sounds like some Rhule type sh*t honestly. 

Then pull him after a bad decision… It’s like they are doing everything to slow down his progression.

That was a big red flag IMO. They either didn't trust Stroud not to spiral or they sent the message to their rookie that he's on a tight leash. If you trust the kid and you're committed to building around him you gotta put him back out there. Dial up some layups for him. This is just a bad look. Not sure on who or if it's on everyone. Don't wanna overreact to preseason stuff but the way that transpired is concerning.

I would hope so. Wasn’t he the full time starter last year vs a rookie’s first preseason series?

I don't want my back up QB that couldn't make it as a starter looking 10X better than my #2 pick.

If Young goes out there and gets outperformed by Dalton, I would be bummed. And Dalton shitts on Mills.

Definitely a rough start for Stroud. Imagine this place if Bryce has similar struggles tomorrow, yikes! I remember Cam looking sort of out of place his 1st preseason too. The young guys just need time. Remember to temper expectations because again, its preseason!!!

Cam actually had pretty rough entire preseason.  Im not sure he even threw a TD pass and played in all 4.  No one saw the opening game coming

All along anyone could tell you the Texans were a bad situation for Stroud to walk into. He has had a rough introduction to the NFL but it's weird some folks are so eager to hate on him. Most of them here have one obvious thing in common. Anyways hopefully Bryce Young has a decent first outing Saturday. I expect some ups and downs and that's okay just show me some flashes too.

Also looks like a rookie in his first preseason game.

Not gonna read too much into it but yeah, he didn't look too good.

This game is a "let's see who can screw up the most" game. Just some ugly football. I hope like hell we at least play better than these 2 teams.

Unreal people were praising the Texans for that. One of the dumbest trades I can remember… even if Will Anderson becomes a pro bowler you have to protect your rookie QB first 

Have to. It’s prob a top 3-5 pick next year and that’s your chance at MHJR. Could’ve had JSN and MHJR and opted for defense instead. I hate it for Stroud.

    • I think in all honestly, the final 2 games are carrying most of the weight in a lot of Bryce talk IMO.    During the window where he "blew it out of the water" window......were a lot of games where he was not above average.  AZ is largely one of those stat sheet games.   Where the stat sheet reflects QB play that didn't exist in the game.  That game was all Chuba.  Meh vs Dallas.  Meh vs Philly.  Meh vs Giants.  Probably average vs Tampa, Den, Saints.  Bryce made HUGE strides vs what he was.  We should be happy.   But when you start comparing him to the rest of the league.....people I think are going too far.  His best aspect in reality.....is his scrambling.  And that's probably not a great thing give his size. 
    • Mays and Zavala looked lost in the Reich offense.  Granted Zalava was probably playing too soon due to injuries but he looked terrible.  This new staff seems to be doing well with our OL.  I also wonder if having two vets in Hunt and Lewis just made life that much easier on whoever was/is playing center.  
    • What the Panthers should target in order (via free agency or via trade): 1. Julian Blackmon  2. Mike Hilton 3. Jaire Alexander 4. Jalen Ramsey
