Looks like he does not have good support.  Not what a rookie needs.

Houston was probably the worst situation for a QB to be drafted in.

Horrible team, poor OL, not much in the way of weapons, defensive HC and a nobody OC.

Just for perspective and this game is already boring. 

Cam comp % in preseason as a rookie 

Game 1 - 42%
Game 2 - 50%
Game 3 - 31%
Game 4-  60% for 25 yards and his first pass TD

and obviously then went on to break almost every passing record for a rookie

The Texans still look like the Texans. Gonna be interesting to see what they do if they're drafting in the top 5 again.

They will pick a defensive player and continue to suck. Poor CJ is on his own trying to develop as a pro qb and be their entire offense.  Kinda like Cam had to do but he's less talented as Cam was.

I saw a couple of shots on twitter, and in one he starred the guy down, in the other he was super later to a hole in the zone.  

The big knock on him was being able to process the information on the field.  Did he throw with any touch, timing or anticipation?  CJ has the tools to be a great QB, and I was all for him before we traded up to 1.  I don't want to see him fail (if for no other reason to be a successful OSU QB just so people stop making that argument).  He also seems like a nice kid (like most rookies) so you root for them.

Houston should not have him start if he's not ready.  You'll ruin him.  Look, let Davis Mills start until things slow down for CJ.  In those two shots, he looked like a deer in the headlights.

How is this not the OL he's going to have in regular season? Did they start 2nd stringers?

That's an odd thing to do to your spanking new qb.  I could see putting 1 second stringer on the line to test him with the starters. But to put the entire 2nd string out there for your supposed starting qb seems a bit risky and counterproductive to said qbs development.

Texans about to find out real soon why you need a Oline for a young QB.

 

Im so thankful we finally built an above average Oline. Bryce definitely has a better supporting cast than Stroud right now.

 I’m so dam thankful we have a above average line.

His Oline not doing him any favors.

The line was giving him no time prior to that pick, hope his nerves settle

 

 

If you rewatch that interception on YouTube a few times he had time on that pass it was just a bad throw he’s line wasn’t holding up throughout the game but that play specifically was all on him not nitpicking but just thinking you can’t put that on the line it’s on him. He didn’t see the defender plain and simple happens to all qbs especially younger qbs hopefully Bryce sees things much clearer then that.

    • Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.
    • Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane  
    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
