Stroud's yards per game, completion % and interceptions are insane. He just met these dudes.
CJ Stroud will be something special.
So MVP is just a QB award huh. Got it
Cj looks so comfortable and confident! Did they all just agree for the first time?
Cj just stay away from the massage parlors and get all your massages at the facility
Carolina Panthers suck at 1st Picks!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
If the teams record matters then it shouldn’t be called the mvp award
I don’t want to be that person. But this season we have 2 non QB. That I feel like should get MVP.
WR Tyreek Hill with Miami
And another WR. Ahh shoot brain fart. I forgot who. But yea they should be favorites
4:06 Young ain’t getting PROTECTION like that!!
in my OPINION, hes 100% the mvp right now, the texans had like 3 wins last year 💀 the fact that hes playing better than every other qb as of late, with the roster he was given, should speak volumes ab what cj is doing in houston
2:31 The last rookie QB to get an MVP vote was not Dan Marino in 1957…….it was Dak Prescott in 2016.
I'm a die hard Houston Texans fan and for some strange reason I have Tyreek Hill as the front runner of The Best QB Award but I love our rookie and he's not too far behind Cheetah. IN MY OPINION.
No he doesn’t.. he has no expectations or nor does he have any film from previous seasons on him. The front runners are Hurts & Mahomes plain & simple.
If I'm CJ I want no parts of the MVP My rookie year ….They are gonna eat him alive for the rest of his career
I’ve been saying it since they made it a debate in college. CJ Stroud was clear and above the top QB coming out in that draft. I said Carolina would be stupid and making a big mistake for not taking Stroud
Tried to tell folks we should’ve drafted him over young!!🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Unfortunately Stroud can’t be the league MVP because he lost to the Carolina Panthers. A undrafted 4th string QB from the bears beat Carolina but the Texans couldn’t. So for me that stain prevents him from being the MVP. He can & is the rookie MVP but that’s it
He’s the new era aaron rodgers
It's somebody new every week CJ Lamar Tyree etc 😂😂😂
if Cj Stroud get the Texans to the wildcard he should be mvp and if you say no then go and rewatch the last few years of texans football
Be careful orlovsky because Stephen A will do you just like he did Max… He's a jealous clown like that
Please…Please for the love of God….Leave Race Out Of It Steven A.
We see no color in H-Town 🙏
But We Do See Our Boy CJ Ball'n On The Football Field Every Sunday!!
T E X A N S 🤘
CJ the type of player that would win MVP and say this MVP belongs to the whole time
Merril Hoge is a legend
MVP? How biased can you get?
Panthers look like the idiots we thought they were!!!!😮
Favorite for MVP? LOL.
I have been saying to my friends that C.J. Stroud looks like the best QB ive seen in a long time. He looks comfortable throwing. He is deadly accurate. He can move if he needs to. He gets it out fast. They take those deep shots more than any team above Miami. He is playing the position so good. He is clutch. Ice in his veins. Reminds me of Tom Brady.
