There’s no way around the obvious fact that C.J. Stroud had a disastrous showing against the Patriots in the divisional round. The Texans’ elimination is a direct result of their quarterback throwing four first-half interceptions. It's objectively one of the worst games an NFL QB has ever had to suffer through and unfortunately for Stroud it came in the playoffs, meaning that it’ll be his legacy until he over comes it. Heck, if he overcomes it.
As such, Stroud was appropriately criticized by everyone after the nightmarish showing. ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky, one of the nicest people in media, went so far as to say that the Texans would have won the game with 31 other quarterbacks.
