I’m about sick of how good CJ Stroud is.. some of this shit he’s been doing tonight has been absolutely filthy.

Pat McAfee on CJ Stroud

Stroud has done a lot of remarkable things this year. The quarterback has broken multiple records. Recently, he became the fifth quarterback ever to surpass 4,000 passing yards. In addition, the quarterback also had five touchdowns in a single game.

Stroud’s continuous efforts have helped the team clinch a post-season position after four years. Though the Texans won’t be having an easy time in the postseason, they can still have high hopes from the quarterback in the coming time.

After praise from Pat McAfee, C.J. Stroud is favorite for the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award

Some rookies stood out this season with their stellar performance on the gridiron. Stroud became the favorite for the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award after helping the Texans clinch the post-season berth.

As things stand right now, betters have also been seconding the thought. As per the stats by the Draftsking Sportsbook, Stroud led by a stellar -1200 points against the Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua. After that game, the chances of the former winning the trophy have also increased.

Stroud faced tough competition from Nacua, who had a stellar season this year. His team has also played well throughout the season. The Rams have also moved on to the post-season after missing it last season.

In addition, the OROY Award is not quarterback-oriented. There are ample chances that others apart from QBs can win it. Hence, Nakua’s chances were also seeming brighter. Nonetheless, Stroud seems to be a clear favorite after the game against the Indianapolis Colts.
