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

For some reason they aren’t playing all of their starting OL. Seems like an odd move when you are trying to develop your rookie QB…

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.

Coach Demaco getting a steep learning curve at HC for the offense side of the ball. How's the Texans defense look?

Davis Mills looks 10X better than Stroud looked with the same group.

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

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

This is what bad franchises do. Thank goodness we got rid of Rhule.

Mills has sneakily played a ton of NFL football though for a young QB that wasn’t drafted high

In case people are unable to watch the game and see the pick we are talking about:

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.

[Mr Mojo Risin]

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!!!

[ForJimmy]

Is Will Anderson playing?

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.
