QB CJ Stroud (All B1G, 2022 B1G QB of the Year, All-American, NFL OROY, Houston Texans)






Stroud's 285 yards was enough to put him into the top 5 in franchise history in career passing yards. He now has 6,056 yards, just 177 yards behind Davis Mills for 4th overall.

Stroud’s 285 yards was enough to put him into the top 5 in franchise history in career passing yards. He now has 6,056 yards, just 177 yards behind Davis Mills for 4th overall.

To put it into perspective, Matt Schaub is the franchise’s all-time leading passer with 23,221, so Stroud clearly has a long way to go before getting to that point. Deshaun Watson threw for 14,539 yards while with the Texans, while David Carr put up 13,391 yards in 5 seasons.

Texans' C.J. Stroud becomes just third NFL playoff QB in 33 years to pull off this impressive passing feat

Stroud got the Texans on the board against the Chargers with this incredible drive​

The Houston Texans offense couldn't do much of anything during the first quarter and a half of play on Saturday against the Los Angeles Chargers, but C.J. Stroud ignited them late in the second quarter with a wild drive that saw him pull off a feat that has only been accomplished by two other quarterbacks over the past 33 years.

With 6:15 to go until halftime, the Texans took over on their own 1-yard line and they ended up marching 99 yards for a touchdown. On the drive, Stroud ended up throwing for 101 yards. With an NFL field being only 100 yards long, it's not often that you see a quarterback throw for more than 100 yards on a single drive, but Stroud managed to do it in the Texans' 32-12 comeback win.

With his performance, he became just the third quarterback since 1991 to throw for at least 101 yards on a single drive in a playoff game, joining Aaron Rodgers (2015 divisional round) and Lamar Jackson (2019 divisional round).

Out of those three, Stroud's drive might have been the most impressive and that's mostly because it looked like it was going to end before the Texans even hit midfield. On a third-and-16 from his own 17-yard line, Stroud fumbled the snap and it looked like he had no chance to make a play, but he ended up grabbing the ball and completing a miraculous 34-yard pass to Xavier Hutchinson.
