One theme that is common throughout the team of Texans, per constant talks, is their faith in God. Before Stroud, Coach Ryans came forward and spoke about how God played a huge role in this victory. Now, it was QB CJ Stroud who was asked about his faith in the divine power and if God had a huge role to play in tonight’s win against the Browns.
Without hesitation, Stroud brought his God-fearing side out and said, “We have a lot of God-fearing brothers on the team and God-fearing sisters on the staff so um, I think definitely God is at the forefront of our minds and we play for the audience and won. Even when everything is going crazy you can lock in and just have peace you know so, I’m blessed enough to even have a leader like DeMeco”.
He then mentioned how people hold their team to a standard and per Stroud, it is right to be held in such a regard so that “he can hold his crosses” and “be like Christ.” The QB added, “We make mistakes, we’re not perfect you know. But at the same time, we at the same time with God we can do all things that Christ instructed us”

Stroud turned 22 in October and what a start he has had after completing the past year. He came head-to-head with his idol Michael Vick, who broke the same record of winning a playoff game as the youngest QB in 2003. Vick led the Atlanta Falcons to a playoff win against the Green Bay Packers that year.
Stroud sat back and enjoyed the show after the Browns gave away back-to-back pick-sixes as there was not much left for him to do. His 3 touchdowns played a crucial role in the game, allowing the Texans to host utter dominance over the Browns.
