More Observations
C.J. Stroud is undaunted by criticism he’s received after throwing more interceptions through 11 games this season than he did in 15 starts last year .
“Shooters have to shoot,” he said. “You live by the sword; you die by the sword. So, I am just going to continue to play — throw anticipation, throw no-looks. I am going to continue to be me. I am going to have fun. If it means I have to throw more picks to get us to win, it is what it is.”
Stroud has seven interceptions this season after throwing five last year. Now he’ll get another test as the AFC South-leading Texans (7-4) return to division play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans (2-8), who rank first in the NFL by allowing just 164.6 yards passing a game.
Joe Mixon
Texans running back Joe Mixon continues to shine in his first season in Houston after a trade from Cincinnati. He had 153 yards of offense and a season-high three touchdowns in Monday night's win and has had at least 100 yards rushing in six of his eight games this season.
Mixon is averaging 95.5 yards rushing a game, which ranks third in the NFL behind Philadelphia’s Saquon Barkley and Baltimore’s Derrick Henry.
