C.J. Stroud Puts the Ball Where He Wants the Ball to Go

Praise for the rookie quarterback and the best examples of the accuracy

“I think the easiest way to phrase it is just, ‘Does the ball go exactly where he wants it to go?’ And, in C.J. [Stroud’s] case, it usually does.”

The offensive coordinator for the Texans Bobby Slowik praised plenty about C.J. Stroud’s game on Thursday. It was the comments about Stroud’s accuracy and ball placement that shined through.

C.J. Stroud was billed as one of the more, if not most, accurate quarterbacks in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Texans have seen that accuracy show up plenty in the preseason.

Slowik gushed about the “pinpoint” throws of C.J. Stroud from the preseason game against the Dolphins. The necessity of Stroud’s incredible accuracy is clear to Slowik.
