If the pass protection improves, the only thing that can stop this offense from passing for 5,000-5,500 yards is Bobby Slowick.
Their QB turns into an RB in the RZ limiting his production. That along with the coaching change hindered him. He is still a #1 especially with a passer like stroud.
Base salary + 1/5 of the signing bonus (2024 + 4 void years) + roster bonuses so $5.8mil for the year. Just to note even if it's 4 void years, from a cap perspective all those years get accelerated to next year's cap so he's on the capsheet for $16mil to do nothing in 2025.
Just a friendly reminder that this is still football. There is a reasonable-to-solid chance that significant time is missed for injuries, making that stacked-on-paper lineup a little less stacked in actual practice.
Even if Diggs is only on the Texans for one year, so what. You don't think every year there's going to be WRs that want to be on the receiving end of passes from Stroud? As long as the Texans have Stroud and cap flexibility I'm not going to be worried about losing a "rental" at the WR position.
Just a friendly reminder that this team is more stacked than last year, so by the law of averages this lineup should be able to withstand more injuries than in prior seasons. SUCK ON THAT DEBBIE DOWNER HYPE TRAIN GOT NO BRAKES CHOO CHOOOOOO
And this is why we still need a day 2 WR, for cost control. Even if they don’t perform right off the bat in year one.
