It's easy to see the huge chunk plays, 10+ yard runs and 20+ yard wide open passes every game. We get burnt at least twice a game, you lose those to playoff caliber teams when you don't have a run game yourself.

Seems like Lou is depending on turnovers which we are getting, but how dependable is turning the ball over on a game to game basis.

Stroud looks like Burrow back there already in Year 1 (or better?) with less talent around him. How? I think we didn't get much pressure on him. His WRs were wide open all day and he didn't have to thread many throws. No wonder he has so few picks.

The scheme makes it easy on him. The Texans were doing a masterful job of rolling the pocket one way and then rolling out Stroud the opposite way. He was free throwing accross the middle on the run.
