Houston Celebrates C.J. Stroud’s Impressive Throw
Houston, TX – In a thrilling start to the 2024 NFL season, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has already caught the attention of one of the most respected coaches in the league. After just one week, NFL’s legendary head coach Bill Belichick declared Stroud’s game-winning pass as the best throw of the year, highlighting the significance of the moment.
Stroud’s standout moment happened during the final two minutes of the Texans’ opening game against the Indianapolis Colts. With the Texans leading 29-27, they faced a crucial 3rd-and-11 situation. Stroud took to the field and delivered a challenging sideline pass that landed right in the hands of wide receiver Nico Collins. Belichick praised the throw for its precision and timing, making it “the best throw of the year” in his eyes.
Speaking on Inside the NFL, Belichick acknowledged that the season is still young and other notable throws may come, but he placed Stroud’s throw at the top without hesitation, emphasizing how memorable and impactful it was. This recognition from a coach of Belichick’s caliber certainly adds to the excitement surrounding Stroud as he begins his second season in the league.
This electrifying finish not only secured the Texans a victory, but it also set a high bar for quarterbacks in 2024. As fans in Houston celebrate this early-season achievement, all eyes will be on Stroud to see if he can maintain this level of performance throughout the year.
