I wonder if Aaron Rodgers is going out on that horrible note. He actually did better this year than I expected, though.
The score reflected two late miscues, but the Texans dominated the game and imposed their will on the Steelers throughout the game in every way but Stroud was simply horrible. They had 2 defensive TDs in which they accrue no yards and have to immediately give the ball back to the Steelers and still out gained them 408–175.

Basically the entire team played exceptionally well with the exception of Stroud who was literally horrible. They were running the ball right at them even though their QB was horrible and box was stacked. I don’t like their chances because QB is the most important position and Stroud didn’t look ready and now Collins is hurt, but that’s a team that is physical in a way champions usually are. It’s the template of a championship team in the next few years. If Stroud simply plays mistake free and game manages the game rather than turns it over they can beat anybody.
