The episode discusses CJ Stroud's fit in the Erhardt-Perkins offense and the potential of second-year players like Jayden Higgins.
The Houston Texans may not have a finished product on offense just yet, but there's a strong case that CJ Stroud and the Erhardt-Perkins system are the perfect long-term fit. Joined by Garret Williams (@HoustonStressans), we break down why this offense takes time to master, the flashes Stroud showed during the 2025 season, and why Texans fans shouldn't panic if the full payoff doesn't happen overnight. We also discuss whether Houston's revamped offensive line deserves more confidence after adding veteran talent and whether the Texans should make one more move by signing veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen before the season begins—or trust the current receiving corps to develop. Plus, Jayden Higgins headlines our list of second-year Texans players who need to take the biggest leap in 2026, but he's far from the only player under the spotlight. We identify the young talent that could shape Houston's season.
