There is some truth to the OL improvement at spots but good lord get Dare out of the 3rd down role when you have Woody Marks.

C.J. Stroud has targeted the short area of the field (0-9 air yards) at the 3rd highest rate this season (56.9%).
Justin Watson has aligned in the slot on a team-high 37/52 snaps (71.2%) where now Christian Kirk should slide into.
Don’t sleep on the impact Kirk can have on this offense.

The Texans Wednesday Week 3 Report:
C.J. Stroud on talking about what he can improve on:
“My process has really been good lately, I see the field well putting the ball where it’s supposed to be with the coverages”
He mentions the difficulties of throwing to WRs he has never really thrown to & still wanting to improve as more of a coach on the field.
Texans HC Demeco Ryans says the offense is “much better” than last year and the OL has done a “really good job” so far this year.
The Texans are bottom 5 in PBLK Grade & EPA/Play so far.
