HE'S NOT WRONG
ESPN's Stephen A. Smith has his eyes set on Week 11 of the Cowboys schedule because CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans travel to Dallas to battle Dak Prescott and the Cowboys on Monday Night Football.
He's excited to see if the Texans and Stroud can prove they have the best team and the top quarterback in the state of Texas. And we all know he loves nothing more than to rub it in when the Cowboys lose!
Check out the video above as Stephen A. breaks it all down!
Eric Murray returned one of Justin Herbert's career-high four interceptions for a touchdown, C.J. Stroud threw a TD pass and the Houston Texans rolled past the Los Angeles Chargers 32-12 in a wild-card playoff game Saturday.
Be sure to watch the video below as the crew from Texans on Tap reacts live to the big win!
It’s the second straight year Stroud and the Texans (11-7) won in the first round after they beat Cleveland last season.
Herbert threw just three interceptions in the regular season and had never thrown more than two in a game before facing a Texans secondary led by AP All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley, who had two INTs. Kamari Lassiter had the other pick.
The Chargers (11-7), who returned to the playoffs under first-year coach Jim Harbaugh, lost in the wild-card round for a second straight time after also losing in the 2022 season to remain without a postseason win since 2018.
Stroud threw for 282 yards with the touchdown pass to Nico Collins and an interception. Collins finished with seven catches for 122 yards. Joe Mixon ran for 106 yards and a score.
Herbert was 14 of 32 for 242 yards with a 40.9 passer rating.
