C.J. Stroud is excited for the Texans’ first win over the Patriots

C.J. Stroud spoke to the media about the performance of the offense and advice he gave Drake Maye after the game.

You guys were able to score a lot of points and put some things together. How did that feel as an offense?

C.J. : Yeah, first just want to thank God, you know, first win against the Patriots in our organization's history so I thought that was cool, but I felt like we were flowing in all aspects, you know, pass and run. Kind of just slowed down, you know, at the end of the first half. Can't do that, but other than that, I feel like we were hitting on all cylinders.

Did you have a second with Drake Maye at the end of the game? Did you get a chance to talk to him?

CS: Yeah, I gave him a little word, you know, tried to give him a little word of encouragement. I thought he played really solid, you know. Definitely feel like he'll get better and better as he keeps going.

Given what you've learned over -- what would you like to have known when you were at his stage that you know now that's valuable?

C.J. : Honestly just take completions, stay positive and make guys around you better. I would say those are the three things I would want to know and it doesn't happen overnight. It's not easy. He has a team helping him like I had last year. I had so many guys helping me. So definitely hope that helped him what I said but those three things definitely helped me on top of just being disciplined.
