Schaubenfreude (n.) – The act of enjoying the sight of another team having quarterback problems.

On that note, Deshaun Watson was remarkably meh again last night, going 22/40 with two lost fumbles (one of which was run back for a TD by T.J. Watt), a pick-six, six sacks, and a passer rating of 70.3. That’s a worse stat-line than Kenny Pickett, who had a 71.8 rating. I’d like to add that C.J. Stroud is hands-down better than all four QBs that played on Monday, including Bryce Young.

Well, with the exception of a very costly fumble early in the game, C.J. Stroud had some really solid numbers today, especially since we’ve lost 4/5 starters on the offensive line. The running game was obviously hot garbage, and the defense got royally shredded in the first half, but I’m still liking Stroud and the progress he’s making. Also, Nico Collins had himself one hell of a game with 146 yards and a TD, and then Tank Dell added 72 yards and his own TD. Lots of injuries, lots of rookies, but some positive signs moving forward.
