Staffers with Good Vibes

  • Jason Wood: The franchise is well ahead of schedule on its rebuild, having found a generational talent at quarterback, a head coach that's garnering rave reviews, and a young nucleus of talent that can grow together.
  • Ben Cummins: C.J. Stroud is the truth, and the offense is loaded.
  • Julia Papworth: The feel-good team of last season returns to build on their AFC South Divisional win. They added Stefon Digs and Joe Mixon to the offense, and the fantasy community waits to see if C.J. Stroud can duplicate his incredible rookie season.
  • Ryan Weisse: After an excellent rookie year, C.J. Stroud could be even better in 2024 with the addition of Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon.
  • Bob Harris: After an impressive debut season for head coach DeMeco Ryans, the Texans retained offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. They also made moves to double down on QB C.J. Stroud's 2023 Offensive Rookie of the Year campaign by adding Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon to Nico Collins, Tank Dell, and Dalton Schultz, giving Slowik and Stroud an impressive array of weapons.
  • Kyle Bellefeuil: With young star C.J. Stroud at quarterback and a loaded wide receiver core, the Houston offense is in a good spot. 
  • Jeff Haseley: An average team can become a good team with improved quarterback play. That's where Houston is now after C.J. Stroud's rookie season. More is expected as the team builds around him. The defense is also improving under DeMeco Ryans. This is a team on the rise.
  • Phil Alexander: The additions of Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon make this offense even more difficult to defend.
  • Andy Hicks: Rightfully, expectations will be sky-high after the rookie season from C.J. Stroud. You always fear a sophomore slump, but the Texans hit several home runs in 2023.
  • Jeff Bell: The team weathered the Deshaun Watson storm and came out with an exciting young franchise quarterback and a high-powered offense. 
  • Corey Spala: Houston adds firepower for C.J. Stroud to continue a second-year leap into superstardom.
