How can C.J. Stroud, Texans can overcome Year 2 hype? Ask Matt Schaub.

As a two-time Pro Bowler who led the franchise to its first winning season, Matt Schaub is arguably the most decorated quarterback in Houston Texans history. He has some helpful advice for the signal caller who will likely surpass him in the franchise record books later this decade.

Schaub, who took home Pro Bowl MVP honors in 2009 after replacing an injured Tom Brady, and who posted a 44–36 record as Houston's starter from 2007-13, didn't enter the NFL with anywhere near the fanfare of C.J. Stroud. But there are still plenty of parallels between Schaub's rise and Stroud's standout rookie season.
