(Writing this partially just after halftime. If the Texans win this, you never see it...)
Well, do we have our answer as to how Patriots Are Champions (even if they beat the shit out of their girlfriends like Donald Trump does his wife Ivanka).
CJ Stroud has thrown four interceptions in the first half of a 21-10 halftime deficit for his Texans to the Patriots.
Let's pull up the video, courtesy NFL Interceptions:
Here's the first one. Threw it only where the defender could get it.

Second one's a Pick Six and it's blatant:
Stroud just throws it up while under pressure. Sometimes it’s better to take the sack, here’s a perfect example of that.

Third one is an overthrow through the hands, so it looks like the receiver probably "helped" on this one:
This one is not Stroud’s fault. Hutchinson has to catch this, he had two hands on it.

Regardless, this is Stroud’s 3rd interception of the first half. Oof. pic.twitter.com/qXPUBLQKdM
With a side of ejection-level spearing on the hit.
And here's the fourth -- covered man, never should've thrown the ball, and he's lucky that wasn't caught in stride or that's a Pick Six too:
CJ Stroud with a full on disaster performance. His 4th interception of the first half. (3 his fault, 1 not his fault).

And yep, in the rain, the second half was never an issue. Patriots win, 28-16.
CJ Stroud threw the game, probably because they couldn't go through with another obvious officiating problem with the league rapidly running out of options.
