I think the key with Stroud has always been what you ask him to do...The last few weeks they have abandoned that and opened the offense up. Stroud works better when things are spread out and he is working in tempo.

Stroud thriving in spread tempo offense after Texans abandoned failed run-first identity

Stroud's performance has improved significantly this season because the Texans have finally recognized what he does well and accentuated it. The source notes that Stroud works better when things are spread out and he is working in tempo; he is not as athletic as other quarterbacks but is athletic enough, doesn't have as strong an arm as others but is extremely accurate when he has time to throw. The biggest improvement is simply recognizing what he does well—the Texans abandoned their failed running team identity and opened the offense up in recent weeks, which suits Stroud's skill set.
