Stroud's 353 yards didn't translate to points; Bengals' defense prevented drive finishes.

Stroud threw for 353 yards, so the Texans' offensive shutdown wasn't some dominant statistical shutdown. Houston moved the football effectively, finishing with 22 first downs and 374 total yards. However, Cincinnati consistently prevented Houston from finishing drives. The Texans went 5-for-17 on third down and 0-for-4 on fourth down, never reaching the end zone. The Bengals' defense created stops despite Stroud's yardage production.
