The Houston Texans are 2-10 on the year after their 31-0 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13 at NRG Stadium.
Even though the Texans are in the midst of another double-digit loss season, their second straight for the first time since 2005-06, there are still some elements on the team that don’t reflect their record.
Take the defense. Houston’s defense entered Week 13 as the sixth-best in the NFL in terms of takeaways with 20. They even got a fumble recovery against the Colts despite the loss.
Houston also entered the league with the eighth-most tackles for loss with 55.
The run defense could still use work as they give up 4.5 yards per carry, tied for the seventh-most in the NFL. But no unit is exactly perfect.
Here are four NFL offenses that, if paired with the Texans’ defense, could be better than they are.
