Across the board strength


Half season statistical standings are eye-opening for our Texans

 

3 - our D rank in yards allowed (287, Ravens #1 at 268)

5 - our D rank in points allowed (18.1, 49ers #1 at 15.3)

4 - our D rank in 3rd down % (32%, Ravens #1 at 29%)

9 - our D rank in sacks (20, Giants #1 at 26)

5 - our turnover rank (+6, Lions #1 at +13)

6 - our O rank in total yards (395, Eagles #1 at 449)

8 - our O rank in points per game (25.8, Packers #1 at 33)

4 - our O rank in rushing (142, Eagles #1 at 180)

8 - our O rank in 3rd down % (45%, Saints #1 at 56%)

 

That is quite a balanced attack.  And if you look at the divisional standings and check out net points (PF-PA), we are second in the AFC to the Bills (61 vs 64).  The NFC has bigger spreads, with the Packers, Lions, 49ers and Saints all topping 70.
