Another win for the Texans makes it four in a row. This defense has been absolutely magnificent recently and it continued as they stifled Drew Brees, holding the high flying Saints to just 228 yards through the air and kept him and the Saints out of the end zone. Here is what we learned this past week:
1. The Texans have shored up the run defense
Mark Ingram ran for 52 yards on nine carries yesterday. While that is good for 5.8 yards per carry (more than Brees averaged through the air per attempt), 29 of those yards came on one run.
