Turnover differential, first down efficiency and penalties.
“When we don’t turn the ball over, and we take the ball away, we win,” the head coach said on Monday’s ‘Bill O’Brien Show’. “I mean, it’s a hundred percent. Yesterday we had three takeaways and we took care of the ball and we won the game.”
On the season, the Texans are at minus-2 in that category. They’ve turned the ball over 11 times and forced nine takeaways. In 2014, Houston set a franchise record and led the NFL with 34 takeaways. In the three victories this year, the Texans were plus-6.
