'Things don't happen overnight': Texans trying to fix NFL's worst rush defense with Giants up next

HOUSTON -- If you look up the two biggest rushing performances by a team this season, the Houston Texans will appear twice, but not for the right reasons.

The Texans' defense was on the receiving end of those performances: Once in a Week 8 loss against the Tennessee Titans (314 yards) and again a Week 3 loss against the Chicago Bears (284).

If you search for the most rushing yards for a player in a single game this season, the answer, again, involves the Texans, as Titans’ running back Derrick Henry finished with 219 yards on 32 carries in Week 8.
