Watching the game tonight puts in sharper relief just how far the Texans have to go before they can seriously contemplate any sort of postseason run. The defenses of both teams are fast, aggressive, smart and violent. Unless you have an exceptional offense and special teams this is exactly the sort of defense you typically need to have any success in January and beyond.

Comparing tonight's defenses with the Texans is a profoundly depressing experience. There is almost nothing that you can parallel. It's exactly the way I felt years ago watching Carr and the other idiots under Capers play. I'd watch them and then watch a real team run their offense and it was like I was watching a totally different sport. There is absolutely no comparison you can make between those two defenses and the Texans' defense. The Texans have a LONG way to go.
