It has been a weird decline for the defense to not force more turnovers. Missing Cushing, Manning, and some outside pass rushing has really hurt, of course.
This stat alone is one you can point to though for a reason why the team could turnaround quickly next year even with all the holes they have. They've lost a lot of close games (until lately...) where even a +0 ratio could have a huge impact on final scores. |

The other side of the turnover ledger needs to be addressed, too, obviously.

I believe the record low for takeaways in a season is 12. Texans now have 11, I believe. So, if they don't force another turnover, the record is theirs!
