Best and Worst Graded Houston Texans Defensive Players vs. Tennessee Titans
The Houston Texans have been able to hang their hat on the defensive side of the ball as the offense has continuously tried to figure out the issues on that side of the ball. However, in their 32-27 loss to AFC South divisional rival the Tennessee Titans, the Texans' defense couldn't do enough as the offensive issues that have plagued them throughout the season once again showed their ugly face.
Statistically, the Texans' defense didn't quite do as bad as things seemed after coming away with three turnovers including a pick-six that was returned for a touchdown by Jimmie Ward. However, the Titans were one of the worst teams in the league on offense, and allowing them to put up almost 400 total yards isn't going to get the job done.
Will Levis had a field day, outside of being sacked eight times, and running back Tony Pollard had one of his best performances of the year after rushing for 119 yards and a score. The Texans will need to regroup on the defensive side of the ball and return to their elite level of dominance as they look to hold onto the top spot in the division.
