Summary

It might be hard to believe but the Texans were a dominate defense last season, ranking second overall. They were third against the pass and fourth against the run. This unit did it all as the team took a big step forward. It might be hard for the team to repeat last season, especially with Mario Williams gone, but they still have plenty of talent in place and should do well. The secondary is very good with cornerback Jonathan Joseph leading the way. And the linebackers do a great job for the Texans, including Brian Cushing and Bradie James - two young players on the rise. The pass rush is a bit of a concern with Williams gone but Antonio Smith and J.J. Watt should provide some nice sack totals for the team. The special teams have potential with Daniel Manning as their kick return man. He has a history of some big returns and rookie Keshawn Martin should get his chances as punt returner, filling the void left by Jacoby Jones.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

The Texans will have a hard time matching last season but should be considered a fantasy starter. They have sack and interception potential while limiting yards and points. Houston is the real deal defensively. Last season wasn't a fluke.

Houston Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips said he is concerned about Ed Reed's (hip) recent hip surgery. "Anytime a guy's operated on, you're concerned, especially at this time of year," Phillips said. "If it'd have been right after the season, it'd have been different. So there's a little concern, but the good thing about (Reed), he's experienced it before. He's an experienced guy. You have no problem with him studying or knowing what you're doing. He's going to spend all the time it takes off the field to get ready. So I think Ed'll be ready when it's time."
