Part 3/6:
Mucking Up Games: A Strategy for Success
One of the defining characteristics of the Texans’ game this season has been their uncanny ability to "muck up" matches. Under head coach DeMeco Ryans, the Texans have embraced a defensive identity that allows them to stay competitive, even in defeat. This strategy has kept them in close contests against formidable teams like the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders.
Their games rarely result in blowouts, reflecting a steady reliance on defense coupled with moments of offensive brilliance from CJ Stroud. The Texans excel at creating turnovers and capitalizing on their opponents' mistakes, reaffirming their identity as a tough-nosed football team.
