The Texans defense gave up a lot of yards on teh ground, but they cosistently stepped up and made plays against the run in short yardage situations.

The Chiefs O-Line, while improved, is not a drive blocking unit that is built for those situations, and defenses that are pounded up the middle by a drive blocking power running game are going to be worn ut up front by that kind of ground game.

The Texans defense wasn't worn down and beat up by that kind of ground game.

The Chiefs O-Line is more finesse than power.

Combine that with the fact that the Texans defense had plenty of time on the bench in the second half, and more specifically in the fourth quarter, and you have a defense that is not gassed.
