An offensive juggernaut under Yates they are not. I'd be shocked if, next week in Baltimore, the Texans get over 20. And in New England, even with the Patriots' weak D, I'd be surprised if they get over 30... and scoring 30 or less may not be enough.
Again, nothing against Houston, they have a lot of talent, but with Yates--and having to go on the road to Baltimore and then possibly New England--I don't see it happening for them this year.

1. I already gave you the INT.
2. There's blown coverages, then there's taking advantage of blown coverages. Must've missed where that best WR in the game is banned from the rest of the playoffs.
3. On that late TD, Foster's femur is bigger than the DB trying to tackle him, and that's why he powered past on the sidelines, not just 'giving up.' Again, must've missed where Foster is out for the season now.
4. I agree that Baltimore is capable of giving the offense fits. I disagree that the Pats are a foregone conclusion, be it high scoring or low scoring. More likely that NE's held by Texans' D to around 20, and it's up to the O to cobble together enough plays to overtake them. But NEs D is bad enough to make the Bengals efforts look like the '00 Ravens.
