Texans Defense A Strong Option In Week 8

Texans Defense A Strong Option In Week 8

one year ago

The Houston Texans defense will come off their Week 7 bye with a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers. The Texans D/ST has been better than expected in fantasy in the early going, which should continue into Week 8. Houston held the Saints offense to just 13 points in Week 6, and they haven't given up more than 21 points since Week 2. As a result, they have scored double-digit fantasy points in three of their last four games. The only downside of the Texans' defense has been their lack of sacks. Their nine sacks rank dead last in the NFL. But with a rookie quarterback in Bryce Young under center, they are a strong play this weekend.
