Titans vs. Houston: Key Halftime Stats for Houston

Texans fans will be happy to know that their boys are playing inspired football despite the fact that this game means nothing for their playoff seeding. Here are the stats that tell the story.

384: Number of days since Jake Delhomme played in an NFL game 

Thanks to a bone-crushing hit on TJ Yates, the Titans are onto their fourth quarterback of the year.  The Texans better hope he has figured out to throw the ball to the guys on his team

0: Carries for Arian Foster

The Texans are resting injury-prone Foster and Owen Daniels in preparation for their playoff opener.  With these two out, Andre Johnson is the only one of Houston's top four offensive weapons in the game.

60: Yards on the Ground 

The Texans are once again proving they can run the ball without Arian Foster.   With either inconsistent Jake Delhomme or inexperienced TJ Yates at QB, the running game will be the key to their playoff success. 

2: Number of Catches for Andre Johnson

With all of the Texans’ other Pro Bowlers sitting out, it is somewhat surprising to see Johnson in the game.  So far, he seems to be running well, but you have to wonder if risking his hamstring one week before the playoffs is the best idea.
