The Houston Texans’ offense has been sluggish all year, but not for lack of effort to fix their sundry issues in both the rushing and passing games. The unquestionable leader of the offense has been an unlikely star, rookie running back Dameon Pierce, who has been the team’s top contributor since week 1.
Tight end O.J. Howard commented on the team’s struggle to move the ball on Monday after their brutal Week 8 loss at the hands of the Tennessee Titans. Establishing the run, Howard said, was the team’s primary focus, and will lead to more openings in the passing game in the coming weeks.
