The Houston Texans face their biggest test of the season — the battle within the tackles. 💥 Can Houston’s offensive line hold up against one of the NFL’s most disruptive defensive fronts? The Seattle Seahawks are sending only four rushers on 84% of dropbacks yet still generating a 37% QB pressure rate (4th best in the league) and leading the NFL with a 36.3% defensive stunt rate 😳

We break down:

How the Texans’ offensive line can survive Seattle’s chaos up front 🧱

The scary-good combo of Byron Murphy and Leonard Williams (7.5 sacks combined) 💣

Why Sam Darnold has quietly become one of the NFL’s most efficient QBs 👀
(1st in EPA/play, Big-Time Throw Rate, ADOT, and Explosive Pass Rate)

What C.J. Stroud and Bobby Slowik must do to exploit Seattle’s weakness — 240 passing yards & 10 TDs allowed through the air 📈

This is going to be a tough, physical, and defining matchup for Houston. Can the Texans protect their young QB and pull off the upset? Or will the Seahawks’ defensive storm be too much to weather?
