Texans Tidbits: what we learned from week 8

While the loss in Miami a week ago was embarrassing, the Houston Texans came back nicely as they defeated the Tennessee Titans 20-6 at home on Sunday. Here are the things we can take away from the victory over the division rival Titans:

1. Whitney Mercilus, not Jadaveon Clowney, is the #2 rusher to J.J. Watt

In the game Mercilus had 3.5 sacks, a career high and half of the Texans seven sacks for the game. Watt added 2.5 sacks, and now is tied for the league lead in sacks with Chandler Jones at 8.
