Will the Texans offense be their best Defense ?

Watching Texans cornerback dunta robinson glide through
another practice session, I couldn't help but think he's going
to be a busy man on Sunday.

Robinson understands Peyton Manning will present a stern test
for the Texans secondary.
But at this point, he's not concerned with the point spread
for the game, Manning's completion percentage ,
or even the lotto numbers .

The only digits he's worried about this week are zero and 8,
with zero being the number of times the Texans have
beaten the colts.

" I'm very sick of losing , its frustrating,
we need to win and that's the bottom line," Robinson said.

I asked second year man Travis Johnson if he was taking
it as a personal challenge to pressure Manning .
The big defensive tackle responded by saying ,
" I think we all take it as a personal challenge
just to play good sound football."

Maybe the best defense for the Texans might be a good
offense , if they can keep Manning off the field .
But to do that , they must have sucess running the football.

Running back Wali Lundy says its simple ,
"I need to be more explosive , when there's nothing there,
I need to try and make it on my own this league is about
playmakers."

But another rookie, Demeco Ryans summed up the
matchup vs Indy best , " Its not tough , its a great challenge,
what an opportunity going against this great team showing
the world what you can do. "
