## Resource

The Houston Texans are desperate to rebound after a brutal loss to the Bills, where they surrendered 36 points — and now face another elite QB in Joe Burrow and the Bengals. Contrary to popular belief, GM Nick Caserio insists Burrow’s offensive line is holding up well, citing their strong showing against Tampa Bay. He warns that Burrow’s quick release and sneaky mobility make him a tough matchup, even without the running ability of Josh Allen. With the Texans’ pass rush barely registering two sacks last game and their defense allowing its worst scoring total since 2023, the team must step up fast — especially players like Kamari Lassiter — if they hope to stop Burrow and avoid starting 0-2.
