DeMeco Ryans addresses lack of defensive pressure vs Jaguars in win

The Houston Texans had a lot of good things in their 34-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, their defensive line wasn't one of them, as they didn't get a sack all game. It was the first time since Week 13 of 2024, also against the Jaguars, that the Texans did not record a sack.

Especially with the talent Houston has on defense with All-Pro Will Anderson Jr, five-time Pro-Bowler Danielle Hunter and three-time Pro-Bowler Jadeveon Clowney, they should at least be able to get one sack in a game.

However, Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans gave all the credit to Jacksonville’s offensive game plan to eliminate their defensive line while also acknowledging the field conditions.

“From the pressure standpoint, the ball was out pretty quickly. I thought Trevor [Lawrence] did a good job of getting the ball out quickly. They had a really good game plan for our guys,” Ryans said. “The field, the surface was slippery for both sides. I don't think their defenders got any sacks either. It was hard to get that footing and get downhill in the rushes. I give credit to Jacksonville, first and foremost, for the game plan and how they executed.”

Houston should be able to get some sacks in their next game against the New York Giants. New York has a question at quarterback going into this game, but both Jameis Winston and J.J. McCarthy were sacked during the Giants’ loss to the New Orleans Saints. Between the two quarterbacks, Winston was sacked four times while McCarthy was only sacked once.

Still, this is an offensive line the Texans should be able to get after and cause some disruption against.
