Miami's biggest weakness has been their rushing offense, checking in at #29 in the league with a mere 3.68 yards per carry.

Houston's primary advantage has been their defense, which has allowed a scant 326 yards per game -- #6-best in the NFL. They've succeeded in large part due to their run defense, which has held opposing ground attacks to the #7-least yards per game: 4.24. To give credit where credit is due, their pass defense has also been terrific, checking in at #5 in yards per target (7.26). This Texans run defense has been anchored by their linebackers, who grade out as the #4-best unit in the NFL.
