Keenan McCardell checks in with the keys for Houston to prove they can still be the team that started the season 11-1.
The keys start with pressure. Everyone knows about J.J. Watt, but McCardell believes the Texans need to get pressure up the middle and push the pocket back so Tom Brady doesn't have clear throwing lanes.
The only key bigger than pressure, is to not let Brady have a chance to begin with. That means clock management. The Texans will need to control the clock with Arian Foster and keep Tom Brady on the sidelines.
