Johnson, who also scored two touchdowns against the Bills, leads the NFL with 1,091 rushing yards. He is one of three players in NFL history—Jim Brown (1963) and Adrian Peterson (2007) are the others—to rush for 1,000 yards and average 6.4 yards per carry in his team’s first nine games of a season.
THE TEXANS
The Texans, who will have two weeks to prepare for the Titans, own a 5-4 record coming out of their bye last week. They last played Nov. 8 at Indianapolis and nearly forced overtime against the division-leading Colts. However, a Kris Brown field goal attempt at the end of regulation sailed wide left, and the Colts prevailed 20-17.
The Texans offense has been one of the NFL’s best this season, as evidenced by their sixth overall NFL ranking. Quarterback Matt Schaub is ranked sixth in the NFL with a 98.1 passer rating and third in passing yards (2,653). His primary target, wide receiver Andre Johnson, is third in the league with 800 receiving yards.
