Not much has worked for the Houston Texans on the ground. Here's what has: Woody Marks and run right

The Houston Texans entered the season hoping for a revamped running game after struggling on the ground in 2025. That hasn't happened. Entering Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers, the Texans rank fourth-worst in the league in yards per carry and have the second-fewest carries through eight weeks. "I want us to move the football," coach DeMeco Ryans said. "Run, pass, it doesn't matter. I want us to move the football and score points." Houston has mostly done that through the air, with most of its total yardage coming from the passing game.
