New England Patriots fail to slow down Texans offense

by Mark Leipold | Patriots Correspondent | Mon, Dec 2nd 1:18pm EST

The New England Patriots allowed 28 points and 276 yards of offense in their Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans. The defense failed to force a turnover, but recorded three sacks.

Fantasy Impact:

Certainly a down game for a high-end defensive unit, and they should bounce back with no problem. However, that bounce back game is more likely to come in Week 15, as the Patriots face off with the Chiefs next week. It's worth scoping our the other options for the first week of most leagues' playoffs, but definitely hold the Patriots D/ST for Week 15 against the Bengals and Week 16 against the Bills.
