The Houston Texans (6-1) will look to build on their AFC lead when they take on the Buffalo Bills at Reliant Stadium in Week 9 of NFL competition. Despite the Texans seemingly strong backfield, the Bills have put up more yardage per carry against opposing defenses. However, Buffalo hasn't fared too well at halting the rush from the other side of the pigskin.

To the surprise of many, Bills QB Ryan Fitzpatrick has thrown for more touchdowns than the Titans Matt Schaub thus far in the season. However, with Buffalo's pass protection at a minimum, Fitzpatrick has been forced to let go of the football more often.

Nonetheless, the Houston defense has been the main factor in the Texans' nearly flawless record. However, the same can't be said for the Buffalo defenders, who have been at the opposite side of the respective spectrum struggling mercifully.

The Bills will look to overturn their luck by making some changes to their injury-riddled defense by replacing defensive end Mark Anderson with Chris Kelsey and by inserting Chris Hairston at right tackle in place of Erik Pears.
