Since the end of the 2013 season there has been lots of change with the Houston Texans on-field product. One of the biggest changes was the defense of the Texans as Romeo Crennel was hired to revamp the unit.

Crennel bring to the Texans a 3-4 scheme that has had success in the NFL, and I don’t expect anything different as the Texans learn to play this scheme of Crennel.

One Texans player, as reported by ESPN.com, who likes the new-look defense is safety D.J. Swearinger, as he was quoted in the ESPN.com article:

"“It’s a lot of adjustments, but it’s all adjustments for the better. We like it. I like it a whole lot better than last year because it gives us flexibility. We’ll be able to confuse a lot of the quarterbacks, switching up calls and stuff like that. I like it.”"

I can’t wait to see the final product of this defense by the time Week 1 rolls around. It might take even a couple weeks longer than that, but once this defensive unit clicks on all cylinders at the same time it will be a great sight to behold.

All fans of the Texans should be excited about this defense, because if noting else maybe it will off-set some of the problems we are bound to see on the offensive side of the ball as they figure out the the quarterback and wide receiver positions.
