Four straight wins and a winning record has the Texans in the top half of these AFC power rankings for the first time this season. Leading the charge, not surprisingly, is J.J. Watt, whose five multiple-sack games and 13.5 total quarterback takedowns are stalling opponents’ drives and getting the ball back to Brian Hoyer.

And Hoyer has been doing good things with the ball, for the most part. He recorded his sixth game with a quarterback rating over 100 against the Saints on Sunday, finding tight end Ryan Griffin four time for 72 yards and a score.

We’ll see what this team is really made of in the next three weeks, as the Texans pay a visit to the frustrated but dangerous Bills next week before hosting the Patriots on Sunday Night Football and then the Colts in what will likely be the AFC South title game.
