NFL power rankings, Week 17: Chiefs rise, Seahawks fall

15. team. 10. You don’t win a lot of games in the NFL these days by gaining 250 total yards in four quarters. Luckily for the Texans, their stellar defense held the Cincinnati Bengals under 300 yards on the evening and surrendered only one touchdown in the victory. It was a forgettable first half for third-year quarterback Tom Savage. He would hit on only 2-of-7 passes for 13 yards and was sacked three times as Houston was blanked for the first 30 minutes. The strong-armed signal-caller would crank things up a little more after intermission and appeared to settle in. But there was little to get excited about here. <p>Next Week: Will Bill O’Brien stick with Savage for another week? If that’s the case, he has to plan on getting him plenty of reps as the team heads into the playoffs. The health of running back Lamar Miller is arguably the team’s biggest concern and it will be interesting if he gets another week of rest. The Texans travel to Nashville to face the 7-8 Tennessee Titans, who are out of the playoffs and will not have second-year quarterback Marcus Mariota after he broke his fibula in the 38-17 loss at Jacksonville on Sunday. O’Brien’s team will be playing in the first round of the postseason.</p>. 9-6. Previous: . Houston Texans
