When Bill O'Brien traded away Jadeveon Clowney to the Seahawks in August, many of the Texans faithful already had some reservations.
Now with J.J. Watt out for the rest of the season with a pectoral injury, and with all the moves Houston made during this season, a spotlight is shining down on Bill O'Brien concerning some of the decisions the Texans have made with him at the wheel.
ESPN 97.5's Joel Blank explains why Bill O'Brien and the Texans are in a tough spot right now.

One of the main areas of improvement for the Texans this season, has been the running game with the addition of Joe Mixon.
Mixon rushed for 100 yards or more in 5 of his first 6 games with the team. But unfortunately for Houston, Mixon hasn't been nearly as effective recently.
When looking at his recent numbers, Mixon has failed to rush for more than 46 yards in 3 of his last 5 games. Posting only 26 rushing yards against Miami on Sunday.
With this in mind, is the state of Houston's run game a major concern, especially when the playoffs begin?
