From 2010-2012 Arian Foster posted an NFL best 47 total touchdowns: 41 rushing and 6 receiving. Also during that span, he posted three consecutive seasons with 10+ rush TDs (16 in 2010; 10 in 2011; 15 in 2012). Foster led the NFL in rushing touchdowns in both 2010 and 2012. Since the advent of the common draft in 1967, he and Priest Holmes (twice) are the only undrafted players to lead the league in touchdowns multiple times. Over the past two seasons, Foster has only accumulated a total of 9 rushing touchdowns while missing 11 games due to injury.

On October 8th, 2012, Arian Foster surpassed 5,000 scrimmage yards (3,629 rushing, 1,374 receiving) in his 40th career game, reaching the milestone in the third-fewest games in NFL history. Only Edgerrin James (36) and Pro Football Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson (39) recorded 5,000 yards from scrimmage in fewer games.

In week 16 of 2014, Andre Johnson became the 10th receiver in NFL history to record 1,000 receptions. He is the second quickest player to hit the 1,000 reception mark, doing it in just 168 games. Marvin Harrison reached the milestone in 167 games. Johnson is currently 9th on the all-time receptions list. However, a mere 91 receptions with the Indianapolis Colts would bolster Johnson all the way up to the No. 3 spot on the all-time reception list behind only Jerry Rice (1,549) and Tony Gonzalez (1,325).

J.J. Watt is the only player with at least 15 sacks (20.5) and 15 passes defensed (16) in a single season, doing so in 2012. Watt led the NFL with a franchise-record 20.5 sacks that season, a total that tied him with Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor (1986) for the sixth-most in a season at the time. In 2014, Watt recorded 20.5 sacks once again, second only to Justin Houston's 22.0. Watt is the first player in NFL history to record multiple 20+ sack seasons in a career.

J.J. Watt recorded 5 TD in 2014, becoming the first player in NFL history to record 20+ sacks and more than 1 touchdown. In winning his second Defensive Player of the Year, award Watt joined an elite class of Reggie White, Lawrence Taylor, Bruce Smith, Mike Singletary and Ray Lewis. Each of those players, with the exception of Lewis, are enshrined in Canton, and Lewis is certainly on his way. Could Watt join Lawrence Taylor to become only the second player in NFL history to win three Defensive Player of the Year Awards in 2015?

After failing to reach the postseason their first nine years in the NFL, the Texans made the playoffs in back-to-back seasons for the first time in franchise history in 2011 and 2012. They defeated the Cincinnati Bengals in the Wild Card round each year, before losing to the Ravens and Patriots in the Divisional round. Only four times since the Wild Card round was implemented in 1978 have two teams matched up in consecutive seasons, and all four times the same team won both games.

In 2002, rookie QB David Carr got sacked a lot: A lot as in an NFL record 76 times. Unfortunately for Carr, year one wasn't an aberration for the No. 1 overall pick. In five seasons with the Texans, Carr was sacked at least 40 times on four occasions. When he left Houston following the 2006 season, Carr had been sacked 249 times, just 4 fewer times than Carson Palmer has been sacked in his 11-year career.
