Interesting article from a national NFL writer. Keen to get Sage's perspective having been here.

"They're the ultimate play-action team," Rosenfels explained. "They teach you to behave very similarly on run plays and pass plays, and it's very easy to get fooled. There were times when I played there that the back judge would walk up and say, 'Guys, I can't tell when it's a run and when it's a pass – your play action's that good.' For example, the fullback on a pass play will still hit the linebacker as hard as he can, like he would [run-blocking]. You really keep the defense on their toes, 'cause everything looks the same."

Entire article is worth the read when you have time. I know we here are very familiar with the schemes by now, but the way the Texans can still disguise this offense gives hope for continued success.
