Fantasy Football: Week 5 defense rankings

The Houston Texans have been the early season punching bag of the NFL, and it's no secret why. Without Tyrod Taylor under center, the Texans have been forced to start Davis Mills at quarterback, and the results have been horrible, to say the least.

The Bills destroyed Houston 40-0 in Week 4 when Buffalo D/ST was our top-ranked defense.
