I did not like the all out blitz on the critical 3rd and 15 that they converted. I think we can blitz one or two and still cover on that play. All out blitz was not necessary.

Also perfectly stated, that's what I've saying. All that blitzing will come back to haunt you. What's the best way to beat a blitz? A short pass up the middle or a screen. What did the Texans do? Just that, plus play action that the defense kept biting on over and over.
