Are texans always this conservative with the pass rush, or is it just after JJ Watt got injured? Constantly a 4 man contain rush

Last year our only pass rush other than Watt was Clowney. This year Mercilus started hot but he isn't good enough to be the #1 pass rusher where the line keys on him. So we have zero pass rush. Our secondary isn't strong enough to play short (if we blitz) or sustain for a long time (when we don't get to the QB with 4 man rush). So basically we are screwed.

It's both - Whitney Mercilius can get pressure, DJ Reader is a grinder pass rusher who just powers his way to the QB - but this pass rush is REALLY trying to contain today, this isn't normal.

How do you use Omenihu? Only in pass rush packages or? He had some potential coming into the draft
