Houston hasn't been at its best on offense. The most the team scored was 19 points in Week 2 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers . They are only averaging 12.7 points per game, one of the worst offenses in the league three weeks in.
Ryans reflected on the loss after the game, per reporter Aaron Wilson. He is aware of how poor the offense has been to start the season, but emphasized the need for the team to stick together in difficult times.
"Of course, we want to play better offensively, right? We just got it; we all are sticking together. We got to find a way to make sure we figure it out, and we will, because I know we have the right people," Ryans said.
He continued: "We got the right staff, we got the right players; we just got to figure it all out, and we got to go show it. It's not me saying that; we just got to go show it, and that's when we'll see the improvement again."
