The Patriots defeated the Texans 28-16 in the divisional round, but several New England players expressed dissatisfaction with individual performances. Rookie left tackle Will Campbell acknowledged responsibility for pass‑blocking breakdowns after facing Houston defensive end Will Anderson Jr., who recorded three sacks; the Texans totaled five sacks and two QB hits. Campbell said the margin for error is small against elite opponents and that he needs additional practice to clean up mistakes. Campbell was the No. 4 pick in the 2025 draft and ranked among the top rookies during the regular season, but he has struggled in playoff matchups.
