Nickname for the Defense

I was a documentary about the Seattle Seahawks and how their defense got their nickname "Legion of Boom" So, since the season is coming up I was wondering what should we name the Texans Defense? Swarm, or The Bullpen ?
 
I always thought, and still do, that House of Pain was the best ever for Houston, and they deserved it at the time. I'll wait on naming this new bunch. They're good, plenty good enough to get you to the playoffs. But they ain't spectacular yet. If they keep improving every year, they will be soon enough.

(They need that offense to back them up and make them look spectacular.)

I'm hoping we will be able to call them champions after this season.

If the OL can just be alright then every other unit on this team is exciting enough to get their own nicknames.

Just gotta keep the QB clean and the running lanes open, and the D will have the opportunity to close out games.
 
Steel Curtain
Purple People Eaters
Tampa 2
Legion of Boom
No Fly zone

Nicknames only stick if u dominate and this group ain’t there yet. Let’s Hold off on naming them until they carry us to heights we’ve never seen.
 
If DR’s philosophy is to drop as many into coverage as possible then why not the “ Iron Dome” defense?…but only if it is working…
 
The nickname was established when Ryan’s became the HC.

S.W.A.R.M

DeMeco Ryans' "SWARM" philosophy as the head coach of the Houston Texans has two key meanings:
S.W.A.R.M. as an acronym: It stands for Special Work Ethic and Relentless Mindset. This is a core part of Ryans' coaching approach and is emphasized in all aspects of the team's operations, from physical and mental preparation to game review.
SWARM as a playing style: It embodies a "swarm mentality" characterized by all 11 players on the field running and hitting with physicality. This means defenders actively pursuing the ball carrier, with multiple players converging on them, and offensive players consistently working their blocks and engaging defenders until the whistle blows.
This "swarm mentality" isn't limited to the defense; Offensive Coordinator Bobby Slowik has made it clear that the offense also embraces this aggressive, fast, and decisive approach, focusing on knowing their assignments and playing with intensity. The coaches themselves also adopt this approach, displaying a similar "swarm mentality" in their own collaborative and anticipatory efforts during games.
Essentially, "SWARM" is about a dedicated, aggressive, and cohesive team effort focused on outworking and overpowering the opponent with a relentless mindset and physical Check out this video from this search,
