The Texans are finally in the win column this season, although it didn't exactly come the easy way.
Jacksonville's Travon Walker gifts the Texans a first down by throwing down Davis Mills following a whistle on third-and-20, earning an unnecessary roughness penalty. Enormous rookie mistake. —The Jaguars go three and out and the Texans will have the ball at their 26 with 9:59 left. Still tied at 6-6. —Inopportune sacks continue to plague the Texans. Davis Mills was sacked for an 8-yard loss immediately after Houston stopped Jacksonville on fourth-and-1.
A 12-play, 49-yard drive with three third-down conversions ended with the Texans punting on fourth-and-1 from the Jaguars 49. The punt was downed at the Jacksonville 9. —Rookie cornerback Derek Stingley came up with the first interception of his NFL career inside the end zone to save points for the Texans. He probably shouldn't have ran it out because he was stopped at the 2-yard line. It was the first turnover of the day for either team.
Davis Mills began two drives by throwing first-down passes to Nico Collins using play-action out of two-tight end packages. Pierce has averaged 6.28 yards per carry out of three-tight end packages and caught an 11-yard screen out of a fullback package that signaled run.Three targets, two catches 13 yards —The Texans have to settle for three points after that delay of game.
