CIN-HOU grades: Texans’ front-seven dominates against run

Houston Texans 12, Cincinnati Bengals 10

Here are the top-graded players and biggest storylines from Houston’s Week 16 win over Cincinnati to clinch a playoff spot.

Quarterback grade: Tom Savage, 65.5

Savage earns average grade in first start

Making his first career NFL start, Tom Savage had a forgettable night. Savage took care of the ball and didn’t record any turnovers, but also didn’t do much to advance the Texans’ offense down the field. He attempted just six passes 10-plus yards downfield, completing three for 49 yards.
