Football 101: The game winning drive

When Texans returner Keith Mumphery was tackled by special teams star Winston Guy at the Texans ten-yard line near the end of the third quarter, I remember thinking that’s a long way to go with…

...the team’s fourth quarterback of the season on the field

...an injured starting receiver
…no touchdowns in 25 straight drives

Luckily, the Texans offense didn’t see it that way. 90 yards? No problem.

There have been some drives this season that I’ll remember for a while. The one in Cincinnati that led to DeAndre Hopkins’ TD catch is memorable.
