Just another Texans game this past Sunday. Houston won in Cincinnati 30-27, moving to 5-4 on the season, 2-3 on the road. Yeah, that is about all on that one, I think...well, if you don’t count:

  • CJ Stroud passing for ONLY 356 yards and a mere 1 TD with his second INT on the season (arguably his worst throw as a Texans). Ok, he did have a rushing TD, but 3 less TDs and 114 yards less passing from last week;
  • Houston rushing for a season-high 188 yards, the most since 2021 with Singletary getting the highest rushing total for a Texans player (150) since 2019;
  • Houston falling down early 7-0, overcoming 2 first half turnovers in CIN territory (including the worst call against the Texans this season), only to outscore the Bengals 27-10 early into the 4th quarter, where the defense got 2 INTs off of Joe Burrow, only to throw a bad INT to let the Bengals get within 3 with less than 4 minutes left;
  • The Texans playing their 5th straight game where they held a one-score lead at the 2 minute warning and the other team driving, letting Tyler Boyd go off on a 64 yard catch-and-run, only to get bailed out by Boyd dropping the go-ahead TD catch on 3rd and Goal;
  • CJ Stroud then leading his second-straight game-winning walk-off drive, this time setting up Matt Ammendola (I know, you were expecting Ogunbolwale, but anyway) for the 38-yard FG to win at the final whistle.
