This was an odd preseason football game. Marred by an offense completely nonexistent for the vast majority of the game, the Texans had to win the game through unconventional means. An exciting sack and fumble by Jacob Martin (recovered by Charles Omenihu) in the first minute of the game that led to Mark Ingram’s first touchdown in a Texans uniform were the only noteworthy things to happen in the first half. Davis Mills, while continuing to flash that arm and anticipation from last week’s performance, was wildly erratic behind a line that bent to Dallas’s whim. Any sort of run game sought to be established with Ingram or training camp page-turner Scottie Philips was quickly snuffed out by that Dallas line and upcoming star linebacker Micah Parsons.
