In an absolutely crazy opening Monday Night Football Game, the Texans saw the heroics of Deshaun Watson and DeAndre Hopkins dashed by a last second Will Lutz field goal to snag the win for the Saints.
The Texans started strong with a red zone INT of Drew Brees by LB Whitney Mercilus. Immediately following this, the Texans unleashed Will Fuller with Watson connecting to Fuller on a 54 yard strike. This deep bomb was the start of a seven play, 94 yard drive that was capped by a 21 yard Deshaun Watson scamper into the end zone to put the Texans ahead.
