The Texans managed to hang on in Indianapolis to maintain their lead in the AFC South in what was another prime example of the Texans’ phenomenal pass defense.
The opening half began with the Colts managing to drive down the field 74 yards before Houston’s defense held them to force a field goal for the Colts. The Texans responded a few series later when a errant throw by Andrew Luck was intercepted by Quintin Demps, which left the Texans in the Colts’ red zone. However, the Texans could not capitilise and they too had to settle for a field goal.
