QB Brock Osweiler: Texans' red-zone offense is 'unacceptable'

HOUSTON -- Houston Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler didn't mince words when describing the struggles the offense had in the red zone in Sunday's 22-17 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.

"Going 1-for-5 in the red zone offensively is unacceptable. Period. It's just unacceptable," Osweiler said. "We had an opportunity to give our team a little bit of cushion."

Osweiler was referring to the two drives Houston started in the red zone after interceptions; safety Quintin Demps picked off Colts quarterback Andrew Luck in the first quarter to set up a drive that started at the Indianapolis 16, and safety Andre Hal intercepted Luck in the third quarter and ran the ball back to the Colts' 18.
