Video: Lovie Smith gives first victory speech with Texans

The Houston Texans made sure to enjoy their first victory under head coach Lovie Smith Sunday.

After fumbling away a pair of late leads earlier in the season, the Texans made their way into the win column with a strong finish on Sunday afternoon. Rookie running back Dameon Pierce capped a 12-play, 74-yard touchdown drive with a goal line run in the final minutes to lift Houston past the Jacksonville Jaguars 13-6, as the defense pitched a second-half shutout.

The Texans shared a clip of Smith's first postgame victory speech with the team in Jacksonville.
