Six days after the loss on Monday Night Football, there they were again; with the ball, late, with a chance to take the lead. Then the turnover virus flared up again. Tom Savage’s interception to end Houston’s final threat shouldn’t diminish what was a tremendous effort by him and the offense on one of the toughest injury days you can imagine.
During the game, the Texans lost C.J. Fiedorowicz, Bruce Ellington, Braxton Miller and Alfred Blue on offense. We’ll get to the defense later. Andre Ellington played a ton on a draw-it-up-in-the-dirt kind of day that saw Savage throw for the most yardage in his career.
