It would be a feather in the Texans cap if they can pull off the win anyway...

[Arky]

Texans win the toss and defer, Giants receiving the kickoff.....

Ball is downed in the end zone, touchback. Giants ball at their 20.

Pass to Randle gets 4. 2nd and 6 coming up.

Jennings for 5. Brings up 3rd and 1.

Jennings for about 4 more and the 1st down.

Jennings for 2. 2nd and 8 coming up.

One reason the sharps are sharps is because they have ways of finding this stuff out before it hits the public.

Yep. And they're not always right, either. They are sharp because they always do better than Joe Public.

[Arky]

Fitz's pass to AJ is tipped, inc., nearly INT'ed.

Fitz pressured, scrambles for 5, short of the 1st down. Texans to punt on 4th and 1.

[Arky]

Williams for 4. 2nd and 6 coming up.

Pass to Cruz goes for big gainer. 81 yards. Morris tracks him down at the Texan 15. (Wow, good speed by Morris - I didn't know he was that fast)

Williams for no gain. 2nd and 10 coming up.

End of the 1st qtr.

[Nconroe]

I guess that is why we picked up Morris, to have some speed in the secondary. Nice run down of Cruz, but Giants threatening again.

[Nconroe]

Amazing, Kendrick Lewis causes fumble on 4 yd line and Joseph runs it out to 25 or so. Before that Giants drive looked pretty good.

Fitz needs to be careful, Giants getting their hands on a lot of passes right now.

[chuck]

Fitzpatrick's football IQ is about zero.

[Nconroe]

nice sack by MegaWatt , and then nice run by Bleu.
