Official Texans @ Colts Game Thread, 10/17/2021

[Keith]

Jags finally won a game, ending a 20-game losing streak. Had to go to foreign soil to do it though.

In this game, first two Texans drives all ended in punts. A Jon Greenard sack helped force the Colts first drive to end with a punt.

Texans needed replay to overturn a Phillip Lindsay fumble (he was down). But a sack of Davis Mills ended any hopes of the Texans getting close enough to consider a long FG attempt.

0-0, 5 mins left in the first quarter.

Nico Collins active, has a catch already. Mills finding Brandin Cooks three times already for 20 yards.

Long 51-yard pass from Carson Wentz to an open Parris Campbell, TD Colts.

Terrence Brooks, who got the start, injured in the end zone. Up walking around after a commercial break.

Colts 7, Texans 0. 1:52 remaining in 1st quarter.

I watched that game. It was entertaining. Not a Jag or Meyer fan but you could see relief on his face as the monkey jumped off his back...

And there goes TY Hilton again....

Taylor only had like 2 carries in the first half.

Texans defense showing an overall lack of talent today.

[Arky]

Texans terrible at finishing drives today. They're moving the ball and getting no results. A lot of dinking and dunking.

About a quarter to go and ToP is Texans 28:09, Colts 17:55.

Colts have several explosive plays and are not messing around....
