Eheh, Tavierre Thomas with a pick 6 for the Texans!

Texans 41, Chargers 23

A 40-burger. 3 Turnovers by the defense. A 100 yard rusher. 4 quarters of pretty good football. 24 pts in the 4th qtr. Somebody pinch me, I'm dreamin'.

Chargers get a late score - TD pass to Palmer.

Going for two.....

Two point try no good.

Texans 41, Chargers 29

34 seconds left in the game.

Well done, fellas.... Might I add Davis Mills looked very capable today....

It's nice to see a terrible team try, that is absolutely true. And they've beaten a couple of good teams, too. Which will probably condemn the franchise to many more years of purgatory as the owner will surely conclude that the team's methodology is working, but that's a conversation we can have another time.

I agree winning doesn't help the Texans long term. But at this point I'd rather root for David Culley's interests and the interests of the players then the interests of the Houston Texans franchise. The coaching staff and players are a bunch of lovable losers in my eyes. The ownership feels like a modern version of the end of the Hapsburgs.

Texans play their last road game next Sunday vs. the 49'ers. Early line has the 49'ers as 15 pt favorites. Will be interesting to see if the Texans and Davis Mills can keep it going..... I, of course, will predict a 49er blowout......
