       So it was a rough week for the Texans. They gave up 44 points
       and 2 returns back for a touchdown. Even though the defense was
       able to cause 3 turnovers it didn't help them out too much. The
       offense didn't really give them too much help. Only scoring 23
       points. They were able to get 2 touchdowns but everytime they
       were in the red zone they were only able to come away with 3
       field goals. David Carr had a good game today. His best game of
       the season. He was 25-40 for 304 yards and 1 touchdown.  He
       didn't even throw a pick in this game. He threw for 63% not a
       bad game passing. Andre Johnson makes it a lot easier when he is
       your receiver. Johnson had himself another great game. He had 7
       receptions for 124 yards. He didn't get a touchdown but he still
       but up big numbers. Carr got help from his other receivers as
       well. Miller and Bradford were both able to grab 4 receptions.
       And Gaffney had 3 receptions. Even their running back had a
       couple grabs. Davis had 4 receptions for 35 yards and 1
       touchdown. Davis didn't have much of a running day.  Only 9
       attempts for 55 yards. He had a good day running. He  was tough
       to put down today. Why they didn't run the ball more is beyond
       me. They had a good day running it. They should of kept running
       it, they might of had a chance of winning if they kept running.
       Now the defense might have had 3 interecptions but they weren't
       playing very well. I'm sure it didn't help that the offense
       wasn't giving them much help. They gave up 487 yards. They were
       good at stopping the passing game with giving up 195 yards. Yeah
       not the best amount to give up  but it was better than the 292
       yards they gave up in the running game. They had an average of
       20.9 yards per carry. The Chiefs running backs just had their
       way with them and that average per carry is the highest given
       all season by a team. It was a very rough game for their
       defense. No one on the defense really standed out. The rookie
       Glenn Earl got his first interception but other than that no
       really highlights on defense. The Texans will be hosting Oakland
       next week we will see how they do next against them. They can
       only hope they can stop the passing game like they did with the
       Chiefs.
