Official Texans vs. Colts Game Thread, 12/6/2020

[Arky]

Fairbairn is good from 34 for the Texans with 5 seconds left in the half.

Colts 24, Texans 20

Texans kickoff and the Colts kneel it.

Halftime.

[Arky]

Rivers and Watson both with over 200 yards passing in the 1st half.

Colts with just 27 yards rushing. Texans with 63.

Texans outgained the Colts 266-236.

No turnovers either team.

All other stats kinda even but the Texans trailing by 4.

Somehow the 3rd quarter ends with no scoring. Texans were driving and a pass to Cooks was reviewed and ruled an INT while both players were on the ground and the ball was wrested away from Cooks. Still:

Colts 24, Texans 20

Start of the 4th qtr.

Texans at the 2 yard line and a bad snap to Watson ends it. What a crappy way to end a ballgame.

Indy got a safety earlier. Final score:

Colts 26, Texans 20

Hansen and Coutee both over 100 yards receiving....

Helloooo, anybody home?

------------------------------------------------

Texans opened as a 3 pt road favorite over the Bears next week. That quickly moved down to 1½.

I wouldn't say bad snap. It wasn't perfect, but that's on Deshaun. He's trying to move before he has the ball.

That was a heart breaker but thankfully I guess the game was meaningless.
Had to settle for watching the game on my PC, never was able to get setup on the TV with U-Verse/channel 11 thru locast.org.
What a PR fiasco - the cable provider and holding company for TV channel 11 manage to time their failed contract renegotiation right during the football season in the state of Texas.
