RB Dameon Pierce says Texans worked all week on pitch that led to 75-yard TD run

HOUSTON — The Houston Texans offense looked sluggish from the start. Their first four offensive possessions were putrid, to put it mildly. Quarterback Davis Mills threw an interception on the third play of the game. Two possessions later, kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn missed a 46-yard field goal.

Mix in two punts, and you can visualize Texans head coach Lovie Smith on the sideline wondering if his team knew that the game started at noon. Especially with how the Los Angeles Chargers began the game by scoring three touchdowns in their first four offensive possessions.
