Texans hung around, but lost to Eagles on Thursday Night Football in Week 9

Despite hanging around in the second half, the Houston Texans lost their Week 9 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football. The team fought hard, and proved that they could play competitive football, but saw their record sink to 1-6-1 on the season.

Quarterback Davis Mills got off to a fast start, but faltered for the Texans late, throwing two decisive interceptions that ultimately doomed Houston’s comeback effort. Rookie running back Dameon Pierce continued his run of excellence in 2022, rushing for more than 130 yards, though he did not manage to score a touchdown.
