HOUSTON — The Houston Texans dropped their fifth consecutive game in a 31-3 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Sunday afternoon, at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Unlike their play against the New England Patriots the previous week, the Texans never had a chance to steal a victory amid a wire-to-wire loss to the Colts. Indianapolis’ running back Jonathan Taylor rushed for a season-best 145 yards on 14 carries, while Carson Wentz threw for 223 yards and two touchdowns in their rout of the Texans.
As the Texans fall to 1-5 on the season, here are five takeaways from Houston’s loss to their AFC South counterparts, who now take firm command of second place at 2-4.
