SNF: Colts vs Texans Game Thread

Sunday Night Football, week 6. Tonight we have an AFC South matchup between the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. The Texans come into the game at 3-2, with a struggling Brock Osweiler at quarterback. The Texans have lost All World defensive lineman J.J. Watt for the season. The Texans also have a long list of other injured players either out or questionable for the game. So far this year Brock Osweiler has been a huge disappointment, and the Texans offense has struggled badly, failing to put up 360 yards or more in every game this year. Nonetheless Houston comes into the game in first place in the AFC South.

The Colts come into the game with a 2-3 record. They are led by star quarterback Andrew Luck. Luck has bounced back from an off year in 2015, and the Colts offense has been pretty good. But the running game has been anemic and the Colts defense has been mostly terrible. That sets up a classic Colts offense versus Texans defense struggle in Houston, with first place in a weak division on the line.
