Hands down, this is the worst loss of the DeMeco Ryans era. Tennessee struggled to win against New England, a team Houston beat by three points, but it seemed like the former Houston team was at home.
With the returns of Anderson, Collins and Lassiter, the team seemed to be getting back on track. Houston just won by double digits at Arlington and saw the ground game become the backbone.
This was nothing more than a cruel joke on the city. It's been five weeks since the Texans dominated an opponent, but four of the opponents are currently under .500. You wouldn't know that based on how Houston kept everything under control early in the fourth quarter.
Houston found a way to win last week behind a defensive score and a late Mixon touchdown. Six days later, the Texans secured the defensive points, but the offense seemed to find every opportunity to shoot itself in the foot.
And when it comes to talent, Dallas is way ahead of Tennessee.
