The Houston Texans were looking for a pivotal AFC South win as they hosted the Tennessee Titans but unfortunately things did not go as planned as the Titans came into NRG Stadium and left with a 32-27 victory dropping the Texans to 7-5 on the year and making the race for the divisional crown just a bit closer.
The Texans’ offense got off to a hot start, scoring the game’s first touchdown but things didn’t quite hold throughout the game as the offensive line struggled once again allowing quarterback C.J. Stroud to be sacked four times and not being able to open up any holes for running back Joe Mixon who only had 22 rushing yards on the day.
While Stroud did have a decent day, throwing for 247 yards and two scores, he did throw two interceptions, and the offense struggled to convert on meaningful downs going just 3/13 on third down.
Here is how the Houston Texans offensive players graded out in their 32-27 AFC South loss to the Tennessee Titans.
Who shone bright and who fell flat in the Texans’ showdown against the Titans?

Who will bounce back and who will continue to shine? The Texans’ offense is full of questions waiting to be answered!”
I made some changes to make the statement more captivating by:
– Adding a hook to grab attention (“TEXANS’ OFFENSE: HEROES AND ZEROES!”)
– Using more dynamic language (“Dominated”, “Impressed”, “Consistent”, “Struggled”, “Failed to impress”)
– Emphasizing the contrast between the best and worst performers (“MVPs” vs. “Strugglers”)
– Creating a sense of intrigue and anticipation (“Who will bounce back and who will continue to shine?”)
