Houston Texans (2-1) Lose to the Cowboys (1-2)

By Katrina King

They didn't even have the defense to keep them in the game and they - the Texans- were pick to win the game by 3. They entered the game sluggish although Andre Johnson was seemingly shut down early in the first half with an ankle injury (7-4-64) 7 attempts, 4 catches 64 yards.. They scored a field goal in the first quarter, yet showed signs of sluggishness. The Texans have won 6 stright games coming off last season performance against the Cowboys.

Cowboys #94DeMarcus Ware had 3 sacks in the game. He too, needed to show up in todays game....and he did putting constant pressure on Texans quarter back Matt Leinart. Matt Leinart scored in the fourth for the Texans with a 1:15 left to play.

Wade Phillips tied his fathers(Bum Phillips) record for wins against a Houston team. His dad was head coachof the Houston Oilers. He retired in 1985 and resides in Texas. Proud to see his son and grandson (Wes Phillips, coordinator for the Cowboys).

Dallas intercepts the ball with :44 left in the game by #40 and get the ball back and began to snap it....meaning with seconds left in the game and leading the game by a good percentage - they do not have to call a play.

The Cowboys win 26-13
