HOUSTON (AP) – Houston coach Gary Kubiak presented Arian Foster with the game ball after his record-setting game against Indianapolis. Foster immediately handed it off to his offensive linemen, saying they deserved the credit.
Kubiak said Monday that just about every unit merited some praise after the Texans’ convincing 34-24 win over the Colts.
Foster ran for a team record 231 yards, the second-highest rushing total in opening weekend history.
The Texans defense pressured Peyton Manning all day and sacked him twice. The linebacking corps played well without 2009 Defensive Rookie of the Year Brian Cushing, and the young secondary forced a key turnover.
Even the new kicker came through. Neil Rackers connected from 30 and 49 yards to give Houston the early lead.
