How much time does Davis Mills' game-winning TD buy the Texans regime?
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks makes a touchdown catch against Tennessee Titans cornerback Lonnie Johnson Jr. during the second half of an NFL football game, Saturday, Dec. 24, 2022, in Nashville, Tenn.Davis Mills bought time as he peddled to his left, as Brandin Cooks made his cut to the back of an ice-encrusted end zone, as Mills fired the go-ahead score that thawed a rebuilding franchise frozen within its nine-game losing streak.
Every win Smith, Hamilton and Mills deliver in Houston’s final two-game stretch into the offseason shifts leverage back toward their argument for full retention. Self-inflicted blunders abounded in tight games against the Cowboys and Chiefs in which the increasingly competitive Texans found creative ways to lose, but Smith believes the team’s ability to finally secure a win against the Titans offers proof more will come.
Hamilton dedicated most of Sunday’s game plan to a steady rotation of Mills and Jeff Driskel in a two-quarterback system that mostly ditched packages that featured both quarterbacks in the game at the same time. Driskel, the more mobile of the two, completed 3-of-4 passes for 40 yards in his best passing performance of the season, which featured two 15-yard throws on a bootleg and run-pass option that best featured his skills.
