Standing inside the visitor’s locker room, rookie running back Dameon Pierce summed up the exasperated mood surrounding the Texans.
The Texans could easily be 3-0, but they aren’t. Instead, they have failed to win a single game and are 0-2-1 after their latest setback: a 23-20 defeat to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.
“Fighting for yards, I’m a violent runner,” Pierce said. “I try to get every yard I can. I just got to make sure I got that ball security, emphasizing that when I’m fighting for extra yards. Nothing too crazy, just in traffic, got to make sure I keep that balled up.” The Texans are dismayed by their record and how flashes of strong performance aren’t carrying over in the fourth quarter. They’ve been outscored 30-0 in the fourth quarter.
“He ran the ball pretty good,” Howard said. “He ran hard all night. He’s a talented back. We just got to keep feeding him.”
