5 takeaways from Colts’ 32-31 loss to the Texans

The season of disaster for the Indianapolis Colts has officially come to an end.

In what was a surprisingly high-scoring game, the Houston Texans were able to find a way to win despite giving up their two-score lead in the second half.

The game was littered with turnovers, up-and-down quarterback play, and a relatively quiet home crowd in Lucas Oil Stadium. The Indy offense was led by Zack Moss and Deon Jackson on the ground as they helped get the offense to 196 rushing yards.

The defense had a rough first half but was able to spark the comeback attempt in the second half. In typical fashion for the Colts, they failed to close out the game in the fourth quarter as the Texans overcame two different fourth-and-long situations to get a touchdown to go down one.

Lovie Smith elected to go for two and they were able to convert it to take the lead to get the win. The common theme of not finishing games is how Indianapolis ended its season.
