The Texans had a dismal Thursday night on national TV as the Philadelphia Eagles pecked their way to a 29-17 win at NRG Stadium and improved their record to 8-0. Dameon Pierce continues to be a force on the Texans offense putting up 139 yards while quarterback Davis Mills went 13/22 in passing with two touchdowns, two interceptions and three sacks.
