The Houston Texans moved to 1-3 on the season Sunday with a 26-0 shutout victory over the Tennessee Titans at NRG Stadium. They are showing signs of growth, but still leave room for improvement.
Running back Nick Chubb fueled the effort and etched his name in the league’s history books, surpassing 7,000 career rushing yards in the Week 4 matchup. In doing so, Chubb became just the sixth active NFL running back to reach the milestone.

The Texans' defense anchored the win by holding Tennessee scoreless and limiting the offensive rhythm throughout the game. Houston's offensive unit popped out with its first red-zone touchdown of the season in the second half, capitalizing on consistent drives following the first touchdown. The Texans will travel to Baltimore to take on the Ravens next week, then enjoy a bye week before heading to Seattle later in October.
