The Texans' offense is abysmal by every point of measurement, and the defense is wearing down as a result of getting no time to recover between series. Ryan Mallett hasn't looked great, but he hasn't played as bad as Hoyer did last week. He needs a bit more protection from a decimated offensive line, and it would be really super if the receivers could find a way to catch a football.
O'Brien better figure out something quickly to turn this game around.
Texans/Panthers game finally, mercifully, goes to half. Mallett 11/29 for 74 yards. That's an incomprehensible 2.55 yds/attempt

Texans are 3 of 12 on third down in first half

O'Brien not happy coming off field. He blew off #Texans Radio interview. Halftime intws are never productive anyway.
