I doubt it. Did u see the game? It was 16-7 in the 4th so it was a lot closer than the score indicates. (A blocked punt for a TD and several TJ Yates picks later, one being a pick 6, turned the game ugly late) Early on the Falcons played it very vanilla with the players that did play. Ryan did see a good bit of action but Atlanta had been in Houston most of the week for organized practices and got game-like work in, so many players didnt play (Like JJ Watt, Foster, Johnson for Hou) and / or got limited game time. Fitz was Fitz and did extend drives on broken plays (and stupid illegal contact penalties) but should have been picked off several times. This one is exactly the type of game that gives fans false hope. Believe me, it could have easily gone the other way, but the Texans did look better than last week. Hard not to...
On a side note, Kendrick Lewis played well...Clowney looks to be the real deal.
