NFL Week 6: Colts vs Texans Highlights
Tonight (Thurs., October 9, 2014) the Indianapolis Colts traveled into Houston’s Reliant Stadium to take on the Texans in a pivotal AFC South match-up.
Colts quarterback Andrew Luck brought a torrid hot streak into the game as he was on pace to set the NFL single season record for most completions.

After some more throws to Hilton, Luck found running back Ahmad Bradshaw for a 5-yard score (Vine):

The game seemed out of hand, but the Texans eventually got on the board with this insane touchdown catch from veteran wide receiver Andre Johnson (Vine):

The Colts added a late first half field goal to go into the break up 27-14. The Texans got within 27-21 with another score from Foster.
But the Colts bounced right back with a 33-yard score from Luck to Hilton that put them up 34-21 (Vine):
Hope was not lost, however, as the Texans scored an amazing touchdown on a fumble return by star defensive end JJ Watt, who broke out with this celebration (Vine):
The Texans made it a game and were threatening to take a late lead, but two fumbles by Johnson and Ryan Fitzpatrick gave the Colts the victory 33-28.
