The win streak is ALIVE, and the Houston Texans keep the momentum rolling with a gritty, boring-but-beautiful win over the Colts inside Lucas Oil Stadium. Winning ugly is still winning — and this victory matters big time for Houston’s playoff push.

CJ Stroud returned and played well, Nico Collins went OFF, and the Texans’ offense did just enough to get out of Indy with the dub. But the real story?

This defense showed UP.

The No. 1 offense in the NFL held to 16 points

Jonathan Taylor kept under 100 rushing yards

And Derek Stingley Jr. put on a SHOW — one of his best performances of the season

This was the type of game playoff teams find a way to win. Quiet. Tough. Gritty. Necessary.

So what does this win really mean for Houston?
Two words: Don’t. Stop. Believing.
Because the AFC South Division Championship and the NFL Playoffs are not just dreams — they’re a real, attainable opportunity.
