In a commanding performance, the Houston Texans triumphed over the Indianapolis Colts with a decisive final score of 37-6, marking a significant Week 3 victory in the 2026 season. With this win, the Texans solidify their position as a contender in the division, while the Colts struggle to find their footing early in the year. C.J. Stroud led the Texans’ offense efficiently, tossing a touchdown pass to help secure the victory. Meanwhile, David Montgomery was a force on the ground, racking up an impressive 103 rushing yards, which allowed Houston to control the tempo of the game. The Colts' Aaron Rodgers, despite throwing for 159 yards, struggled to find the end zone, reflecting a tough outing for Indianapolis. Defensively, the Texans dominated the game, with Azeez Al-Shaair stepping up with two crucial interceptions that shifted momentum in favor of Houston. The turning point came in the second quarter when Al-Shaair's second pick set up a scoring drive that extended the Texans' lead to 24-6, effectively putting the game out of reach. With Sauce Gardner leading the Colts’ defense with three total tackles, it simply wasn’t enough to counter the relentless pressure and opportunistic play of the Texans' defense.
