In a dominating performance, the Houston Texans crushed the Indianapolis Colts 56-10 in Week 3 of the 2026 season. With this victory, the Texans continue to assert their dominance in the league, showcasing both offensive firepower and defensive prowess against their division rival. C.J. Stroud was the star of the night, throwing for 277 yards and an impressive six touchdowns, connecting seamlessly with his top target Tank Dell, who racked up 114 receiving yards. David Montgomery also had a standout game on the ground, rushing for 113 yards, contributing significantly to the Texans' scoring onslaught. Together, this trio led a potent offensive attack that overwhelmed the Colts throughout the evening. On the defensive side, the Texans were equally impressive, with Will Anderson Jr. recording two sacks and Jalen Pitre snagging two interceptions, both pivotal in stifling any hopes of a Colts comeback. The game's turning point came midway through the second quarter when Pitre's second interception set up another quick touchdown for Houston, effectively sealing the game before halftime. The Colts struggled to respond, as Houston's relentless defensive pressure kept them off balance all night.
