NFL Week 5: Falcons 21, Texans 19 — Four Winners, Four Losers

During the first four games of the Houston Texans' 2023 season, they've won at home, they've lost at home. They've lost on the road, they've won on the road. The one thing they had not done, as of Sunday morning, though, was play in a close game. Their two losses were by an average of 14 points, their two wins were by an average of 22 points.

In the end, a Younghoe Hoo field goal with no time remaining provided the winning margin, and the Falcons defeated the Texans, 21-19, in a game where the Texans will look back at so many missed opportunities. The loss was indicative of a young team, still learning how to win. The arrow is still pointed up for the team long term, but the Texans somehow made Desmond Ridder look like Patrick Mahomes on Sunday, which is not easy to do.
