Anthony Richardson competed today and completed 48.5 percent of his passes. This number is decreasing.

The Colts quarterback has a big play for his team and a bigger play for the other team.

The Colts trailed 17-10 at halftime after the Texans used a Richardson interception for a one-play, 7-yard touchdown drive with 17 seconds left in the second quarter.

Richardson is 2 of 15 for 81 yards, with 69 coming on a touchdown throw to Josh Downs after safety Jalen Pitre fell to the ground on crossing routes that took him out.

But Pitre took revenge shortly before half-time.

On second-and-3 from their own 12, the Colts had Richardson throw. Kamari Lassiter dropped what would have been a pick-six. For some reason, the Colts allowed Richardson's third throw with 34 seconds left.

Richardson was tired on downs, and Pitre intercepted it at the Indianapolis 17 and returned it 10 yards.

On the next snap, CJ Stroud found Tank Dell for a 7-yard touchdown.

Stroud was under pressure from start to finish and the Texans replaced guard Kenyon Green with Jarrett Patterson, but Patterson only lasted a few players before heading off for a concussion evaluation. Stroud has two sacks and six hits and is 16 of 26 for 156 yards and a touchdown.

Joe Mixon has 10 carries for 34 yards and a highlight-reel touchdown run of 14 yards, and tight end Dalton Schultz has four catches for 52 yards.

Jonathan Taylor rushed for 36 yards on eight carries for the Colts.
