'HE'S OUR QUARTERBACK': HoustonTexans coach Lovie Smith was unequivocal and firm in his stance Monday regarding struggling quarterback Davis Mills. Read more from our KPRC 2 Sports Contributor AaronWilson_NFL:
Although Mills has had problems in his second NFL season following an encouraging end to his rookie year, including a pair of interceptions Sunday during the winless Texans’ loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, Smith was adamant that he is not contemplating a change under center.
In the fourth quarter, Mills has completed 16 of 33 passes for 216 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions while being sacked six times.On third downs, Mills has completed 21 of 40 passes for 209 yards, no touchdowns, and two interceptions and has been sacked five times. Mills sailed a pass intended for wide receiver Nico Collins in the first quarter, getting off to a bad start as the takeaway led to Herbert’s touchdown pass to tight end Gerald Everett.Mills did throw his first touchdown of the season to a wide receiver, connecting with Cooks. And he found backup running back Rex Burkhead for another score along with a 58-yard pass to Collins.
This marked his first two-interception game at home. The Texans’ fans booed several times after unsuccessful drives.
