The Texans put up a good fight Friday Night in Dallas but they came up a two point conversion short in the 4th quarter.  Matt Schaub had a solid game as he completed 15 of 27 passes for 166 yards with a 11-yard TD pass to WR Kevin Walter.  Sage Rosenfels was also effective in this game as he completed 4 of 8 passes for 29 yards with a 8-yard TD run on his only carry.  Chris Taylor led the way on the ground for the Texans with 47 yards rushing on 11 carries (4.3 ypc).  Rookie Steve Slaton was also effective carrying the ball 10 times for 44 yards (4.4 ypc).  WR Kevin Walter led the way in the passing game for the Texans with 61 yards on 6 catches (10.2 avg) with a TD grab.  Andre’ Davis (3 receptions, 46 yards) and TE Owen Daniels (4 receptions, 35 yards) also looked good last night in the passing game for the Texans.  The Texans finished up with 114 yards rushing on 28 carries (4.1 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 35 passes for 195 yards.

The defense didn’t look too good for the Texans against the high powered Cowboys’ offense on Friday Night.  CB Jacques Reeves and LB DeMeco Ryans each led the way for the Texans with 7 tackles apiece.  The Cowboys finished up with 111 yards rushing in this game on 27 carries (4.1 ypc) and they also completed 24 of 32 passes for 273 yards passing.
