The Texans downed the Arizona Cardinals 21-16 at NRG Stadium to notch their third straight win and record the team's longest win streak since 2018. Houston rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud completed 27-of-37 passes for 336 yards, two touchdowns and a season-high three interceptions. His stellar connection with fellow rookie Tank Dell continued, as the wideout finished the game with eight catches for 149 yards and a TD. Texans linebacker Blake Cashman led the defense with 19 tackles and a sack, while Derek Stingley Jr. grabbed his first pick of the season. Houston is sitting second in the AFC South at 6-and-4. The Texans will now host the AFC South rival Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon.
