With RB Arian Foster only averaging 3.2 yards per carry, the Houston Texans battery of QB Matt Schaub and WR Andre Johnson has stepped up. Johnson caught a wide-open, nine-yard toss into the end zone to tie it up against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
With interceptions in back-to-back games, Schaub has also avoided turning the ball over so far. Jaguars QB David Garrard’s stats today are almost identical to Schaub’s after a 52-yard Jags TD pass, but he’s not throwing his every other pass to Andre Johnson, so.

Chris Johnson And Ronnie Brown Trade TDs In Randy Moss’ Titans Debut
Seven minutes into WR Randy Moss’ first game as a Titan, Tennessee RB Chris Johnson has a touchdown already. Moss has zero targets in WR Kenny Britt’s absence, with neither team passing all that much. That’s partly due to the fact that both are running teams, but both are also down their starting quarterbacks at the moment. Vince Young is still out for Tennessee, and Chad Pennington left very early with an arm injury for the Miami Dolphins.
Dolphins RB Ronnie Brown actually struck first, but in second-paragraph fashion, with a two-yard dash to take advantage of a Titans fumble. Brown only has three yards on five carries against the decent Titans rushing D, but Johnson has already put up 42 yards on seven totes.
