Share this: Fans of the Houston Texans can take solace in their team’s running game, if nothing else. Houston rushed for 109 yards Thursday in its 27-0 loss to the New England Patriots.

Running back Lamar Miller ran for 80 yards on 21 carries. Quarterback Brock Osweiler and running backs Alfred Blue and Jonathan Grimes added another 29 yards on six carries combined. Many responses to the Texans’ tweet suggest fans would rather have seen a better performance than save a few dollars on a snack. Here’s hoping the new and improved McNuggets

By EDDIE PELLS AP National Writer RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Usain Bolt sauntered onto the track, stretched out his arms and waved his hands, signaling for more applause.
