DeMeco Ryans sacked Collins, causing a fumble which he returned 26 yards for a touchdown that gave Houston a 7-3 lead in the first quarter.

The Texans managed 24 yards and two first downs in the first half, with the second one coming on a penalty. Jacoby Jones fumbled early in the first quarter and Rosenfels threw an interception and lost a fumble before halftime.

Rosenfels replaced Schaub midway through the first half after he injured his ankle on a sack. He threw the interception to Nick Harper on his first play.

Schaub returned in the second quarter, but was knocked out of the game just before halftime by a helmet-to-helmet hit by Albert Haynesworth. Rosenfels fumbled on the next play to set up a 28-yard field goal by Bironas, his fifth of the half.

Haynesworth said he didn’t think it was a helmet-to-helmet hit and said it would have been better if Schaub would have stayed in.

“Well, heck, I mean we probably would have won this game 35-7 if he stayed in,” Haynesworth said. “It was good to knock him out I guess, but he’s going to come back and I don’t think there’ll be any kind of quarterback controversy because they pay that guy a lot of money.”

Notes: The Texans had just 39 yards rushing. ... Titans fullback Ahmard Hall has a broken arm and will have surgery, Fisher said.
