Texans win defensive battle over the Vikings

One of the best games of year involved two of the best defensive teams in the NFL, and they did not disappoint. The Texans pulled away with a late touchdown run by Arian Foster, and Christian Ponder could not lead the Vikings down the field. The story of the game might have been Victor Cruz's injury early in the 3rd quarter, which slowed down the VIkings passing attack. The Vikings and Texans end up at 11-4, each with one game left.
