Monday Night Football Week 5 2012

This week's game comes from New Jersey, as the New York Jets host the Houston Texans. Houston led off in the first quarter as Matt Schaub threw a 34 yard touchdown pass to Owen Daniels, and Shayne Graham was good on the extra point. New York tied it as Mark Sanchez passed 27 yards to Jeff Cumberland for a touchdown, and Nick Folk's extra point was the equalizer. The Texans took the lead again in the second quarter on a 13 yard touchdown run by Arian Foster, and Graham was there with another extra point. Houston struck again as Graham kicked in a 27 yard field goal. The Texans padded the lead in the third quarter on a Graham field goal of 42 yards. The Jets got some back on the ensuing kickoff, which was returned 100 yards by Joe McKnight for a touchdown, and Folk handled the PAT. Houston shot back as Graham was true on a field goal from 22 yards out. New York answered in the fourth quarter on a 21 yard field goal by Folk. It wasn't enough to avoid a 23-17 loss, with Houston moving to 5-0 while the Jets drop to 2-3.
