The breakthrough game from running back Lamar Miller was no revelation to the Texans' coaching staff.
During Sunday's dramatic overtime win over the Indianapolis Colts, Miller displayed the kind of acceleration and creative moves that the Texans identified in him and prompted them to sign him as a free agent in March.
Miller's highlight reel now includes a classic cutback touchdown catch during which he eluded pursuit and bolted into the end zone. He rushed for a season-high 149 yards on 24 carries, had his first touchdown run since joining the team and now has 520 rushing yards through six games.
