Was Week 7 Loss a Reality Check?

The Houston Texans are 2-5 after falling to the New York Giants and third string quarterback J.J. McCarthy. That's a sentence you probably didn't expect to read before the season.

A year after McCarthy couldn't lead a functional offense with the Vikings, he efficiently moved the ball on the Texans defense to the tune of over 250 yards and 20 completions on 28 attempts.

What's your takeaway from the disappointing overtime loss?
