The Houston Texans have now won two games in a row, picking up a huge 44-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Baltimore hasn’t been playing well in recent weeks, and a lot its best players were out on Sunday. The Texans did what they were supposed to do, capitalizing on the Ravens’ weaknesses and getting right.
During the lopsided game, there was one viral moment, as things got a bit tense between the two teams. In the fourth quarter, rookie receiver Jaylin Noel caught a touchdown to put Houston up 41-10. To celebrate, the wideout broke out Ray Lewis’ signature dance, further upsetting an already angry Ravens crowd. Noel then tried to get the ball back, since it was the first touchdown of his career, and Baltimore corner Jaire Alexander decided to also grab the ball in an attempt to wrestle it away from the rookie.
Following the game, Alexander admitted that he didn’t appreciate Noel’s celebration, so he wasn’t going to let him get the ball back. The veteran corner says the Texans got mad, but there’s one problem: Noel did get the ball back. He made that clear on social media, sharing a picture of his first touchdown ball.

This exchange is just another W the Texans have over the Ravens. Houston already thoroughly dominated Baltimore during the actual game, and Alexander set the team up to be dunked on once again. Like the touchdown, Noel caught the alley-oop and absolutely delivered.
Now, Houston is 2-3 after getting off to an abysmal 0-3 start, and is hoping it actually turned things around after back-to-back win. Unlike the two teams Houston just beat, the Texans’ next four opponents all have winning records. This means Houston will either prove it really turned things around, or it was just taking advantage of struggling teams.
