I very nearly needed a nap after watching the emotional vacuum that was the game between the Jets and the Texans.
Perhaps the fans needed to flee for the Jets to win, as it felt more like a road game when Mark Sanchez threw a perfect, arching spiral to Santonio Holmes, who cradled it in for a stunning 30-27 win over the Texans.
The Saints are rolling, yet making little progress in the powerful NFC South. Elsewhere Sunday, the Patriots and Jets remained on top of the AFC East as New England edged Indianapolis and New York rallied to beat Houston.
"Somebody fell on the side of my knee, don't know exactly who it was, but I am gonna get treatment and see where it's at," the Jets' tackle said Sunday.
The fan came on the field from the corner of one end zone Sunday and dashed across the turf for about 80 yards before tripping and then being jumped on by several security officers, including two New Jersey State troopers.
Darrelle Revis shut down Andre Johnson before, holding the Houston Texans wide receiver to four catches in last year's season opener.
Wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery has been ruled out for the New York Jets' game against the Houston Texans with a groin injury.
It's clear that Jets head coach Rex Ryan is a fan of the movie Slap Shot. How else can you explain his rant earlier this week when he challenged Jets fans to have their butts in their seats in time for pregame warm-ups?
Santonio Holmes' eyes say it all. When it's late in a game and Rex Ryan needs a big play from his offense, he strolls over to his star wide receiver and takes a look at him.

One by one, the injuries piled up for the Colts and Patriots. They might have been enough to ruin lesser teams. They hardly slowed Indianapolis and New England.

The Cleveland Browns have reached out and expressed their concern to the father of an 8-year-old boy who was wearing a Jets jersey when he was allegedly tackled by a drunken fan following Sunday's game.
Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez was limited at practice with an injured right calf that shouldn't prevent him from playing in New York's next game Sunday against Houston.
Coach Gary Kubiak expects Schaub to return to practice on Thursday and be ready when the Texans play at the New York Jets on Sunday.
Mark Sanchez could have graced the covers of the September issues of several sports and men's magazines. "We didn't need any more pressure than we already had," Sanchez said.
Wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery joined Joe Benigno & Evan Roberts Tuesday to talk about the Jets' wild overtime win against the Cleveland Browns. Afterward, Bart Scott joined WFAN to break down the big game.
Plenty of words have been kicked around to describe the New York Jets this season. Good. Resilient. Tough. Advantageous. Then, there's the one that just burns them up: Lucky.
Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery says an MRI exam reveals he has a "slight" groin tear and his status for New York's next game is uncertain.
Mark Sanchez is on a roll, one that will have to continue if the Jets are to become what many think they can be. The second-year quarterback has gone above and beyond to this point and has no choice but to keeping making believers out of us.
