The Facts: According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, HC Bill O'Brien tells reporters that Mallett is still the starter heading into Thursday's game against the Colts.
Diehards Line:
The Texans had no shortage of reasons for being behind 42-0 to the Falcons and Mallett was one of them. The fact that Brian Hoyer was at the helm for three scores might have been reason to switch back to the Week 1 starter, but O'Brien will stay the course with Mallett.
