Texans coach DeMeco Ryans called running back Joe Mixon a force after his three touchdown performance in Houston 34-10 win more than the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football.

Mixon became third player in NFL history to have at least 10 rushing touchdowns in first eight matches with new team and the first since running back Eric Dickerson in 1983 with Los Angeles Rams.

“We put it together in pass game and run game. So that is something we can build from”

“Just take these games and stack off of it for rest of season, we know what we got to do. It was like our best week of practice all season so you got to build on that”.

Mixon did heavy lifting for the Texans offense as he scored all of its offensive touchdowns and rushed for 109 yards.

His three rushing touchdown were second most he had in single match in his career.
