The Houston Texans' season-long flair for the dramatic showed itself on a national stage Monday.
So did their flair for losing in dramatic fashion.
With quarterback Matt Schaub passing for 393 yards and three touchdowns on 31-of-62 passing, the Texans rallied from a pair of 21-point deficits before losing to the Baltimore Ravens in overtime, 34-28, at Reliant Stadium in Houston.
Ravens cornerback Josh Wilson returned an interception 12 yards for a touchdown on the second possession of overtime to give Baltimore (9-4) the victory.
The Texans (5-8) trailed 28-13 entering the fourth quarter, but turned in two touchdown drives of 99 and 95 yards, with Schaub passing five yards to Pro Bowl wide receiver Andre Johnson in the back of the end zone to pull the Texans to within two. Schaub's two-point conversion pass to wide receiver Jacoby Jones tied it at 28-28 with :21 remaining.
Houston had 301 second-half yards. Johnson notched nine receptions for 140 yards and two touchdowns on the night.
