Will Houston Remain a House of Horror for Dolphins?

The Miami Dolphins will be back in Houston on Sunday and they are due for a happy trip there.
This will be the first time in six years the Dolphins have played a regular season game in Houston and they'll be looking for done something they've never done before.
They will be looking to defeat the Houston Texans in a road game for the first time.
Yep, Houston has been a house of horrors for the Dolphins since the Texans entered the NFL in 2002 with five visits and five losses.
The last came in 2018 in a Thursday night battle that really wasn't much of a battle at all, as three players with Dolphins connections had big performances in a 42-23 Texans victory.
Quarterback Deshaun Watson, who the Dolphins were looking to acquire three years later, passed for five touchdowns that night and had a 156.0 passer rating. Running back Lamar Miller, who previously had played for the Dolphins, rushed for 133 yards and a touchdown. Wide receiver Will Fuller, who would join the Dolphins as a free agent three years later for a very brief and very forgettable stint, have five catches for 124 yards, one of them a 73-yard touchdown in the third quarter.
The other Dolphins losses against the Texans in Houston came in the 2012 season opener in Ryan Tannehill's NFL debut (30-9) after three heartbreakers in three consecutive seasons.
The Dolphins lost 17-15 in October 2006 when their two-point conversion attempt with 1:39 left failed; they lost 22-19 in October 2007 on a 57-yard field goal by Kris Brown with 1 second left after Dolphins QB Trent Green sustained a season-ending concussion; and they lost 29-28 in October 2008 on QB Matt Schaub's 3-yard run with 3 seconds left.
The Dolphins did win six games at Houston when it was home to the Oilers, the latest victory coming in 1996, the franchise's last year in that city before moving to Tennessee. That 26-23 victory in 1996 was highlighted by a 26-yard interception return for a touchdown by a Dolphins rookie fifth-round pick by the name of Zach Thomas.
The Texans are the only team in the NFL the Dolphins have yet to face on the road.
