MIAMI -- There was a familiar feeling to the Miami Dolphins' 17-9 victory against the Houston Texans (1-8) on Sunday. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett found receiver Mack Hollins for a 5-yard touchdown late in the second quarter to give Miami a multiple-score lead for the third time this season.
That's where the familiar feeling came to an end.
Unlike the previous two occurrences, Miami (2-7) held on to its multiple-score lead against Houston and ended its seven-game losing streak, overcoming five turnovers and an inability to move the ball on the ground.
