With Titans offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger delaying chemotherapy until Monday so that he can coach his team, his team isn’t coming through for him.

Tennessee trails in Houston at the half, 14-0.

Running back Chris Johnson, who left with an injury and returned, has only three carries for two yards. Receiver Randy Moss has two receptions for 22 yards, twice the number of catches he made in two prior games with the team.

For the Texans, quarterback Matt Schaub has thrown for 137 yards and two touchdowns.

The loser of today’s game will slide into last place in the AFC South.
