HOUSTON - The Houston Texans are down to a fourth-string quarterback and No. 1 overall pick Jadeveon Clowney has hardly played all season because of a knee injury.Yet thanks to in large part to a defence led by J.J. Watt, the Texans are still in playoff contention with one week left in the regular season.Arian Foster threw for a touchdown, Randy Bullock made a franchise-record six field goals and Houstons defence dominated in a 25-13 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.With three quarterbacks hurt, the Texans started Case Keenum, who got his first win in nine NFL starts.Its pretty special, Watt said. I think its a testament to our team. Its a testament to the coaching staff, to guys we have. It was fun. Days like this are a blast.The Ravens (9-6) now need some help next week to get into the post-season after Joe Flacco threw a season-high three interceptions and the offence struggled all day.Houston (8-7) needs several teams to lose next week to reach the post-season for the third time in franchise history.Thats why we play, is to get in to the dance, Foster said. We didnt put ourselves in position to control our own destiny, but we gave ourselves a chance and as long as we have that chance were going to keep fighting.Keenum lost each of his eight starts last season before being released by the Texans in training camp. They signed the former record-setting University of Houston star off the St. Louis practice squad Monday after both Ryan Fitzpatrick and Tom Savage were injured last Sunday with Ryan Mallett already out for the season.Im not the best with words, and I couldnt put it into words, Keenum said. Arian said he was going to punch me if I cried. When you dont win, it makes winning very, very sweet.Keenum threw for 185 yards with an interception.Five things to know about Houstons win over the Ravens.FOSTERS ARM: Foster ran for 96 yards. But his highlight came when he took a pitch from Keenum and, with a defender in his face, threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to C.J. Fiedorowicz to make it 16-0 in the second quarter.Hes been waiting forever for a chance like this.My whole life, actually, Foster said. Everybody wants to be a quarterback. I feel like I have a good arm. So Ive been lobbying since Ive been in the NFL. They finally called it.NOWHERE TO RUN: The Ravens finished with a season-low 33 yards rushing, the fewest Houston has allowed all season. Flacco took the blame for some of the struggles in the running game.Part of it was getting me off the spot and then part of it was them stopping the run, Flacco said. That just shows that they were playing well up front. If we are not getting our running game going, it is going to affect us. Our running game wasnt working though for a reason. They were playing physical and they were playing well up there.WATTS NOSE: Houston defensive end J.J. Watt, who had a gash on the bridge of his nose that would open up and bleed in almost every game last season, got another injury to it on Sunday. He was hit in the nose midway through the fourth quarter and had blood running down his face into his mouth for a few plays before trainers tended to the injury.He said after the game that it felt as though he got hit in the face with a sledgehammer.But he found the best medicine to ease the pain.Everything feels better after a win, Watt said. So I dont feel it too much.The injury didnt slow him down any and he finished with a season-high eight tackles and had a sack, four quarterback hits and three tackles for losses. He has 17 1/2 sacks this season and a franchise-record 54 in his career.UNHAPPY HOMECOMING: Sunday was a homecoming for former Texans coach Gary Kubiak, who is now Baltimores offensive co-ordinator. Kubiak, who grew up in Houston, was fired last year in his eighth season with the Texans. Ravens running back Justin Forsett, receiver Jacoby Jones and tight end Owen Daniels also previously played for the Texans.It wasnt ideal, Daniels said of his return to Houston. It was an experience to be back here. I thought it was going to be pretty weird and it was.THIEVES: The Texans had three takeaways on Sunday to give them a franchise-record 34 this season, which tops the NFL. Theyve scored 123 points off those turnovers, which is also a team-record.Kareem Jackson led the way on Sunday with two interceptions and A.J. Bouye had the third one.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL NCAA Jerseys For Sale .

After spending most of the exhibition season with Cleveland on a minor league contract, Harang signed with the Braves on March 24 after a series of injuries to the teams pitchers. Making his Braves debut, Harang matched Matt Garzas no-hit bid into the seventh inning Wednesday, when Chris Johnson homered with two outs and sent the Braves to a 1-0 victory. "Its a huge pickup for us," Johnson said. "We were struggling with having guys go down, and were going to struggle getting guys healthy and to have a performance like that. its just what we needed." After season-ending injuries to Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachy, the Braves signed Harang and Ervin Santana. Given how good Garza was in his Brewers debut, Harang had little margin for error. "I looked up there after six and saw zeroes all the way across on both sides," Harang said. "I was just able to come out and keep them off balance and keep their team guessing. Then you see their guy throwing up numbers like that, and youre trying to do the same thing and give your team a chance to win. I was able to do that." Harang (1-0) didnt allow a hit until Logan Schafer grounded a single leading off the bottom of the seventh. He gave up two hits in 6 2-3 innings, struck out three and walked one, throwing 63 of 97 pitches for strikes. "After the first hit, the emotions just run out of you for a minute, but knowing that youve got a 1-0 lead youve got to stay in there and regain your focus and keep executing pitches," Harang said. "The bullpen was able to get me out of that jam and slam the door." Relievers Luis Avilan, David Carpenter and Craig KKimbrel held the Brewers hitless.dddddddddddd Kimbrel got three outs for his second save, completing a two-hitter. "Any time you get a 1-0 win, all kudos goes to the pitching staff," Johnson said. "He was fun to play behind. He was throwing strikes on both sides of the plate." Harang retired his first seven batters before walking Lyle Overbay, then retired 10 in a row before Schafers single. This marked the first time both starting pitchers in a big league game had not allowed a hit through six innings since June 13, 2010, when Ted Lilly of the Cubs and Gavin Floyd of the White Sox accomplished the feat, according to STATS. Alfonso Soriano doubled with two outs in the bottom of the seventh and scored on Chad Tracys single, and Lilly didnt allow a hit until pinch-hitter Juan Pierres leadoff single in the ninth. The Cubs won 1-0. Garza (0-1) made his first start for Milwaukee after signing a $50 million, four-year contract as a free agent. He allowed one run and two hits in eight innings, struck out seven and walked none, throwing 65 of 90 pitches for strikes. "Its one mistake and thats it. Its the big leagues," Garza said. "Youve got to pay for things like that, especially with the heater to the four-hole hitter." NOTES: The Braves have scored five of their six runs via four homers ... Garza hit a dribbler in front of the plate in the sixth that Harang fielded cleanly and threw to first for the out. Gomez followed with a drive down the left-field line that hooked foul, then struck out. ... Jason Heywards diving catch of a Ryan Braun liner to right in the fourth kept Harangs no-hit bid intact. ... The Brewers start a six-game trip Friday to Boston and Philadelphia. ... The Braves have Thursday off, then are at Washington on Friday in the Nationals opener. ' ' '
