In the second-most significant victory of their six-year existence, the Texans spotted the Carolina Panthers 14 points before undergoing a Clark Kent-type transformation and scoring a team-record 34 of their own. After trailing by two touchdowns in the first quarter thanks to scoring passes from Jake Delhomme to Steve Smith, the Texans pulled off their biggest come-from-behind victory on the road, scoring 34 consecutive points to beat the Panthers 34-21 and post their first 2-0 start. "Down by 14 in the first quarter, the old Texans would have thrown in the towel, but we think more of ourselves now, and that's no longer acceptable," left tackle Ephraim Salaam said after the victory at Bank of America Stadium. "We're not what we used to be. We're not the same team. "We're trying to be something different: a winner. A consistent winner." The win set up an early AFC South showdown with Indianapolis next Sunday for the division lead.
