New Orleans (4-7) didn't score a touchdown for the first time since 2005, snapping a streak of 155 games and Drew Brees' streak of games with a touchdown pass ended at 45. [...] the problems weren't limited to offense as the defense gave up several big plays in the first game since defensive coordinator Rob Ryan was fired and replaced by Dennis Allen. Brian Hoyer, who threw two touchdown passes, went 7 for 7 on the opening drive, capped by a 10-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Griffin, to make it 7-0 and give Houston a score on the opening possession for the first time this season.
