After hitting the hole and exploding for a 60-yard run, Hyde was caught from behind at the 1-yard line and stripped. The ball rolled into the end zone, the Jags recovered, and fantasy owners everywhere saw an opportunity for a monster game slip through their fingers.
Fortunately for Texans fans, the fumble didn't cost the Texans any ground in the game as Houston walked away with a 23-point win. Much of that came from Hyde who has 19 carriers for the aforementioned 160 yards.
