WATCH: David Culley tells Texans he is ‘proud’ of them following 26-7 win over the Packers

Houston Texans coach David Culley was not bashful with his feelings following his team’s 26-7 win over the Green Bay Packers Saturday night at Lambeau Field.

Although the win was in a preseason game, it was the first 60 minutes of live action in the Culley era. There was no better way to get it started than with a victory, even though it may have been in an exhibition contest.

The Houston Texans official Twitter account posted a video of Culley talking with the players after the win.

“Are we locked in? You know what, when we first started out there tonight, we looked like we were locked in,” Culley said on the video. “We didn’t finish it like we wanted to finish it. We didn’t do things like we wanted to do things consistently. But we did enough tonight. They do keep score, right? And when they keep score, the object is to what?”

“Win,” the players in the locker room uttered.

“And we did that,” said Culley. “And that’s what’s important tonight. Okay. We’ll correct the mistakes. We’ll get everything done that needs to be done, but proud of you tonight. Proud of you tonight. From the time we left to the time we got here to right now. On our way back, same thing. Make sure we’re taking care of our business.”

The Texans can go for their second preseason win in a row when they face the Dallas Cowboys on Aug. 21 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
