The New England Patriots were in desperate need of a big play on offense after falling behind the Houston Texans. Fortunately, running back James White was able to oblige.

Quarterback Tom Brady found White wide open coming out of the backfield for an easy touchdown, via NFL Twitter:

This was perhaps the most separation any pass-catcher has managed to get against Houston all day. Fortunately, White is doing what he can to take it upon himself to make plays as both a runner and a receiver.

Despite boasting arguably the best defense in the league, the Patriots knew full well they were going to need to put some points on the board in order to keep up with quarterback Deshaun Watson and this high-powered Texans' offense. Although New England has largely struggled to get anything going on offense, there is still more than enough time for a potential comeback if they can build on their momentum.
