HOUSTON (AP) — Rookie Kareem Hunt continues to pile up yards and help the Kansas City Chiefs keep winning.
"Hunt just continues to stay strong in the fourth quarter with his endurance. He's got ball-carrying endurance," Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. "I don't know,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, for a big guy, he can skedaddle and we really needed him there."
"I'm impressed with the things that he can do with his feet and with his arm as well," Hopkins said. "Everybody knows he can run,Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic, but still he looks downfield to make plays. The throws that he made toward the end of the game were some special throws."
Hunt was happy that he could keep the offense moving at times when things weren't going as well in the passing game on Sunday night.
Hunt leads the NFL with 609 yards rushing. He's the first Chiefs rookie to have 600 yards rushing since Christian Okoye finished with 660 in 1987.
He's excited about the possibilities for the offense as Watson continues to develop.
"Sky's the limit for him," Reid said. "Heck of a player. Elusive. Big arm. Sees things. Loves to play. He's got all that stuff ... Houston is lucky to have him."
He had a 6-yard score in the second quarter and added 34- and 1-yard touchdowns in the fourth quarter.
Hunt had 29 carries for 107 yards on Sunday night as the Chiefs (5-0) remained undefeated with a 42-34 win over the Houston Texans.

"That's why they call football a team sport,Alexis Sanchez Chile Jersey," he said. "Those guys have my back. When we're down in (the) pass game, I know I got their back."
It was the fourth 100-yard rushing game for Hunt, who was drafted in the third round out of Toledo. He needs one more to tie Joe Delaney's franchise rookie record of five set in 1981.
Both teams had several players injured on Sunday night led by Houston's J.J. Watt breaking his leg in the first quarter. The team announced that he sustained a tibial plateau fracture. The three-time Defensive Player of the Year returned this season after missing the last 13 games of last season after his second back surgery. Houston also played most of the game without linebacker Whitney Mercilus after he suffered a chest injury in the first quarter, which coach Bill O'Brien said he is concerned about.
"Turnovers are tough. They get you in the long run,Brett Favre Falcons Jersey," Reid said. "Alex has always been good with that ... and our ball carries are hanging onto the ball, receivers are hanging onto it. It's important.
Houston receiver DeAndre Hopkins had a career-high three touchdown receptions on Sunday to tie a single-game franchise record. He's the first Texan to have three touchdown receptions since Andre Johnson did it in 2013 against the Colts.
He leads the league with seven carries of 20 or more yards this season, his three carries of 40 yards or longer are also most in the NFL and he's tied for third with four rushing touchdowns.
Watson continued to impress in his fourth NFL start, throwing for 261 yards and five touchdowns to become the first rookie quarterback with five or more touchdowns in consecutive games in NFL history.
"It's a great feeling," he said. "I love winning and the biggest thing is to get a win."
LIMITING TURNOVERS
He made several big plays on Sunday night, but the most jaw-dropping one came when Rakeem Nunez-Roches tried to strip the ball out of his hands as he scrambled away from the pass rush. Watson smoothly moved the ball from his right to left hand to keep it away from Nunez-Roches before switching it back to his right hand and launching it 48 yards for a touchdown to Will Fuller early in the fourth quarter.
