In a tough home opener at the Alamodome, the San Antonio Brahmas struggled to find their offensive rhythm, falling 27-3 to the Houston Roughnecks on Sunday afternoon. The Brahmas offense was held to 118 total yards and one third-down conversion, while Houston capitalized on a pair of rushing touchdowns and a late pick-six to seal the win.

The trio combined for 25 of the team's 49 total tackles and helped limit Houston's passing attack to just 167 net yards.

Running back Anthony McFarland delivered a productive performance on the ground, rushing six times for 40 yards, including a 25-yard burst in the first half.
