AFC Divisional Playoff Round; Houston Texans vs Kansas City Chiefs - Game Thread

[Porky]

First part of the plan worked - get 3.

Now for the second part…get a TD out of the halftime break

Second part complete, but the point after…ugh!

 

[Bugman7star]

Having solid rushing production is absolutely helping us today. We need to keep that going. Control the ball and score.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Force a turnover.

My fear is if we score a TD later we'll go for 2 unnecessarily too early to make up for it.

 

[amazing80]

Stroud's MCL is getting a workout.

If there was ever a time for Stroud to risk it all, it's in the post season.

 

[gwallaia]

Defense. Get Mad!

 

[Hoegarden]

It’s always something with this team. The football gods just dont like us

 

[TxnsJuggernaut1]

Special teams needs to be special like they have been all season!

 

[santo]

Why we letting KC return the kicks? No wonder Ross got pushed

 

[Texansballer74]

To the right side

Yeah finally. Brought 83 in motion and helped Mason sorry ash out.

 

[whodknee]

Win Probability​

59.7%

 

[amazing80]

FINALLY! A call against KC

 

[AcresHomesTexan]

defense make a big play turnover...you are well rested

 

[DocBar]

Why did the Texans get half-the-stance to the goal and KC only got 10 yds for the same penalty?

 

[Mr teX]

A flag on KC? I’m legit shocked.

 

[amazing80]

Why we letting KC return the kicks? No wonder Ross got pushed

Yeah, we are normally very solid on kickoffs. Disappointing to see that today

 

[MEGA SWATT]

If

Force a turnover.

My fear is if we score a TD later we'll go for 2 unnecessarily too early to make up for it.

how about a TD that the zebras tried to prevent and causing CJ to sacrifice his body ansd then CAREBEAR shanks point after.

Fuk the NFL.

 

[Bugman7star]

Are we not able to kick the ball into the end zone? Or is the strategy trying to force a turnover on the KR?

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Wind speed now 14 mph. with higher gusts

 

[cdollaz]

Taylor Swift, go away.

Who was that dude who was sitting next to her? Clark something?

 

[Hoegarden]

With the way the Texans are running the ball, they should be going for 2. Analytics be damned.

So you really thought they should have gone for 2 there BEFORE the missed kick?!

 

[amazing80]

Why did the Texans get half-the-stance to the goal and KC only got 10 yds for the same penalty?

location of the penalty. Half was less than the full 10 yards because of where it was on the field

 

[TxnsJuggernaut1]

It only takes one big missed call to change the outcome.

A missed call or a false one!

 

[Paverman]

A flag on KC? I’m legit shocked.

Got to keep up appearances.

 

[santo]

Yeah, we are normally very solid on kickoffs. Disappointing to see that today

He’s probably thinking we can get a turnover but so far KC has been getting decent field position.

 

[FlaCAV]

FINALLY! A call against KC

However, the ref had a look of agony on his face. Poor guy.

 

[nut]

Was that the first flag on KC? Sure seems one-sided.

 

[cdollaz]

Are we not able to kick the ball into the end zone? Or is the strategy trying to force a turnover on the KR?

Have you seen our kicker today?

 

[whodknee]

Who woke the refs up

 

[Earl34]

CJ is taking some hits man…he wants to win bad

I've seen more dive tackles at CJ's legs this game than Mahomes has taken the entire season.

 

[Texazan]

Gotta be holding

 

[JCTexan]

Are we not able to kick the ball into the end zone? Or is the strategy trying to force a turnover on the KR?

I think its just Fairbairn struggling with the wind today.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Wow a holding called.

 

[thunderkyss]

Remember the 1st time we beat Peyton Manning?

 

[Carr Bombed]

I just fell out of my chair in shock.

 

[amazing80]

Azeez, what are you doing? I know it's zone, but any time Kelce is near you, you have to cover him....bailed out on a hold call

 

[gwallaia]

Chief fans booing a penalty. That’s rich

 

[Texanmike02]

What a holding on kc?

 

[thunderkyss]

Taylor Swift, go away.

All i saw was Caitlin Clark.

 

[Texansballer74]

Wow they finally called holding.

 

[badboy]

Penalty on Trey Smith my free agent

 

[cdollaz]

The shock on Andy Reid’s face…that they actually had a call go against them. LOL.

 

[Earl34]

Yeah finally. Brought 83 in motion and helped Mason sorry ash out.

I would rather see an extra OL or FB for the remainder of this game than the 3 bunch sets.

 

[TxnsJuggernaut1]

Chiefs have figured out our defense!

 

[DocBar]

HOLY MISSED HOLDING CALLS!!!

 

[TheMatrix31]

Get them off the field!

 

[Bugman7star]

OMG you got to sack that man.

 

[badboy]

All i saw was Caitlin Clark.

Did it hurt your eyes?

 

[whodknee]

Now is not the time for prevent D....

 

[santo]

Blatant holding. Should have been a penalty

 

[Carr Bombed]

Why aren't we covering Kelce?
