J.J. Watt and Vince Wilfork on the goal line. Wildcat, direct snap to Watt.
The Texans are trying everything to beat the Chiefs.
Everything and anything.
J.J. Watt took the snap, and ran behind Vince Wilfork to try to get the Texans first touchdown of the game. The Texans also ran wildcat on the drive, which was the Texans best of the game. The Texans ended up empty-handed, however, as Brian Hoyer threw his second interception of the game at the goal line.
Watt lines up at RB, takes direct snap, loses 1 yard. What a terrible play. And Wilfork was locking. NEVER call that play again!
The first quarter was as bad is it could get for the Texans. Chiefs running back Knile Davis ran back the opening kickoff 106 yards for a touchdown, putting the Texans behind 11 seconds into the game. Brian Hoyer committed two turnovers in the first quarter, but the Chiefs could only turn that into three points. It was an eerily similar start to their meeting in the first week of the regular season, when Brian Hoyer threw an interception on the first play of the season.
Hoyer in particular is having a nightmare start to his playoff career. Two interceptions and a fumble in the first half, and its hard to believe the Texans are only down 13.
