WEBVTT - Big finish to 2024 | Texans Matchup 0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:01.000 What's happening? Everybody? 0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:05.760 Welcome into another edition of Texas All Access Matchup Edition. 0:00:06.120 --> 0:00:09.400 I'm your host, John Harris, football, ANALST sideline reporter for 0:00:09.520 --> 0:00:14.640 your Houston Texans. Glad you are with me this evening 0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:19.840 right here on our wonderful program. And typically it's about 0:00:19.880 --> 0:00:23.079 this time where we start our Ultimate eleven from the 0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:23.840 previous week. 0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:26.520 Now, a couple of things with that number one. 0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:29.560 I don't know that I would have five plays much 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:32.960 eleven to get into an ultimate eleven after what happened 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:38.440 last Wednesday with the Baltimore Ravens on Christmas Day that 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:41.960 was kind of brutal. Plus it's been a while since 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:44.760 that game. So I thought, man, what can I do 0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:49.400 on this matchup show that we we look back a 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:52.199 lot of times and kind of looking ahead at the 0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:54.320 same time, and so I thought, man, what can I 0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:56.440 do where I'm looking back at something that'd be kind 0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.600 of cool? And I thought, you know what, It's well, 0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:01.480 I'm in charge of the show, So I thought, you 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:03.320 know what, I know what I'll do. 0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:05.959 This isn't really an ultimate eleven. 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:08.720 I just felt like, you know what, the season in 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.119 which the Texas one ANFC south of the second straight 0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:12.760 year under Damiko Ryans. 0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:15.800 I figured there were a lot of There were a 0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:16.039 lot of. 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.800 Really good moments in a lot of them, some of 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.840 my favorite moments. Now, some of these are not always 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:25.480 the best play, and some of these might end up 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:29.119 being some of my favorite plays in a loss. There 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.319 have been some close losses in which there were plays 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.400 in that game where I was like, oh, yeah, that's 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:35.680 one of my favorite plays of the year. For example, 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:42.600 here's one we'll start right here. My ultimate plays of 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:43.000 the year. 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:47.039 Well, let's put this way. My favorite plays of the 0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:52.440 year starts against Detroit. On the very first drive. 0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:57.040 Of the game, Jalen Petree jumped up, tipped the Jared 0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:01.040 Golf pass and it fell into the waiting arm of 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:05.200 Jimmy Ward. An interception on the first drive against Jered Goff, 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:08.720 who had been mega hot going into this game and 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.160 has been mega hot ever since. 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:15.400 But the Texans picked him off two, three, four, five 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:19.760 times in this game. That's one of my favorites. 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:24.560 It'll be second down and eleven, next snap, thirteen to 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:27.079 fifteen to go, first quarter, opening drive of the game. 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:29.960 Lions have it driving toward the north end zone. Second 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.160 and eleven from the Detroit forty one yard line. Gibbs 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:35.639 in the backfield golf and the guy to your receivers 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:36.200 wife's side. 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:36.440 Right. 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.680 Here's the snap to GoF looking firing tipped in the 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:43.640 air and intercepted. Texans having at the thirty five yard. 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:47.040 Line of Detroit. Jimmy Ward off the Kram with the pick. 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:53.400 Welcome back, Jimmy Ward Petree with the tip they work 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:58.920 on it daily, and Jimmy Ward with a scoop in 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:02.680 the interception that Texans are set up in great field 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:07.000 position to operate their first offensive series. 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:10.760 Here Goff's first interception since Week three. 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:12.840 What a way to open the game. 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:15.600 So that's what we're doing. We're doing my favorites. And 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:17.920 it can range from plays that happened and loss. It 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:23.120 can range to end of game fuel goals like this 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:26.840 one against the Buffalo Bills. What an afternoon that was 0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:30.359 against the Buffalo Bills. Playing the Bills here new kick, 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:32.680 A little surprised it happened that way, but it did. 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:35.200 Game in which the Texans had a big lead, had 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:37.160 a twenty eight to three lead, I believe it was, 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:42.640 but the Bills fought back and tied the game at twenty. 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:46.400 But after the Texans got stopped. 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.680 The Bills an opportunity, but they were backed up deep 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:49.760 in their own territory. 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:51.040 A three and out. 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.040 Kamari Laster knocked down one pass, Will Anderson had packed 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:55.680 it another and another one was knocked down. 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.960 The Bills had to punt. They punted, Robert Woods got up. 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:02.160 Then CJ. 0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:06.040 Stroud hit Darya goombuwalle boom bang a timeout. But you're 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:10.040 fifty nine yards away. Fifty nine yards from win over 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:11.800 one of the best teams in the league early in 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:12.320 the season. 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:14.040 This is one of my favorites. 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:17.560 Kymie Fairburan beats the Bills on the final play of 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:17.960 the game. 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.440 I mean, there's not a butt in a seat in 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:23.200 this stadium. 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:25.840 Fifty nine yard a tenth for the win. 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:30.919 Weeks with the snap, Tommy Townsend with the hold, and 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:35.040 Katy Fairbairn with a chance to give the Texans the victory. 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:39.760 Here's the snap by Weeks the spot. Here's the kick 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:43.919 by fair Baron has the distance and it's good. Fairbar 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:48.799 wins it at the buzzer. The Texans beat the Bills 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:56.080 fifty nine yards for the dub on each town Day 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.120 twenty three to twenty. 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.279 It wasn't the prettiest, but it might have been good. 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:09.279 From seventy he hit it and it wasn't high. It 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:12.000 just was long and accurate. 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:19.040 The operation ran smoothly fair Baron drove it through the 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:23.920 uprights to give the Texans the victory. 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:26.040 Four and one out of a. 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:32.560 Year, beating Buffalo and sending a message in the AFC. 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.720 That was a fun afternoon against the Buffalo Bills. 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:41.760 I don't know, though, if any win in any season 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:48.080 can be as sweet as beating the Dallas Cowboys. I mean, 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:53.920 beating the Cowboys's fantastic. But it never happened up in Arlington. 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.920 But the Texans defense was on one that night. In fact, 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.040 they had so many plays in this particular game. 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.880 One you might hear a little bit later, but one. 0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:09.400 Of my favorite moments in this game was a three 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:14.400 sack sequence. Tim Settled, daneil Hunter and Denico Autry sacking 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:21.200 Cooper Rush in Arlington at Jerry World, Dallas. 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:22.000 Right up to the. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:26.920 Line, two receivers to the left side, Lamb in the slot, 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:30.440 Cooper looking that way, but here comes far big sack 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:36.440 by Tim Settle inside the five yard line. Settle does 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:40.520 the damage. Third and seven from the Dallas forty nine 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:42.800 yard line. Cooper Rush and the gun Dawdle back in 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:46.000 the game to his left. Three receivers wifside right. Rush 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:49.520 takes the snap. Here's pressure daneil Hunter with another sack 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.440 back at the forty yard line, his second of the night. 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.200 It's fourth down at sixteen from the. 0:06:56.200 --> 0:07:00.119 Dallas forty one, empty backfield for Cooper Rush. 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:00.960 Here's the snap. 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:05.520 Here's the rush by the Texans. Ball comes out, Rush 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:10.679 has it still sacked. Big pressure coming through for Denico 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.120 Autrey getting there first, and the Texans. 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:16.000 Pounce on fourth down. 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:20.480 They get the turnover on downs, the pass rush paying 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:21.640 off big tonight. 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.680 Now, one other place the Texans won for the very 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:28.440 first time was in New England. 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:31.960 And this play is. 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:35.000 One of the more physically impressive plays that I think 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.200 happened all year, and it doesn't really get talked about. 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.160 It's one of my favorites because it's one of my 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.240 favorite guys on this team, and that's Eric Murray. 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:44.960 Eric Murray came here during the bleep. You know what 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:47.800 I'm talking about. It was tough coming here. 0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:50.920 In twenty twenty, Texans has just won the AFC South 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.360 two years in a Row comes here in twenty twenty, 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:54.520 sounds a big contract. 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:56.240 Everybody's expecting huge things. 0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:59.560 Dont always go exactly the way that everybody thought it 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.280 was going to. So Eric Murray took a lot of 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:03.559 heat and I always loved there because he always stood 0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:05.880 up to it. He always came in this studio. He 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.280 talked about playing for this team and he has been 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:11.760 through it. He's one of very few guys that have 0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:14.160 been through it for this team. But he has well. 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:17.600 Against New England. Will Anderson was on one that day. 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:22.320 Willy Anderson tipped at Drake May pass. Eric Murray saw it, 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:26.360 but he was shielded by a tight end from the Patriots. 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:28.720 Actually was trying to block him, so I think it 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:31.720 was Austin Hooper. So Hooper's blocking him and Murray sees 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:33.760 the ball and he's like, I gotta get this thing. 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.160 Reached out with one handcut and snatched it, pulled it into 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:38.360 his body and came up with one of four turnovers 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:39.200 against the Patriots. 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:40.880 It's one of my favorite plays of the year. 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:45.040 First down Patriots at their twenty two one back Gibson, 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:47.720 here's May and the gun floats the ball up side. 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:52.560 It's tipped in Eric centercepted let Texans have it at the. 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:56.760 Twenty six yard lines. Who came down with it off 0:08:56.840 --> 0:09:04.480 the deflection Eric Murray. Liberation ensues and the tip ball 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:05.360 and a pick. 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:06.720 Now. 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.079 I love when guys go through adversity and come out 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.680 the other side successful. And the guy that had some 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:16.760 adversity hit him in twenty twenty three was Damian Pierce. 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:19.959 And then Joe Mixon comes here to Houston. Everybody's like, Okay, 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.280 what is what's Damien gonna do this year? You know, 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.800 how is he gonna fit in all this kind of stuff? Well, 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:26.960 he showed in New England and he's ready to fit 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.400 in extremely well. I wish I could play you, because 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:33.439 I don't think I have it anymore. My reaction. Our 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:36.720 engineer on the road, Aaron Rabel, records me throughout the 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:40.080 game in case I have a reaction like the one 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:43.120 I had when Damian Pierce won fifty four yards for 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:44.800 a touchdown against the Patriots. 0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.920 First down Texans at the Houston forty six o'clock at 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.559 eight minutes to go, thirteen point lead. Here's a tossed 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.800 up Piers running right Pierce across the fifty Piers prices 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:56.440 up tack on forty five forty right sideline the thirty 0:09:56.559 --> 0:10:01.920 twenty fifteen ten five rock and roll. He's got the touchdown. 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:04.520 Damian peers to the house. 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:07.640 That was fun. That was a lot of fun. 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:11.760 That Patriots win came a week after the Texans had 0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:15.800 beaten Jacksonville at home, and for a long time in 0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:19.280 that Jacksonville game, boy, it did not feel like it 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:24.120 was going to happen. But Daria Goombalwalles showed up on 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.120 that day with two of my favorite plays because ad 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:30.640 involves dary Be. He's one of my favorite players I've 0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:32.040 ever had in this organization. 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:34.160 And c or three. 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:36.520 These were huge plays. 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:40.600 The first a huge third down catch for thirty one 0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:42.760 yards to keep a scoring drive alive. 0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:46.320 Third down at eighteen from the Houston thirty three yard line. 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.040 CJ in the gun, one back, Daria gon Bwana. 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:49.640 How you pick this up? 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:53.120 Here's the snap, here's CJ stepping up, and now he's 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:54.960 got a duff the Tadari but he's got somewhere in 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:58.959 forty five punting inside fifteen forty five up Jacksonville to 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.280 forty of down inside thirty five yards line. Dor tunt 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:06.120 it again, big play into Jack's territory to the thirty six. 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:09.360 But Daria saved his best for last when CJ. 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:12.400 Stodd hit him with a one yard touchdown to give 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:16.600 the Texans a win over Jacksonville in Week four at home, 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:18.839 Daria Goomblewalle to the. 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:25.319 Rescue, second in goal, digs to the right side. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:27.079 You gotta have. 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:32.000 OFFSETI CJ rolls after the right first to the end zone. 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:39.280 HiT's Dorey. As the Texans score, they lead. CJ. Stroud 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:43.560 tatari a who's had a huge game. What's the Texans 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:44.079 on top? 0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:52.120 But maybe the favorite Darya Goombwalle play of twenty twenty four, 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:56.480 Maybe it's upcoming. Who knows, but I think it's probably 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:59.360 right here. I love those plays against Jacksonville. He was 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.240 named one of the Offensive Players of the game for 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.040 that win in Week four. But maybe the play peep 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:07.199 board can remember the most happened against the Miami Dolphins 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.200 December fifteenth, twenty twenty four. I remember that day like 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:12.719 the back of my hand. It is my anniversary and 0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:16.240 on my twenty ninth year marriage with my wonderful wife 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:20.719 Page Harris, Daria Goombwalle took off running down the right 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:23.240 side with a fake punt and it's also one of 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:24.320 my favorite plays of the. 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:29.319 Year field rob Otherwise he's running to the end. So 0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:32.920 cats that on the run and it's deep in their 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:36.839 territory and it's a fake and running around the right 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:42.400 side darre forty thirty five thirty twenty fifteen and ripped 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:42.959 out at the ten. 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:46.559 The ball comes out. Oh no, he may be down. 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:47.319 He was down. 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:49.960 I think the Dolphins say they have it. There's a 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:50.640 big straw. 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.360 I don't know now looking at the replay team after 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:54.960 renew a runner was. 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:55.959 Down by contact. 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.240 Who's way down? 0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:02.440 Okay, It's been a long season, there's no doubt about that. 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:05.400 It started Week one up in Indianapolis on the road 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:09.040 where it had happened in Week eighteen, twenty twenty three. 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:12.160 The Colts were gonna get revenge all this kind of stuff. Well, 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.520 the Colts trailed the Texans twenty nine to twenty seven. 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.640 When the Texas got the ball looking to round the clock, 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:21.680 but they needed a first down and looking at third 0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:26.760 and eleven, it didn't look good until one of my favorite, 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:30.360 one of my favorite throws and catches of the season 0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:32.880 from all the way back in Week one took place 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:37.520 right Here CJ. Stroud found Nico Collins on the sideline 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:41.520 for a massive catch and another CJ to Nico. 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:43.439 Knife in the heart of the Colts. 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:48.440 Third down and eleven from the Houston twenty nine yard line. 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:49.040 CJ. 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:53.720 Stroud shotgun darre to his right, Dell in motion to 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:56.760 the left, crowd deafening. 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:57.720 Here's the snap. 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:02.800 CJ looking firing right sideline and Nico Collins. 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:03.080 With the catch. 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:05.640 He gets the feet down for a first down at 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:06.360 the forty one. 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:11.480 You got another bad spot mark. The spot is tricky. 0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:14.000 It's right at the forty. You gotta look at this, 0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:17.720 which is exactly where they needed to get to, and 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:19.560 there may be they may measure this. 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:21.680 They didn't even have to Dre. 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:24.280 They went up and reviewed it and found that he 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:26.880 had gotten well beyond the sticks. 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:30.440 And that got the Texans to one in zher on 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:32.760 the season and. 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:36.640 They would stay hot the next week when they took 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:41.000 on the Chicago Bears, and it was a defensive performance. 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:45.040 Jalen Peatree dropping hit sticks on everybody. 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:48.960 First down from the Chicago thirty bunch formation right, Caleb 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:50.920 Williams and the gun with one back swift. 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:54.880 Here's the snap.

Man, is he having 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:13.680 a good year? 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.480 That's a Stafford stick. 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:20.000 It was also in that game where one Derek Stingley 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:26.680 Junior came up with one of his five interceptions on 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:27.840 the season. 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.920 Third down of sixteen from the Bears forty Williams and 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.400 the Guns back to pass fires. 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:36.240 Left sideline and intercept it. 0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:40.320 Stingley's got it the Texans with the takeaway. 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:42.920 Derek Stinglee Junior, He's at it again. 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:48.240 Oh, the interceptions didn't stop at all for Derek Stingley Junior. 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.920 He put on an absolute show in week fifteen against 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:57.600 Miami with not one, but two brilliant fourth quarter interceptions. 0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:01.480 Oh these two I could see. I just I visualize 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:04.400 him right now. Sting with two third. 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:06.800 Down and five at the Houston twenty Tua in the gun. 0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:08.040 Here's the snap to. 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:12.520 A quick fire right side and intercepted by Stanley. He's 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.280 got it across the fifteen and wrestled at a bounds 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:18.600 by Hill Derek Stingley Junior the ied team. 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:20.240 He turns back Miami. 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:25.240 What a takeaway for the Texans. They've got the rocket 0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:27.480 at twenty to twelve lead with ten twenty six to go. 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.040 In the fourth from the Dolphin twenty three first and 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:35.320 tent Tua takes the snap. Tua with pressure, throwing Tamfield 0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:41.120 to his right and intercepted Stanley again. That's gonna do it. 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:45.840 The Texans are gonna beat Miami. Stingley's second pick seals 0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:49.000 took to youal and Houston will get its ninth win. 0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:54.080 Teams are going to stop throwing to Stingley side. 0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:58.800 He was stepped for step and arguably the fastest player 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:04.520 in the NFL and came up with yet another interception. 0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:07.320 Y'all know as well as I do. Beat Miami's great 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:11.040 its awesome. Beating Dallas is that much better. And sting 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:13.160 had a big interception in that game as well. 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.800 Third and eight at the Houston forty one rush shotgun. 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:19.640 Here's the snap rush looking throwing the left side. It's 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:22.760 piked off. Here's Derek Stingley Junior taking it to his 0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:25.240 right to the sideline, turning it upfield and turning it 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:27.680 out of bounds, the sting pick. 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:33.119 That was the night when national media, national people really 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:37.280 started paying attention to Derek Stingley, and they should have 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.560 been all along. But you know, look, sauce has been 0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:44.919 pretty good. But Derek Stingley was absolutely phenomenal, phenomenal in 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:50.840 this season, so so very good. So has Nico Collins. Now, 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.679 this play is both one of my favorites and one 0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:57.080 of my least favorites of the year, Like it's up 0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:00.280 there one of my most favorite because it's one of 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:01.560 my favorite things in football. 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:02.720 For a long time, I. 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.800 Used to love big hits, big smashes, your collisions and 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:06.400 that kind of thing. 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:07.520 I used to love those I love. 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:10.119 I still love physical play, but I've gotten to wear 0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:14.280 the long ball, the bomb. Watching CJ link up with 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:17.160 Nico or whomever deep I love it so Week eighteen, 0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:20.080 that throw the Colt against the Colts, I could watch 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.480 it all day, just as I could watch this one 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:26.520 against Buffalo. Needing a play to open things up, CJ 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:30.560 found Nico sixty seven yards down the field. We all 0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:35.120 rejoiced until we saw Nico Poole's hamstring. But this play, 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:37.520 just on its own, one of my favors of the year. 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.119 First down Texans to begin this possession at the Houston 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.480 thirty three scrab fits the toss, he has time in 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.800 the pocket, He's gonna gun it long and Nico Collins 0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:50.920 is there at the fifteen ten five fucking roll touchdown, 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:52.000 Eah Town. 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:57.800 Loved bomb from Stroud to Collins. 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:01.280 I know someone would have a chance to come up 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:03.919 with one. I thought it would be Tank Dale. It's not. 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:10.480 It's mister consistency, mister leading the NFL and receiving yards 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:12.040 neat Gold College. 0:19:14.800 --> 0:19:18.359 What a beautiful play as he faked the toss to 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:21.560 his left and had enough time to get the ball 0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:24.920 off to As you said, Dre, the NFL's leader in 0:19:25.000 --> 0:19:27.320 receiving yards and that number is not going to be 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:28.399 hurting after today. 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:32.320 Leads by over one hundred coming into the day's action. 0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:36.199 Dude has been absolutely phenomenal in twenty twenty four, just 0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:39.920 like he was in twenty twenty three. His biggest night 0:19:40.520 --> 0:19:44.560 was probably against the Chicago Bears. One of my favorite 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:46.760 moments of the entire season. So right at the end 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:49.639 of the first quarter against the Bears, Tyreek Stevenson, who 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:51.880 we learned doesn't. 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:53.040 Do real well. Hill Mary's. 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:56.880 But he's also kind of this hot blooded, vowel otle 0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:00.879 kind of guy. Well, he took his finger and he 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:05.360 basically smushed Nico Collins right in the face. Well, Nico's 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:08.040 luck would have it, responded, got a fifteen yard penalty. 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:09.359 It was right at the end of the first quarter. 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.239 And I'll never forget Texas were down in the red 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:14.240 zone and Nico got that penalty. 0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:14.800 And I could just. 0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:18.359 See Nico stewing like he couldn't believe that Tyreek Stevenson 0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:19.200 had gotten to him. 0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:20.199 Couldn't believe it. 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:24.520 So it's first in twenty five, the very first play 0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:27.320 of the second quarter, CJ threw a diamond and Eico 0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:30.920 and Nico just started running over everybody in the Chicago 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:33.720 secondary and he made Jalen Johnson pay for one to 0:20:33.760 --> 0:20:35.119 tackle in the en zone. This is one of my 0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.119 favorite plays all year long. Right here, CJ to Nico 0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:39.720 against the Bears in Week two. 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:42.520 Stratama gun on second and twenty four. 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:47.200 Here's the snap CJ looking, CJ firing downfield, hits Nico 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:51.080 ten five to the end zone, touchdown. 0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:54.960 Houston a flag on the play. 0:20:55.280 --> 0:21:01.560 That's weight room right there, baby. 0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:02.400 What let's see what this penalty is effort. 0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:04.280 What an effort? After the catch? 0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:10.480 All right? Nico Collins his way in. 0:21:15.000 --> 0:21:18.680 The first TD of the home portion of the season, 0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:24.320 Nico Collins brought about the fifteen yard in fraction, said 0:21:24.600 --> 0:21:26.600 I got this and CJ fed. 0:21:26.440 --> 0:21:26.960 On the rock. 0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:29.920 That's that's how you make up for it, coach. I'll 0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:33.000 be right back, yep, my apologies. Let me go take 0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:33.679 care of something. 0:21:34.160 --> 0:21:36.479 A little later in that game, as the Texas were 0:21:36.480 --> 0:21:38.280
