Will fumbling the kickoff do it?

[Arky]

Pass to Kelce gets a yard or two.

Williams loses two yards. 3rd and goal coming up.

Pass to Kelce good for the TD. 6 yards.

Texans 24, Chiefs 21

6:31 left in the half.

If the Texans lose, BOB’s pussy ass decision to kick the field goal on 4th and a foot will be seen as the key decision.

[Arky]

Watson keeps for a 1st down at the Texan 44.

Hyde for 10.

........

Texans facing 3rd and 12.

With a better spot we might go there. It should have been 4th and a foot but they moved it back to a full yard. Either way we should have gone. We were never winning this game on defense.

[Arky]

Another PI on L Johnson gives up big yardage.

Pass to Hill gets another big gain.

Mahomes runs for 21.

2 minute warning (1:55 actual).

Ball at the Texan 34.

[Arky]

Pass to Kelce gets a 1st down at the Texan 19.

Mahomes scrambles for 14, 1st down and goal to go. 58 seconds left in the half.

Pass to Williams off the mark, inc.

Dropped pass by Robinson. 3rd and goal coming up.

Pass to Kelce gets the TD but play will be under review - Mahomes may have crossed the LOS......

Play stands as called.

Chiefs 28, Texans 24

44 seconds left in the half.

[Arky]

Watson connects on a deep ball to Hop at the Chief's 39.

Spike. 19 seconds left in the half.

Watson flushed and throws it away. 11 seconds left.

Watson flushed and runs out of bounds at the 33.

Fairbairn on for a 51-yarder.

Kick is no good.

Chiefs 28, Texans 24

Halftime.

[barrett]

Hopkins is being mugged. On the long catch he had he gets held for 20 yards down the seam. Brutal. He’s getting killed way worse than Kelce but can’t buy a call.

[HPF Bob]

Somewhere Warren Moon is like "WOOOHOOO! We can go out in public again!"

[chuck]

It is mind boggling how fking stupid BOB is. His special teams gifts him a huge lead and he can’t fk it up fast enough. Incredible.

Total yards: Texans 237, Chiefs 174

Nah, it was his decision to fake punt deep in his own territory.

Hehe. When it got up to 24-0, were you thinking what I was thinking?

Reminds me of Lamar going for it on 4th and 1 early in last night's game and getting stuffed. It was unneccesary and becomes a huge momentum swing if you fail. In the first half, just take what you're given and don't give the opposition short fields to work with.

If they score a td instead of a fg on that drive then they don’t get tempted to do stupid shit like fake punt on their own 35.

[Arky]

It's virtually a new game, a restart. Win the 2nd half and you win the game....

It crossed my mind. I'm hoping this becomes more like the SD-MIA OT thriller where Miami came back from 24-0 to tie it at halftime.

If this stays close, I have confidence Watson can pull it out at the end.
