description

Trailing by seven points fairly late in the third quarter, the Texans found themselves deep in the red zone and ready to strike. Enter Joe Mixon, who followed up a great first season in Houston with a strong performance in the postseason. Taking this handoff right up the gut, Mixon bounced to the right and burst through the hole, taking it 12 yards to the end zone for the score, cutting the deficit to one point. Mixon finished with 88 yards on the ground and 12 more on two catches to tally 100 yards of total offense on the day, but the Texans would fall in this one, 23-14, on Jan. 18, 2025.
