description

Matched up against a team that has won back-to-back Super Bowls, Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud knew he'd have to leave it all on the field in this Divisional Round matchup, and that meant making plays however he could, be it with his arm or his legs. On this critical third down play, it was his legs that wound up being his tool of choice, as he scrambled away from pressure before speeding down the field with a 28-yard gain, finishing the run with power to add a few extra yards after contact. Stroud would go on to tally 42 yards on the ground in this one, while throwing for 245 yards and playing turnover-free football, but Houston would wind up falling to the Chiefs, 23-14, on Jan. 18, 2025.
