Noah - No Chris Jones is a huge negative for the Kansas City Chiefs. This defense is trying to put as much pressure on Deshaun Watson as possible and that just became a lot harder without their top defensive lineman.
Travis Kelce is active but doesn't look good from watching him warm up. He has tightness in his knee and it's showing. It can't if he's going to make an impact, today.
First Quarter
Texans 21 | Chiefs 0
Noah - Who would've thought this was a Houston takeover? No one, and you shouldn't. Two big special teams plays is not Patrick Mahomes fault, and until they stop Mahomes this game is still fully in tact.
Second Quarter
Texans 24 | Chiefs 28
Noah - The Texans are up 17 points and playing like they're trying to come from behind.
Noah - What'd I say? Patrick Mahomes is the difference maker. Deshaun Watson needs to reciprocate his opponent and put his team back in this.
Third Quarter
Texans 31 | Chiefs 41
Noah - It's not about stopping the Chiefs at this point, if the Texans want to win they need to outscore them. Time to put points on the board.
.@PatrickMahomes joins Doug Williams (Super Bowl XXII) as the only players in postseason history with 4 passing TD in a single quarter. #ChiefsKingdom | @Chiefs

Noah - 41 unanswered points.
Noah - Watson needs to keep this going. It's about taking advantage of every opportunity. This game isn't out of check if the offense can find some way to keep up.
Fourth Quarter
Texans 31 | 51
Noah - If you can't stop Patrick Mahomes you can't win. Period.
Noah - The over/under of this game was 51. Wow.
