    Taiwan Jones. Just let that sink in.

    Out of nowhere this guy catches a ball and is running Down the field in overtime.

    I’m like. Really? Taiwan Jones?

    Dude came through when needed.

    Kind of funny seeing Bill fans call this game a screwjob because of that touchdown called a touchback.

    I get it, I do, he should have kneeled...but it was super clear he was giving himself up and the rules do not state you have specifically kneel to give yourself up AND they do have a bit of leeway on when a player is giving himself up. We saw them call Watson down earlier in the year when he was still running around lol.

    I think it's clear he gave himself up, it is common sense. It was nice of the refs to sort of just realize it didn't have to be to the letter of the law kind of thing there...unlike the NBA ref that was accidentally touched by a player and then tossed the player out of the game.

    Id probably be mad at this win cause I dont think we get passed the next round and it would drop our draft positioning even further but Im okay with it since we aint got no first round. Bob, you magnificent b*stard.

    Hopefully Fuller will be back next week and Watt will still be alright and we'll become a juggernaut.


    Hopefully against the Chiefs.

    Prior to last week, he had not touched the ball all year.

    I thought Taiwan Jones actually played good in last week's meaningless game vs Titans.

    90% of the Texans fan probaly don't know Taiwan Jones. The Play Of The Year for the Texans was caught by a 31 year old end of the line WR. Whoever put him in deserves a Texans logo because he was really fast, like Westbrook fast on that play.

    PS: Wikipedia updated the bio for Jones as the reception that setup the game-winning FG.

    » Deshaun Watson is the third quarterback in the Super Bowl era with a pass touchdown, a rush TD, no giveaways and a fourth-quarter comeback in a playoff game. He joins Hall of Famer Ken Stabler in the 1976 Divisional Round and Hall of Famer Bart Starr in "The Ice Bowl" in 1967 as the only players to do so.

    » The Bills led 16-0 before the Texans got their first score in the third quarter, but the Texans were able to pull out a 22-19 win in overtime. With Bill O'Brien as head coach, Houston was previously 0-22 when trailing by at least 16 points in a game, including postseason.

    » J.J. Watt returned to action 69 days after tearing his pectoral muscle in Week 8. Watt had 1.0 sack, marking his first postseason game with a full sack since the Texans' 2012 win over the Bengals in the Wild Card Round (Watt has played in four playoff games since then, including Saturday's matchup). Watt also had two quarterback hits and one tackle for loss in the Texans' win.

    » Deshaun Watson is the third quarterback age-24 or younger to record a comeback of at least 16 points in a postseason game since at least 2000. He joins Andrew Luck in a 2013 AFC Wild Card Game and Marcus Mariota in a 2017 AFC Wild Card Game as the only such players to do so. Both Luck and Mariota did so against the Chiefs.

    » How impressive was Josh Allen's first career playoff drive? His 42-yard run was the longest rushing play of the Bills' 2019 season (including postseason) and his 16-yard TD reception on a pass from wide receiver John Brown was the longest playoff receiving TD by a quarterback in the Super Bowl era. The previous longest playoff receiving TD by a quarterback was Marcus Mariota's 6-yard pass to himself in a 2017 AFC Wild Card Game.

    » The Bills-Texans matchup marked the first playoff game in the Super Bowl in which two quarterbacks had at least 50 rush yards each. Deshaun Watson had 55 rush yards in the Texans' win and Josh Allen had 92. Both quarterbacks led their respective teams in rushing.

    » John Brown threw a 16-yard pass TD to Josh Allen on the first drive of the Bills' loss to the Texans. He also found Devin Singletary for a 28-yard pass TD in the Bills' Week 13 win over the Cowboys. Brown is the third wide receiver since 2010 with at least two pass TDs in a season (including playoffs). He joined Antwaan Randle El (two in 2010) and Odell Beckham Jr. (two in 2018) as the only players to do so.

    » Josh Allen is the second quarterback since 1975 with at least a 15-yard reception and at least a 15-yard rush in a playoff game. The other? Hall of Famer John Elway in Super Bowl XXII.

    I would be doing the same in their place. If the refs had flipped it the other way, I wouldn't have been mad at them, I'd have been mad as hell at DeAndre Carter.

    Kudos to Pancakes for the reverses jinks.

    This was as much of a Texans playoff game as we’ve to start but watching the team spark off of JJ’s sack was nice to see. The Bills D was all that it was made out to be but what can you say about DW4. Incredible play to win it.

    Watching a replay, Jones was the receiver who slipped.

    Jeff Saturday also commented about our coaching incompetence @2:30
