Denver Broncos vs Houston Texans Game Highlights | 2025 NFL Season Week 9

THEY’RE GOING TO PLAY THIS VERY,
VERY SNUG. WE’LL HAVE TO SEE HOW THAT IS
IMPACTED. >> Kevin: 3rd AND 8.
STROUD FIRES, COMPLETE. FIRST DOWN, THAT’S NICO COLLINS,
BACK IN THE LINEUP. AND C.J. STROUD, WHEN WE TALKED
WITH HIM THIS WEEK, THERE IS SAFETIES AND CORNERS, AS WELL.
>> Kevin: THEY CONVERTED ON 3rd AND 8 A MOMENT AGO.
CAN THEY DO IT AGAIN? SHOWING PRESSURE.
STROUD HIT AS HE THROWS TOWARD THE SIDELINE.
IT’S CAUGHT, CHRISTIAN KIRK’S FIRST GRAB SINCE HIS RETURN!
SO ON TWO LONG THIRD DOWNS, THEY LINE IT UP.
OFFENSE STAYS OUT THERE. STROUD, ON THE ROLL, TO THE
SIDELINE, AND IT’S CAUGHT BY CHRISTIAN KIRK, AND IT’S A FIRST
DOWN. >> Kevin: 13th PLAY OF THIS
OPENING DRIVE. THEY HAD A 16-PLAY OPENING DRIVE
LAST WEEKEND THAT RESULTED IN THREE.
STROUD, HE’S IN TROUBLE. AND THEY GOT HIM!
ZACH ALLEN FINALLY ABLE TO GET TO C.J. STROUD.
37 SACKS THIS YEAR FOR THE DENVER BRONCOS AND A LOSS OF
NINE! THE MIDDLE, IT WAS CONSIDERED A
SACK, DESPITE NO GAIN ON THE PLAY.
FIELD GOAL TRY OF 51 FOR FAIRBAIRN AND IT IS NO GOOD.
HE MISSED IT WIDE TO THE RIGHT. AND THE TEXANS COME UP EMPTY ON
THE FIELD GOAL. FAIRBAIRN’S ONLY MISSES THIS
SEASON HAVE BEEN FROM BEYOND 50 YARDS.
HE’S NOW 5 OF 8 FROM 50 PLUS. STILL SCORELESS IN HOUSTON. WIN.
2nd AND 10. AND THE FIRST CARRY FOR DOBBINS.
AS MUCH AS YOU TALK ABOUT THIS DEFENSE AND BO NIX, J.K. DOBBINS
HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING FOR THIS HIS 20th SEASON, SIGNED THIS
WEEK, ELEVATED FROM THE PRACTICE SQUAD, AND THE 41-YEAR-OLD IN
THERE FOR THE FIRST TIME. DOBBINS TO THE EDGE, HE HAS A
FIRST DOWN AND OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE HOUSTON 35.
CHASED OUT BY DEREK STINGILY. SNAP.
>> Kevin: 3rd AND 8. SEE IF THE TEXANS CAN GET THE
PASS RUSH GOING. NIX STEPS UP IN THE POCKET,
THROWS IT SHORT AND INCOMPLETE. WAS LOOKING FOR TYLER BADAY. OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP THE DRIVE
ALIVE. >> Kevin: HERE’S WIL LUTZ, WAS
HITTING FROM 62 THIS DIRECTION IN PREGAME, AND IT’S BLOCKED!
THE KICK IS BLOCKED AND IT’S AUTRY WITH HIS 14th CAREER
BLOCKED KICK! THROW A PUNT IN, HE’S THE BLOCK
SPECIALIST! AND AUTRY DOES IT AGAIN.
A COUPLE OF GOOD DRIVES END UP IN A COUPLE OF MISSED FIELD
GOALS. ONE MISS, ONE BLOCK.
NO SCORE IN HOUSTON. AND DENICO AUTRY IS ABLE TO GET
SKINNY, SLIDE THROUGH AND GET THAT BLOCK.
>> Kevin: STROUD HITS HIS MAN IN STRIDE.
DALTON SCHULTZ ON THE RUN. INSIDE THE 15 OF DENVER AND DOWN
AT THE 13! BRANDON JONES AND ALEX SINGLETON
FINALLY ABLE TO BRING HIM DOWN FIRST AND GOAL.
BRYANT, THE TIGHT END IN MOTION. THE HAND IS TO CHUBB.
HE TRIED TO GO AIRBORNE. BEFORE HE COULD GET LIFT OFF, HE
WAS YANKED BACK DOWN. THE LINE.
>> Kevin: BIG EARLY PLAY IN THIS GAME.
4th AND GOAL, AND WE HAVE A WHISTLE AND FLAGS, AND A FALSE
START AGAINST HOUSTON. AND THE FIELD GOAL UNIT COMING
ON FOR HOUSTON. >> Daryl: EVEN AT HOME, WE
TALKED ABOUT THE CROWD NOISE IN SEATTLE AND HOW THAT IMPACTED
THE OFFENSIVE LINE WITH THE COMMUNICATION AND THE SNAP
COUNT. >> Kevin: 23-YARD TRY FOR
FAIRBAIRN. AND THE KICK THIS TIME IS GOOD.
HIS 20th STRAIGHT MADE FIELD GOAL INSIDE OF 50, AND IT GIVES
THE TEXANS A 3-0 LEAD WITH FOUR TEXANS IN THESE SITUATIONS LOVE
TO GET PRESSURE WITH JUST FOUR. THEY RUSH FOUR HERE, AND THE
SCREEN IS BATTED DOWN BY HUNTER. IT’S INCOMPLETE.
>> Daryl: THAT PASS RUSH IS UP.
>> Kevin: THEY’VE GONE WITH THAT ROTATION AT LEFT GUARD.
FOUR-MAN PRESSURE FROM DENVER. STROUD BREAKS TO CONTAIN.
UP THE MIDDLE AND HE GETS POPPED!
KRIS ABRAMS-DRAINE, AND HERE COMES THE FLAG.
C.J. STROUD GOT HAMMERED TO THE THAT PUNT, AND PICKS UP NINE.
NOW, MIKE PERERA IS WITH US FROM LOS ANGELES.
YOU AGREE WITH THEM, CORRECT? >> ABSOLUTELY.
IT WAS A LATE SLIDE, THE DEFENDER WAS ALREADY COMMITTED.
NOW, IT STILL WOULD BE A FOUL IF IT WAS CONTACT TO THE HEAD OR
NECK AREA, BUT THERE WASN’T. OUR PRODUCER GAVE US A GREAT
SHOT AND THEY COULD SEE THAT. SO THAT ALLOWS THEM TO USE
REPLAY TO PICK UP A PLAY. >> Kevin: IT LOOKED TO ME LIKE
THE RIGHT CALL. CHALLENGING ALL AFTERNOON.
>> Kevin: 2nd AND 7 WITH FRANKLIN IN MOTION.
NIX BACKS THAT PRESSURE FROM HUNTER, DOWN THE SIDELINE AND
IT’S INTERCEPTED. BULLOCK WITH THE PICK FOR
HOUSTON! HARD TO COME OFF THE BENCH
AGAINST A VERY AGGRESSIVE DEFENSE.
>> Kevin: PRESSURE COMING. MILLS DOWN THE SIDELINE.
DROPPING IT IS COLLINS. WHEN IN DOUBT, FIND YOUR NUMBER
ONE, AND THEY FIND NUMBER 12 FOR STROUD.
SOME RUNNING ROOM, AND DOWN HE GOES AT THE 16 YARD LINE.
DRE GREENLAW WITH THE TACKLE. THEY HAVE SOME REALLY GOOD
INTERIOR PLAYERS. >> Kevin: 2nd AND 7.
MILLS TO THE AIR, FINDS COLLINS INSIDE THE FIVE, LUNGING TO THE
GOAL LINE DOWN AT THE ONE! SIX POINTS IS SIX POINTS NO
MATTER HOW YOU GET IT. >> Kevin: HERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF
A FLIP ON THE SWEEP, COLLINS, HE SLIPS DOWN, BUT A NAG FLAG DOWN
THE EDGE AT 5. >> Kevin: SO THE TEXANS NOW BACK
UP. >> Daryl: BARRON ON THE OUTSIDE.
ESPECIALLY WHEN IT’S AT THE POINT OF THE ATTACK.
EVERYBODY’S EYES ARE ON THE 3rd AND GOAL.
MILLS, PRESSURE COMES. IN TROUBLE, DOWN HE GOES!
JONATHAN COOPER FOR THE SEVENTH TIME THIS SEASON WITH A SACK!
>> Daryl: YOU’VE GOT TWO AWAY.
>> Kevin: AND NOW A 41 YARD FIELD GOAL TRY, AND IT’S GOOD.
A 6-0 HOUSTON LEAD WITH 7:11 SIDELINES.
NIX, WITH PRESSURE. FINDS THE OPEN MAN, AND ACROSS
MIDFIELD, AND NUDGING THE BALL NEAR THE 49 OF HOUSTON.
A PICKUP OF 21, AND AN EXCELLENT IF YOU’RE A COLLEGE QUARTERBACK
AND YOU TAKE A LOT OF SACKS, YOU’RE GOING TO TAKE SACKS IN
THE NFL. >> Kevin: NIX TO THE SIDELINE.
THERE’S MICHAEL BANDY, UP OFF THE PRACTICE SQUAD AND OUT OF
BOUNDS WITH A FIRST DOWN AT THE 30 YARD LINE.
A PICKUP OF 16. BE ON THE GROUND VERY OFTEN IN
COVERAGE. >> Kevin: BACKSIDE PRESSURE FROM
HUNTER. DOWN THE SIDELINE, LOOKING FOR
THE PAY DIRT IS SUTTON. IT’S A TOUCHDOWN!
30-YARD CONNECTION AND THE SAFETY.
BUT IT’S NOT PLAYED REAL HARD WHY THE CORNER — THERE’S NO
SAFETY OVER THERE TO BAIL YOU OUT ON THE END.
IT’S A HECK OF A ROUTE BY FRANCISCO.
>> Kevin: MILLS ON 2nd AND 8. UP TO COLLINS WHO IS POPPED AND
BY BRANDON JONES, AND HERE COMES FLAGS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE
FIELD. THE DEFENSIVE END, WHICH IS NOT
AN EASY TASK. >> Kevin: ON THIRD DOWN, AND
THERE IS DALTON SHUTS AND A FIRST DOWN TO THE 29 YARD LINE.
RILEY MOSS ON THE TACKLE BUT THAT WILL MOVE THE CHAINS.
>> Daryl: ONE OF THE MOST THIRD DOWN FROM HERE.
MILLS, LOOKING, TIGHT WINDOW. FITS IT IN.
GOOD GRAB BY NICO COLLINS. BUT SHORT OF THE FIRST DOWN AT
THE 20. NOW YOU HAVE A LITTLE DECISION
TO MAKE. FAIRBAIRN.
2 FOR 3 TODAY. AND FAIRBAIRN SNEAKS THAT ONE
IN. IT IS GOOD, AND THE TEXANS
REGAIN THE LEAD NOW 9-7. ORLEANS IN THE FIRST ROUND.
3rd AND 16. NIX, A ROLL AWAY FROM THE HEAT.
LOOKING TO THROW ON THE RUN. HEAVING IT DOWNFIELD, AND THAT
BALL IS OFF THE FINGERTIPS OF KAMARI LASSITER, LOOKING FOR
TROY FRANKLIN. FIRST HALF.
3rd AND 10. >> Kevin: NICO COLLINS ON THE
SCREEN, GOING NOWHERE. KRIS ABRAMS-DRAINE WITH THE
TACKLE AND NOW A TIME-OUT, DENVER, WITH 46 SECONDS TO GO
UNTIL HALFTIME. TEXAS PUNTING IT AWAY ON AND 11.
BANDY, IT HIT HIM, BOUNCED OFF BANDY, RECOVERED BY HOUSTON AT
THE 30 YARD LINE! IT ENDED UP WITH JAYLIN SMITH
AFTER THE BANDY MUFF AND THE THAN WILL ANDERSON, IN A GOOD
WAY. MILLS, PRESSURE COMING UP THE
MIDDLE AND HE’S SACKED FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN THE HALF.
TILLMAN WITH HIS SECOND SACK OF THE YEAR.
AND NOW HOUSTON LIKELY JUST PLAY OF THIS FIRST HALF.
AND FAIRBAIRN’S KICK IS GOOD. >> Daryl: HE’S LIVEN ON THE
EDGE. >> Kevin: HE IS INDEED.
SNUGGED ONE UP, BUT ENOUGH TO WEIGHT AND WE’LL BE JUST FINE.
>> Kevin: BAD NEWS FOR TEXANS FANS.
AS DOBBINS TRYING TO GET IT GOING.
A GOOD RUN ON 1st AND 9. 3rd AND 8.
NIX, TO THE AIR ONCE MORE. STINGLEY AND SUTTON WERE TANGLED
UP. HOUSTON’S DEFENSE GETS THE STOP
AND THE PUNT TEAM COMING ON FOR DEEP MAN FOR HOUSTON AT THE 15.
THE PUNT, DRIVING NOEL BACK TO THE 8 YARD LINE.
AND NOEL LOOKING FOR THE EDGE. HE GOT A BLOCK FROM HIGGINS.
HIS FORMER CYCLONE TEAMMATE. TIPTOEING UP THE SIDELINE, AND
OUT OF BOUNDS. FINALLY TRACKS HIM DOWN, BUT WE
HAVE TALKED ABOUT THE BIG PLUS 47.
SO GREAT JOB BY JAYDEN HIGGINS. >> Kevin: THOSE CYCLONES COME
FROM A PRETTY GOOD BASKETBALL STATE
PROGRAM AT IOWA STATE. MILLS, IT’S CAUGHT.
ANOTHER CYCLONE, XAVIER HUTCHINSON WITH THE CATCH AND
OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE DENVER 24. DARE OGUNBOWALE IS THE RUNNING
BACK ON 3rd AND 9. MILLS OVER THE MIDDLE, DEFLECTED
OFF THE HAND OF DALTON SCHULTZ >> Kevin: 41 YARD TRY FOR
FAIRBAIRN, WHO IS 4 FOR 5 TODAY. GOOD SNAP AND HOLD, AND THIS
TIME FAIRBAIRN, LESS DRAMATIC WITH THAT FIELD GOAL.
RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE, AND IT’S OFFENSE.
>> Daryl: THERE’S JAYLIN LEN PI RIGHT HERE.
>> Kevin: DOWN AT THE 31, PITRE, YOU MENTIONED HIM.
HE WAS RIGHT ON TOP OF RJ STORY?”
>> Kevin: 3rd AND 2. MILLS, QUICK TOSS, AND SPIKED TO
THE TURF. FOURTH DOWN AND THE PUNT TEAM
MAKING THEIR WAY OUT THERE FOR HOUSTON.
>> Daryl: THEY’RE AGGRESSIVE IN >> Kevin: EXACTLY.
BUT A 3rd AND 7 NOW. THEY’LL BRING PRESSURE.
NIX THROWS. IT IS CAUGHT, AND A FIRST DOWN.
PAT BRYANT, THE ROOKIE FROM ILLINOIS.
WHAT A TIME FOR HIS FIRST CATCH. SIDELINES.
NIX, LOOKING, WITH TIME. FLOATS IT, ALONE ON THE
SIDELINE. HARVEY WILL WALK IN FOR A DENVER
TOUCHDOWN! HE SCORED THREE LAST WEEK, HE’S
GOT HIS FIRST TODAY, AND THEY’LL >> Daryl: HE’S GOT TO MANEUVER
AROUND. HERE’S HENRY TO’OTO’O.
WATCH HIS FEET STOP, COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP.
YOU CAN’T DO THAT ON RJ HARVEY. COMING UP FORWARD WITH COVERAGE
WITH HARVEY COMING STRAIGHT AT TWO-POINT TRIES THIS SEASON.
DOBBINS IN THE BACKFIELD. NIX, FLOATS IT, CAUGHT, TWO MORE
ON THE BOARD. WE’RE TIED AT 15-15.
TROY FRANKLIN WITH THE GRAB. AND THE FOURTH QUARTER BRONCOS
WITH EIGHT ON THE BOARD TO START AND WE SAW THAT ON TWO PLAYS
RIGHT THERE, WHERE JUST THAT FRACTION OF A SECOND COULD BE
THE DIFFERENCE. >> Kevin: 2nd AND 5, IT’S SHUT MOVING, BUT I THINK THEY WERE
SET BEFORE CHRISTIAN LEFT. >> Kevin: HOUSTON, 1 FOR THEIR
LAST 11 ON THIRD DOWN. MILLS, OVER THE MIDDLE.
TOO TALL FOR CHRISTIAN KIRK, WHO
WAS OPEN AT THE DENVER 35. IT BRINGS UP FOURTH DOWN, AND IT
BRINGS THE PUNT TEAM ON FOR THE BIG BLOW?
2nd AND 7. AND A CHECK TO HARVEY AGAIN.
ON THE EDGE. FIRST DOWN.
THE ROOKIE, OUT TO THE 35. TO’OTO’O AND STEWART COMBINED ON
THE STOP. SEASON THAT YOU HAVE TO MAKE.
>> Kevin: 3rd AND 11 AT THE 35. NIX, FOUR-MAN PRESSURE.
OVER THE MIDDLE, COMPLETE. A FIRST DOWN!
WHAT A THROW BY THE YOUNG >> Daryl: AND YOU WONDER HOW
MUCH HOUSTON KNOWS THAT. >> Kevin: HARVEY IN MOTION.
THEY BRING PRESSURE. NIX ON THE RUN, THROWS ACROSS
HIS BODY, INCOMPLETE. OH, THE HEAT WAS ON FOR E.J.
SPEED, AMONG OTHERS. MINNESOTA AND DETROIT, WE’RE
HERE IN HOUSTON, A TIE GAME, DAVIS MILLS ON IN RELIEF OF THE
INJURED C.J. STROUD. COMPLETE TO JAYDEN HIGGINS ON
THE SIDELINE, WHO GETS OUT OF WILL LUTZ.
>> Kevin: FOUR-MAN PRESSURE. MILLS IN TROUBLE, HIT AS HE
THROWS, INCOMPLETE. AND NOW DENVER WITH A MINUTE TO
GO, IS GOING TO GET THE FOOTBALL BACK, AND NEED ABOUT PROBABLY 15
TO 20 YARDS, DEPENDING ON THE A TALE OF TWO DEFENSES TODAY IN
HOUSTON. NIX, PRESSURE COMES.
HE RUNS. THERE’S ROOM TO RUN.
LOOK AT THE REAL ESTATE AND OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE HOUSTON 36!
GIANT PLAY FOR NIX FOR 25. >> Kevin: ON FIRST DOWN,
DOBBINS, PATIENT RUN, AND SPACE NOW.
PICKS UP NINE, AND A TIME-OUT. FIRST DOWN AND 10 FOR DENVER.
BO NIX ON THE RUN. BO NIX, DOWN WITH ANOTHER
SCRAMBLE OF NEARLY TEN YARDS. 34 FOR THE WIN FOR THE BRONCOS.
AND THE KICK IS GOOD! AND THE FOURTH QUARTER MAGIC
REMAINS FOR DENVER! 18-15, DENVER WITH THE WINNER.
>> Referee: THE FIELD GOAL IS GOOD.
THAT’S THE END OF THE GAME. AND WILL LUTZ WINS IN 11
STRAIGHT FOURTH QUARTER POINTS FOR THE BEST FOURTH QUARTER TEAM
IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE.
