Houston Texans vs Arizona Cardinals Week 15 Full Game Highlights NFL DEC 14, 2025
here called it his dream job to come back at head coach. He’s done well. Also the third season for Jonathan Ganon and it’s this season that’s the most of any team in the NFL. Arizona won the toss. They’d rather kick it off the start. They want is back to receive the kick and Chad Ryland. Thanks for being with us for the NFL on Fox from Houston, Texas. And up across the 41 before going out of bounds great starting spot for this what he’s done so far. He’s protected the football very well. Missed those three games with a concussion, but back with two and has been Oh, he didn’t play very well. 48.4% completion percentage, but I thought he managed the game exceptionally. 39 yd return. Woody Marx picks up a couple to start. It is kids day here. Marks, two different other rookies on this offensive unit. Yeah, and I think the big guy, the guy that makes the huge play, he is an explosive play. 20 plus yards waiting to happen. 18. Into the end zone. An opening drive. Takes a touchdown. How about that? Well, Nico Collins, he’s just going to run the over across the undercuted. Buddha Baker there. Doesn’t get to the receiver. And like I said, he’s a big play if you’re this Houston offense. on for the X and up and through. Collins with his bang bang bang just like that to get things going here in Houston. Most in the NFL. Obviously those those yardage numbers increase as well. Yeah, he is. Like I said, he’s the difficult catches over the middle, but he’s got that long speed that can just walk away from you when he gets the ball in his hand. And whoops the ball in the air and the Texas hand it out of the air. A special teams play for Dar. We said bang bang kid put his hat right 56 right here. That’s Hill pack right on the football right through the luck. Right. Luck has the smell of perspiration. When you outwork the other team, good things are going to go your way. Player has helped out in the run game and Woody Marks will have a first down near the 10 yd line. In the way getting to that second level and that’s what you’re trying to do right now. Watch this double team work itself up to the safety. Then it’s just a matter of breaking tackles and making plays. Blake Fischer, extra lineman in after an 11 yd. The Arizona Cardinal defense, a defense we mentioned the amount of injuries that they have gone through always plays his heart out no matter what’s going on. Yeah, no question about it. Kus Campbell, number 93. this his career as a defensive lineman 18 seasons and just continues to make plays leads his and he will lock that into the end zone away from everything he has me after a two-yd loss on the previous run play. Well, I love that about CJ Strad and that’s run is a smoresport. Sometimes you need to eat appetizer and when you bounce out there the speed of this defense you out of these situations. threatening blitz and time for Straoud and he tried to escape up the middle. He’s brought down. It’ll be fourth rookie. First rounder made the play. Yeah, this is one of those just a threeman rush here and it’s they do bring a fourth guy. That’s Xav Collins off the outside. But hey, it’s just about maintaining that football. Don’t turn that try for Kimi Fair despite missing a couple of games. Super steady nails that divisional battle as well. Jacksonville, by the way, is already leading to Jets. But Houston needs to win at least one more game than Jagger. A tiebreaker scenarios would include things like a record against common opponents. We’ll follow it closely. Another and he will get up to the 22 yd line where he is hammered. And here comes the are creating some trauma. Currently Arizona currently the Houston Texans are old this week since week six starting for Tyler Murray. He leads the NFL in passing yards and against Houston. That’s Derek Stinley Jr. coming from his corner spot. Harris Johnson, best lineman on the team, a backup at running back and receiver, etc., etc., etc. Yes, but they do have one dude that is a difference maker right there. Trey Mard standpoint at the tight end position. He is a problem. Ret fires and inion it’s the best in the NFL and that’s not just the stats that’s the eye test. They only give up 16 points a game. There isn’t anything to first play from the line of scrimmage. He is a differencemaker but like I said they have got difference makers. Petri big game in the second there with that fantastic pick of Momes when they knocked off the Chiefs at De Marcado as soon as he got the football was nailed by Henry to They’re trying to get this natural pick play. He navigates that traffic, puts his foot in the ground and is at the so fast and so savvy about what you’re trying to do to them. They read it and they react and they are could be almost 51 yds. Jaylen Mo will watch that bounce out of bounds. There could be 78 different players used by the end of today. That’s the most. and 21 players on injured was of a factor for this team this year. Remember, they started 2 and 0 before tumbling. And then yeah, guys, it was not a pretty injury at all. He couldn’t put any weight on that left ankle. He was hopping the sideline and then a great amount of pain when he was being carted to the locker room. Yeah. And we have two players. That’s Cody Simon who’s wearing the green dot. the fivegame win streak for the Texans. Jaw Jordan who just called up from the practice squad first up field as Dton Schultz just short of a first down. Well, you can see Gather kind of rolls up the ankle and then you’re going to see the hyperextension right there on the right side of your screen on their own power. Hopefully they get back into this game after a 9 yd pickup. It’s back Carissa Thompson. Hey Carissa. Hello Chris. So the Eagles as you know trying to hang on to their lead in the NFC East. He’s not that pregame losing script. All right. Thank you. Good to hear you. We expected that from the Eagles. Looks like Woody Marks got his helmets on helmet on. Wants to get back of course active but Nick Chub is inactive today with a rib injury. 11 and Marks is coming back in at running back. Well, you saw I mean so many young players, so much struggle even getting lined up, Chris, with so many new players. So something to watch for when you have all these injuries. All struggle. Stra has it, but he’s out of bounds. We’ll check that penalty. Defense from the 21 yd line. First down Houston is our referee today. And once you get beat, you’ve got to at some point turn and look for the football. Never really Here we go. First and goal thinks to Schultz down there in the end zone. And you’re right, a great throw, you know, down there that he can get that PI on and Woody March back by the Cardinal defense showing some tough as well. Well, they miss among the injuries. M Wilson senior they missed a lot in his leadership his play that’s where Cody continues for Arizona comes in stopped short it’ll be third and goal yeah say what you want right here you got a first and goal from the one yd line and fight here trying to hold them to a three-point try yeah ball control for the Texans but one area that they haven’t when it comes to getting touchdowns of course the big play to Nico Collins they didn’t have to worry about Back marks back in with two tight for a touchdown. Sometimes the be an inside zone goes right through the hands on the snap. Unbelievable. And Johnny on the spot. Marks. I’m telling you what, you want to talk about fortunate, dude. He And then he rolled the wave. He jumped in like it was a designed play. Extra point is good. That’s Woody Marks, the rookie. Injured a moment ago back in the game and into as a rookie. And notice team points. It’s a franchise record for most first quarter points that are scored in Tech. And they’re not done yet. Andre Velli on the return. Stop short of the 29 return to start the game. Nico Collins on the pass from Straoud into the end zone. And then the touchdown by Woody Marks after a pass interference on a play to Dalton Schultz. Sixth straight win. Michael Carter is now the back since Knight went out injured. McBride pick up about seven from first in receptions. Actually tied with Huga Nakua of the Rams. He already has eight. Yeah, they’ll use everybody like every every guy on this defense is going to get an opportunity to cover McBride and he is banging into the second Cardinal team, right? They’re still on that opening script. So, you’re still trying to figure out exactly what’s going on, what the defense is playing. Going to play it exceptionally well. So, your openers are still there for you. Nice first down right off fake to him and Brassette has to get rid of it quickly. Tackled at the 45 is Frell Brown, one of the reserve tight end. Ping. Pensing is uh you know again using that opening script trying to find those voids in the so you can throw it out there in the flat thinking you’re going to get a big play and the next thing you know you’ve got one yard on Brassette passes and that’s Trey McBride who’s got a first down and barrel just a little tight end screen and McBride comes out there. Love this. The offensive line getting down there and field great yards after catch. And this guy inspires his teammates even when things are going poorly. Up 16 and Carter with a strong run. Catches with the great Ram receiver Nua dating back to last season. He’s now had 15 straight games with five catches from 2018. He he has a chance to break that tie today and already with a couple of catches. Demarcett in some trouble here. You’ve got to be very conservative here. If you’re the Arizona Cardinals, you’ve got three points on third down and short. It’s manageable. You’ve got to come away with at least three points off this drive to settle. Timeout was called before the snap by the Cardinals on third down two and they got it in time. Free shot to win your sheriff. $10,000 at cash prizes. See the Fox Sports app forward the tail right there. Going to try to do a little quick snap uh legal formation. Didn’t have anybody over the left tackle is guys getting confused. Guys don’t understand the operation. Guys haven’t had a lot of reps and those are the kind of Carter. Can he get the first down? And he will. Michael Carter in his fourth year. Former among the injuries, Trey Benson torn meniscus out. But before that, James Connor, who really is the heartbeat of this team, just started a avalanche of injuries for the Cardinals. And there is Michael about the 23 yd line. The Houston Man, I tell you, he’s reminding the officials. Yeah, there sometimes that’s Tommy told you. You think it You think it was a face mask? I’m going to say yeah, it was by Carter was because they are domining the edge with these defensive ends. And McBride with a block in front. See where they spot that and he got it. Two catches away from this. Well, they’re going to let him basically dictate in this passing. It seems I’d really like to see Michael Wilson get himself involved. He has been on a tear the last and a catch made. Tackled right away. It’ll be a first and goal as McBride already his fourth cent of the game in three. Guy can’t do. He runs every route in the book. Just the over route. Almost gets almost gets first quarter winding down. Cardinals threatening here. Trailing try and get into the end zone. A fast start for the Houston Texans. Known for their defense. Ten Hail down on the field. Chris Buyer. Thanks for being a part of the NFL on Fox. Houston Texans. Houston Texas here. Just outside the two yd line. extra line. That’s John Gaines in the back field. Has it but is tackled right away. Merl Brown, excuse me, as Gaines had the pass. And so now you sit down at second down and two. And I am not I’m not opposed to hand this ball, stop our running game behind our big offensive linemen. Yeah, maybe you go on fourth down as Michael Carter gets the football here. Just how about this defense? the ability not only to stack the offensive line, meaning using them and getting off and helping the linebackers as Alshshire steps up and makes a big play. I’ll tell you, they are so good. Probably going on fourth if they don’t get it. Carter’s the back. There’s McBride. Bottom of McBride. What he does and you’re going to get manto man down here. There’s Trey McBride, but they get no hands on the release by the tight end. Run of the shallow and the rest is history. That Morris. That’s the longest ever by a tight end as he eclipses Travis Kelce on a good looking drive against the number one defense in the NFL. The workhorse. His fourth year out of Colorado State. He was a second round draft pick 2021. Cardinals spotted him. Went to the Pro Bowl for them even with all this Cardinal offense. Jen Chris, they just mar in a season where there just hasn’t been a ton to celebrate. This is a team victory. Jacobe Brassette talked to us about how important it went first with Trey McBride. So from Jonathan Ganon to Jacobe Brassette to members of the defense, everybody congratulating this time. No problem. And that pass to Nico Collins is no problem for the Texans. You’re going to watch I mean there’s He’s got outside leverage inside player on him as well. Watch him. I mean that’s what happens when you’re 6’4 222. You’re just bigger than everybody else in previous play. We have an illegal formation. Offense number 57 did not report on and he was on the end of the line of scrimmage. Going to take that off the board. So Blake Fiser who has been used as the extraation and um just doesn’t report and he didn’t report. He’s saying he reported he’s you got to go grab the official and you got to say hey listen dude 57 you see me I’m reporting out over the top and said they go all the way back to the 30. The fans didn’t like that. on first and 15 pass. He one of three Iowa State receivers, two rookies in Hutch in his third year. That’s just against the rookie corner. That’s Johnson and they are cutting him up in the middle of the football field right now. Slants James mentioned over 200 yds passing for Stra. He’s fighting it up today. I do Chris letting you know that the Patriots up seven nothing already on the Bills and Drake May again for his second touchdown. Thank you. And a turnaround year for teams like boy New England. Certainly what Jacksonville is doing by the mostly. Appreciate the update. Straight ahead. Good for the Jacksonville 3-1 in the division. Texans 4-1 now. They don’t play each other. Remember, they split, but they’re done facing the Jags headto head. Now, I’ve got breaking news. Um, they came back in jumble with Blade in 18. Back to Marks and tackled from behind. Here comes the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award for third straight year. Number 79. 10 yardd penalty. Still first rounder from Minnesota, excuse me, second rounder has called for that penalty. He’s been a pleasant surprise. Watch the left side of your screen. You see him grab it right there on the shoulder pad inside the frame. Tackle position on first and 20. Jordan carries the NFC South. It’s a three a three car race, we’ll call it. You know, we have NASCAR on Fox and Indie 500, Indie Car on overdrive with five straight wins, catching the Colts, trailing the Jags, as we showed you a moment ago, but getting ready for next year. All right, that’s what they’re doing with their driver Cam Warren. And that pass record since week four. And we take a look, you just saw the Patriots on a roll again. Denver, the text, the top three AFC seeds from last year, the Chiefs, the Bills, the Ravens. Secure a field goal attempt, right? You can throw it short of the sticks. Give yourself an opportunity to kick this field goal. 37 or 38 yd line. And it seems like we’re making his juices difficult their schedule combining the strength of schedule with opponents the toughest this year. Well, not since they got rolling. This will be Ky Fair from 55. Now in the pregame, it’s gone for 55. Well, like we said, CJ three-point scramble by CJ Strad. big time play to give things as the Texans build the sixth 50 plus yard field goal of his career and that’s the most in Houston Texan history. Remember, he was out three games as well, but the Texans kept on ticking. Big East Big 10 battle on Fox College Friday. Villanova taking on Wisconsin. It tips off Friday. Bribe the story for the Cardinal offense. Again, they’re two, three deep at the running back position of his ninth touchdown grad this season. Time for Brassette and to the other tight end down two of the better tight ends, young and old. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, they have been absolutely, like I said earlier in the broadcast, think he’s the best tight end in football. all things considered. And man, he’s the guy 35 before before he was hit by Tamari Lasser, man. And make some plays. No, just listen. Take a listen. Guy and uh obviously ain’t afraid to put his face on somebody either. Third and miss long. A little wide, excuse me, for Michael Wilson who was open. And the punting unit will come out the edge. Lacer is off Michael Wilson. And Michael Wilson’s been on a terror here the last four weeks. 30 minutes. Jaylen Null back to receive a high kick. It’s a good kick. Backing him up. Null inside the 10. And he’ll work his way up the side. The starting running back, the rookie from USC. And before that, Mississippi State as Marks is getting the rest. Jen right now, Woody Marks here on the sidelines, Chris, everything they can to try to warm it up. You can tell he does not want to go back into the locker room, but it is not an easy hall for him. Meanwhile, on the marks with some tough yards, just the worst starting field position for the Texans on the receiving end this secondary. Again, three rookies in the secondary, two and now officially updating Woody Marks. It is an ankle and he is questionable the rest of the way. Is out inactive but go the rest of the game and save him as he heals if possible. Stra wide open. It’s the 40 for a first down. It’s Dalton Schultz. Wide safeties and somebody deep in the middle of the full football field. What you want to do is you want to get into that middle football in the middle and so perfect execution by the quarterback reading the defense understanding where the void for the Texans just won ahead of Nicoard Jordan carries Woody Mark of the league has been the fourth most sacked quarterback and we’ll get an update if anything further comes out opportunity to run the football because of his third down blitz pickup. Now all of a sudden you’re down to your back point mark. This crowd is on the move and completes to Kate Sto and he’s got a first down and 47 problem against Tennessee week 11. Yeah, Kate Stove just getting to the outside edge and hey listen when you don’t pick up protection. Now they do have you know Dar Owal who is a special teamamer that action is carrying the ball gets it again here has happened in this game. He falls inside the 45 yd line. Ugly three and ugly four. Keep yourself the whole entirety of your playbook is open. Now the play action is open. Offensive coordinator of Houston. By the way, Jordan is from Arizona. Champion break of the season game. Stroud on the move. Oh, between two defenders and a first down throw to Schultz. Well, he thought he had one-on-one on the opposite side to Nico and the safety came over the but CJ Stra saw that double coverage came back to the opposite side found his tight end is exactly what he wants to get. Baloy has come in as Stra set to throw again. Well, I mean, there’s just no picking up big yardage and those are the mistakes you have that consistently haunt the error this season. Got a couple of rookies playing and that can’t make Jonathan Ganon happy. Look at the total yards over 200. Stra lane Stover ends lighting it up in this game. And Stover the backup miss drive. Six out of six. looking for more. Nothing there. And there’s nothing there. And he’s proud of the way that CJ has warmed up to that idea to live for another doubt. And like these are the these are the kind of game management decisions that CJ Strat has. Stellar defense. Don’t put ourselves in a short field. Don’t turn the ball over. We’re going to have a chance to win. Bring it in. It was Fer Nico Collins. He’s got great reach. It’s fourth and goal. They’ll bring out the kick and space and just trying to work the one-on-one on the rookie corner. Burke, Nico. And that’s just great. They’ve got a lot to learn. Denzel Burke, Will Johnson, but they will compete and they’ve got high ceilings here. They really third of the game from 30 and also 55 yds away. Ah, make sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That’s it. Now give her her phone back. How do you all know each other? you friends? Progressive can’t save you. Wait, did we finally agree? Texans possessions touchdown, field goal, touchdown, and a 237 Texas advantage as they’re going for their ninth win. The amount of yardage. Texans also have a takeaway in this game on a special teams fumble recovery. Cardinals do receive low but gathered in by Bell reserve receiver gets it up to near. The stage is nearly set buzzing with anticipation as the postseason positions start to flicker into place. Terry is game of the week. We will see you at the half. Thanks curtain guys. And we have Shelley who returned that kick. I mean they already you know Greg Dors is on the injured list. Marvin Harrison Junior’s and now Shel and Weaver Weaver who played last week has had a hamstring they were hoping he could go. He’s in good. You see the guys huddled around on a knee praying for their teammate. There’s some movement there. The cart already. Bam. Knight was driven off the field by Belli. Let’s check out what happens. And pile and always said one of the places you can tell the difference from a roster to roster is the wedge being aggressive and just laying some licks on players. And we hope Bachelli is making sure that these guys are okay. And nothing brings opposing teams together like an injury. It it certainly is. And all the players standing around praying. And you know, my prayer is always that God’s word says, “League, injuries happen, severe injuries happen, and we just hope and pray for nothing but the best and a speedy recovery. And there is a game to be played to finish up with 138 before the half to help prevent concussions here in the flow of the game. to around the 31 yd line. Lacer making the play. Yeah. Now you you had that emotion. Get yourself into field goal range at the very least. Tried to get it to him and now he’s slow getting up. Now are they calling it incomplete now? Let’s take a look. Rud. Yeah. And then just knocks the wind out of himself as that ball goes through the wickets. And remember, you get the ball coming out of halftime. So with a minute seven leg left, you can try to push it down the football. Remember that the Texans still have their four complment of timeouts as well while trying to get a first down. Third down nine, but and that pass is caught right on target to Trey McBride. Client tries to jump underneath, but this is an incredible third down throw from that dirty. Client tried to undercut that. I I tell you that is that’s professional football right there. S will get rid of this quickly and incomplete. hung in the air at the 45 yd line spot. Here he is right here. Now you got to come run to that. Don’t stop, especially against this defense. Your quarterback’s expecting to come into the middle of the football field. And that’s the inexperience. They throw it second most in the NFL behind the Bengals more than 65% of the time. And his arm was Yeah. Will Anderson got to his arm and he said he caught it. Hands are that is that is a catch. Review here. They should look at that. It’s great effort by McBride to haul this in. Yeah, it is. And just because it stops the clock. I mean, that wasn’t a a two-y gain, but the timeout then. Yeah. Then you’ll have to use one of your timeouts. Well, you have one left. And I see it as a catch. ball gets close to the ground, but to me has an arm under. And as you guys already said, if they reverse that, if they third down here, we’re spotting it at the 48. I think none of the edition, please put 59 seconds on the game clock and we’ll run 10 seconds from there to 49 seconds. To move it to 59 seconds and then run it back to 49 or can you just put 49 seconds on the clock? It seems like a lot for Trent McBride this year. second straight year with 1,000 receiving yards in quite some time as the catch is made by Michael Wilson and it’s going to be fourth down. Use the timeout. Would you try a field goal of long threeame warm-up, but this will put you in the range of 60? Yeah, you you’ve got to go for it. Don’t forget it. He misses. Then Houston would get the ball where the kick happened from which would be right around. Did not use their timeout. That was a Texan timeout for clarification to get ready on defense. Up fourth ret looks and he’s sacked back at the 49 yd line. Deno Audrey is such a good player inside and you’re going to watch him shove him into the back field. two hand bull rush. Look at this. I mean, he has just beaten the quarterback play and now you’re sitting there with two timeouts left and you’re about 30 yardd or 20 yardds away from the clock as Stra on the move will complete and that’s D Schultz. They’ll have one remaining and he did get the first down. Fair has three field goals. He’s made from 55 today. They get nuts with 28 seconds and still a timeout. His career ball is 61. Sh. They’re going to say he’s not out of bounds, but he was stopped. And the Texans will have to use stop. And that’s the correct call. Will Johnson making a nice tackle. See how he’s going backwards right there as he goes out of bounds. Stop is what I was trying to say. So really nice play by the young corner Will Johnson. Burke the rookie from Ohio State playing for the Cardinals and Stra told us hey six former and 5 seconds for the moment to take advantage of the defensive stop running back. Hey, get down. Get yourself four or five yards. Get yourself down so we can get this spike. You don’t want to break one in that position. You hear that a lot with coaches situational and you hear complimentary football 52 y will not work. Not good. Special teams play. Kas Campbell 68. Look at him get inside right there. Certainly. Hey, listen man, that’s a veteran player. That’s brought to you by Taco Bell. Trey McBride record setting and see if they make any adjustments in regards to shutting down Trey McBride and the passing game. Receivers brought down again. The special teams started with a bag and they continue to play well. in your highest scoring first quarter ever in Texans history. What had this offense rolling? Our offense has been clicking. They’ve been executing really ways. Great connections with the receivers, Dalton included. So, they’re doing a fantastic job. Just got to come out in the second half and just finish the right way. Trey is a great player. We knew that coming into the game. We just got to do a much better job of challenging him on all of his routes and he’s going to make some plays as he hauls that in to keep things going. I mean, it’s like you you know that it’s coming, but not even this great Texan defense and trying to get the quarterback off the tight end. They did that against Kansas City. They did that against Indianapolis. Carter carries. Yeah. McBride. He’s just a little bit short. We mentioned the 100 catches in backto-back season. Do it back to back. You need a yard and I don’t think so. Jacobe and they’re going to be short now. They try to go quick snap and Togei taking on that double team. Trust me, he’s down there. His little feets are going 100 miles an hour trying to grab. He keeps surges forward. Important to break. Yeah, you’re going to have to get points on this drive. 100% correct. And there’s one guy that wide receivers, you really got to get Michael Wilson involved. He’s been great. But there’s one dude, one dude only. The Texans have to go. Dump it off to Michael Carter. Gets a block. Carter’s got a first down across midfield. Brought down at the 49 yd defense and making the play on Carter. But a good part of the Arizona offense. The center. I mean, coming out there, getting those offensive linemen out there and creating space. Fires it open. Inside the 35 is Michael Wilson. They need him. Technically, it’s a neck injury, but there is some good news. Talking with Jonathan Ganon at halftime, he said Belli did have full use of his time and told them they have to come out and play this half for Belli. We’ll see how much of a difference it makes. Thoughts and prayers with Belli for sure. Five. So, the receiver position healthy in this game today other than your tight ends Michael Wilson and that’s it. Yeah, and Wilson has just been on a tear the last four weeks. had that over route that off your all-star tight end McBride and again you throw it as much as anybody in the league and this time there is him and the way he gets the ball to Michael Wilson Marvin Harrison Jr. drafted, you know, originally in his the dirty routes, the underneath routes, using his body and being physical at the point of the catch. And that’s really where he his career in his third year from Stanford. Drafted in the third round, brother Cardinal Graette throw nice. Great route at the top of the route. Look at Plant’s foot and just stop. He sells the go route, the nine to get that punch out. But that is a great route, a great combination between quarterback and wide receiver. making it all go. The the passing game actually picked up when he came in to replace Kyler Murray. Here comes the flag as he will keep it himself and go out of bounds inside the 10. 34 10 yd pen lead. They play first down. Always tough when that QB breaks up in this pocket. As soon as he gets outside, that spinoff by Rankens is what creates that holding. You got to understand when that angle of that defender changes, you got to let him go. You got to take your hands off of him. Williams is out for the season. Evan Brown, Christian Jones is active for today coming back as per good. And that was just a smart decision by the quarterback. Tight end screen. They had it covered here on second down. He’s got 17 completions in this game. You know he set an NFL record for set with four happened at a point in his career. It’s real accident. It’s another takeaway for the Texans. That’s Texans on offense up 23-7. this corner post but and jumps it right there. You got to press the corner outside so you can create space for your quarterback and caught and moving up field across the 30 is Jordan. And then Wilson frustrated over there on that route. Marks had a knee injury coming into the game at Syracuse and has been active today. Jar Jordan inside the 20 all the way down to the six. Well, it gets sweat, lose a little contain right here. Jonah Cardinal with so many different players that are playing right now. Your margin for error is razer rich. Miss a route, miss a, you know, a a contain by the defensive end and a big play is going to happen. Well, they knew what they were doing when they activated Jamar Jordan because as we mentioned and sets them up for another scoring opportunity inside the nine three for a first. They did not punt in the first half. Six drives scored on all of them. It’s Campbell. Does the punter get paid in the first half or do they they hold back that money? Look at this formation. Stra winds up flagged down. Offense number 57. The 5 yd penalty replay. Third down. It’s on the extra line down here on the end line of scrimmage. I don’t know. I didn’t I mean maybe I’m third down six now for the first down under six to play. Stra pass is caught for the first down. How about that? Finding a one-on-one versus the linebacker Davis Gaither. And look at the finger. Well, he scored that fourth quarter go ahead touchdown in the Sunday night win over the Chiefs and KC that made a big catch there. Jamar Jordan and the Cardinals could gain. Well, one thing I will say about this Arizona Cardinals defense when now there’s a lack of talent and there’s a lack of execution, but one thing Jonathan Gamon’s players do play hard. Second and goal. Stra on the move. Three years on the job and this was a rough year. You want to you want your record to in the future with Kyler Murray who’s part of their plans or not. That’s certainly got to be linked to what front next year as well for the Cardinals. Back to the Texans. St. Dton Schultz. A couple things from the from just scra creating some space and creating some time. Both hands on the ball. Step up now. Get yourself outside. Find a touchdown. He has improved dramatically from his rookie year in that department according to the coaching staffs. Get to the playoffs. The 50 yd run, the touchdown Tom got his ninth game this year over 200 yds passing and they’re piling up the points and they know the Cardinals will move it. Jaylen Brooks on the return and for him to get up near the 28 bragging about it. number one in the NFL both scoring most important stat total defense and then only unit to have two players with in 10 straight games that’s the longest inseason streak since back in 1989 when it starts clicking look out I will tell you this they’re one of those teams they get in the player with a good run across the 35 time for a game break thank you Chris Bills down 10 to the Patriots three we have a 24-21 ball game in Foxboro out. Thank you. Bills trying to avoid getting swept streak alive but passing yards against goes back to Deno Ryan. Remember defensive coordinator Deniko Ryan at San Francisco comes over here and look what he’s done who he had as a rookie undrafted free agent in San Francisco. Saw him grow and coach him up there. He went to Tennessee for year but brought him and built up an entire team. But the defense is what saved him early as McBry’s going to get a first down. Use this tight end screen on first and second down and they just do an exceptional job. You’ve got Adams out there. Excuse me. That is Petri the nickel corner and you’re off to the races if you’re McBride. Carter the back McBride. What a day catches. Play clock under his from McBride at the last moment by pullock. Kaylin Block on the play. How about Drew Pency, offensive coord defense that he has seen on tape since that 2015 Broncos no fly zone. More scores. But two, it’s pin your ears back. Play the run on the way to the quarterback. Those are the ears back. But I know what you I know what you mean. They do it. It must be in the helmet. Carter gets her team at home against the Jets in the third quarter. So you see they have a wildard spot. They aren’t going to play Jackson. Texans can still get the division through tiebreers, but there’s other competition, right? If you get a great number count here, you just won the gets the first down. Settle itself down, right? You’ve gotten beat on. What you’ve gotten beat on is kind of a pop draw and you’ve got beaten on playing a little bit better defense right now. Can’t just all be about getting to the quarterback. That’s Blaze Carter gets to the 20 yd line. Ran that inside trap. That’s the second time this drive is hurting right there coming off the field. Then he got poked in the eye. That is not a good sign already. Woody marks on the sideline in some pain. Carter’s at a set on target and to the end zone and in Trey McBride with a touchdown for the pop it did that I got a new favorite player Chris I’ve got a new favorite player unbelievable on his shoulder here he is right here you going to show me what juke stick is yeah well well we’ll just see at the top of the route here watch him and finish that run over the top extra point is good or record setting tight end of the Cardinals. Trey McBride, 17 yardds and compared to the rest of the team, it’s all his show. His eighth game with 10 catches or more. And you stick got inside. Great hands, by the way. And then the finish, like I said, he catched the Jaylen Mo for the Texans inside his own five on the return. And a five of Arizona. That’s how they open the game with a big return. They’re going to mark it. We’ll say 71 yardds. We’ll check that exact spot on the return. Well, blocked. And you know, we we talk about offense, we talk about defense, but this has been a special return game, the coverage game, out hitting people, everything. They have just dominated this game. and coming out throwing incompleted Delton Schultz. Yeah, Frank Ross and had them from the opening bell causing the fumble and they’ve had two big returns and after three quarters nater a lot to celebrate so far. Texans with the lead and the ball who is retiring at the end of the year. Part of our audio team on Fox since 1994. the NFL crew. We wish him the best. Took a drop back before Keem Davis Gaither got to him. Angel of a one-on-one to Nico Collins, but they ended up flying over there and double teaming him. So, as he climbs the it up and we want to thank our broadcast, go to the other extreme. Couple of young guys, our BAS we call them broadcast associates on their crew. Eric Mandy of production now facing a third and 12 they try and glide into the postseason and advance last week a tone setter couldn’t hang on the coverage was good at the 10 yd line will Johnson the rookie fair will try to go four out of Five. The kick is good. Take all the points they can get. The Texans the big number that jumps out the Pro Bowl players that have been selected as they’ve had high picks. Yeah, I mean Ryan is absolutely unbelievable. Hold these players accountable and giving great energy and then picking the right there. the rush to set and he gets rid of it. What do you think they’re going to do at quarterback? He meant he was not healthy. We decided to shut him down. So out of the picture Murray seventh year Murray. Patter Murray is one of those guys who’s a post snap quarterback meaning he’s going to make plays after this and I think they’re going to move on. Incomplete. question marks surrounding Kyler Murray’s future in Arizona. Speaking with several sources over there on the Arizona, they have really enjoyed they say the change is palpable with Jacobe Brassette in the locker room. The positive energy he bring game when they’re at least four healthy receivers and you talk to Brassette back to Murray and and listen Jacobe Brassette is one of those guys that can be a bridge quarterback. You find somebody the perfect guy to develop him to play until he is ready. So I think they’re in a good position. May but May learned behind him and he helped Greg May develop into a star for the Patriots going on 14. There’s a flag down up at the 40. Denil Hunter credit for the sack but hold everything. Yeah, there’s bride. Illegal contact. That’s one way to stop Trey McBride right there. I mean, that’s the only way they’ve been able to do it so far. The top of the route right here, you can see manto man coverage disrupts. It’ll give him a new set of downs across the 35 yd line. You can smile when the penalty’s on you and you’ve got a 3314 in this game. Hard offensive line has done an amazing job. That’s his Texan defense in that Aziz Alshshire who is the team’s leading tackler. Also the Texans the player I could go to to get a message to the team when my message isn’t working. And he’s been that first down around the 42 yd line. And how about that throw and you can see the corner coming up. Going up tempo trying to get back to the Michael Carter gets inside the 40 flag now. discussing. I think Derek Barnett is upset about something and I think Barnett wanted none of that. Yeah, it’s I mean it’s a totally legal play. First down Arizona. He didn’t give a number. Let’s see who he called it on. That is important. And then chucks him. He got caught if the play was legal. I was going to ask you about in that aspect of his game. He’s not one of those guys you have to put away from the run. He can be into the run, away from the run. First down after the penalty from inside the 25. Good enough for the first down. Just over 11 minutes. Over 200 yds passing as Jacobe Brassette to the end zone. Hurrying around. Great coverage, but even a more spectacular catch. Well, look at all over him. You want to talk about sticky coverage? That’s as sticky as it gets. And one knee. I’m telling you. Touchdown. And they’re going for two from 11 yd. There is no lack of effort when you watch the tape of the Arizona program. Petri with the Cardinals get a 20 after percent change maker award honors community members who are driving this work forward. You can learn more kicking off keeping it to a two possession up. What’s much better than just Saturday? Hey, how about a super Saturday, an NFL double header, Eagles, Commanders, and then four Eastern Saturday on Fox. And remember backs because of the injury that happened in this game to Woody Marx and Nick Shove active to start the game. Game carrying the football. Had a big 50 yd run set up a score is the back. Slipping a low tackle across the first down line. They’ve done a good job today running the football and the second level. And one thing you love, Daltton Schultz has all kinds of catches, but you see him as a lead block. Like that’s what you need. You need everybody executing, everybody doing the dirty work. That’s what Houston has done today. Gets it again. Tackle just short of midfield. The Texans have not punted today. and the Arizona products from high school there to the NFL here. Nonsense. Cut back inside. Understand, make a decision, put your foot in the ground and go get touchdowns in Louisville back in 23 and here he is on the receiving end before being brought down. You know, that offense to kind of hang out with with some of those guys. What what stood out about the way they worked together and the juggling of that unit? Well, over the course of this season, a lot of just intricate, simple mistakes, not getting to the right linebacker, not been able to run the ball. Here they’re going to throw. Stra attempting to tipped at the line of scrimmage. Nolan who what fourth game of the year coming back after a knee injury the last couple of games. Darius Robinson, some of those young guys, they feel like he’s going to be a star. They feel like he is going to be a productive player. It’s Arizona offense to get back on the field. It didn’t jinx it. This the first punt of the game for Tommy Towns on his Hutchinson downs it and the Cardinals have the football in a two two possessions. If they can find the end zone, it’s a whole new game for Arizona. Trying to end a fivegame slide from his I love this defense by the way. You got a two-score lead. You think, “Hey man, let’s play Ford right there.” This is going to be an aggressive group going to try to bring the heat to this Arizona offense. Be thinking four downs here as Carter carries. Jen Chris, the Texans down a straining staff. It’s a chest injury. He’s questionable to return. All right. Thank you, Jen. We hope that Mario Edwards has the and incomplete. Elijah Higgins the target. Recept one at a flag. The uh tight end. Watch Will Anderson on the tight end. That’s Trey McBride. This is how you to make a play. All right. That no call on the Higgins coverage. Yeah. I’m fine. I’m fine with that. Okay. So, because now they’re going to put it away. 740 and counting as the Texans. No lets it bounce. Having insurance isn’t the same as having State Farm. It’s like where do we even get this guy? Kevin Barnes beat the Franklin Elementary. Okay, stop. Stop guys. Actually, so don’t settle for just any insurance when there’s State Farm. Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. Defense, although they’ve been pushed around. I mean, they’ve held up to to have it. Houston tried and the clock will run. Now they’ve used this little pitch or this little toss play to the edge then on the other edge when Lacier comes up and you try to pitch it out there and he comes up there’s a corner and just absolutely destro the Ravens and this is going to end their chances of making the playoffs. Joe Burrow picked off by Kyle Vanoi who gives it to a low heat to play Chris D. Thank you. The Ravens still in the playoff mix out of the picture in the AFC South. A three-h horse race. Texans trying to hold on here. Nico Collins his second catch of the game as he gets inside the 30. His first catch was a earlier in the game where they took this away on the penalty. And look at him just adjust his body on the over route. Understand? Bounce off a haul and go make Yeah. I mean, just go make yardage. That’s about being 6’4 222 Cardinal sideline. The injuries continue to pile up, but Nico Collins know that touchdown catch kept him out of the picture because Dalton Schultz has had a big game, but that was a big gainer of 24 yards already been so effective. Jamar Jordan carries CJ Stra and he’s really been he’s been on it today. No mistakes. Yeah, situational football. He’s been very good not taking sacks, throwaways, but as I went back and studied the film, I thought he had seven, eight, nine just throwaways or to get back in this game. Never make a bad play worse. Live to fight another day. I thought it was exceptional game this guy’s having. Don’t think it was in the game plan to give him the ball so much. Scrimmage right here. Double teams. Usery going up and dispensing justice. And then watch the corner come up here. This Berler Stingley, you got to put your face mask on the runner and get him on the ground. Six to play. Jordan creates some space, goes down around the 11 yd line. Offensive line playing really good right now. Fourth game in a row. They’ve played together. The communication would just come up. I wonder who that could have been. A guy with a three Super Bowl rings. But how about short radar making his NFL debut off of the practice squad most of the last two seasons. It was in 2024 when it day is in at running back. What did Jordan have? He had 96 yards rushing. Is that what what he’s got right now? Yeah, he’s averaging almost over 100 in his first game. If he continues to excel, you’ll be able to rest Woody Mark. I love, by the way, I love this decision. Love this decision. Give him the ball. Come on. Yes. First and goal, Texans opportunity, right? You’re young, you get your first start, you got to take advantage of it. And he has done that work. They threw it and just smart decision by the quarterback who’s made a bunch of them. Third and goal. Stra endzone touchdown, thousand receiving yards for the season on that score. And then then you’ve got Schulz going to come on underneath on the goal line. Just a high low combination right here. coverage comes across on the shallow and it’s too easy. It’s like stealing for the Texans. Slipple away from White putting up 40 just over 3 minutes running here with a thousand receiving yards. And you look at the company he’s in as Texans, other Texans as well. Andre Hopkins did it over that time from 2017 to 2019. Uh tall company you’re keeping right there with Andre Johnson and Hopkins and Nico Collins. He does it with not only big plays in the passing game, but he’s done it this year with two different quarterbacks and they have hit 40 today. Texans celebrating as a 20point lead would appear to be nearly It’ll be down hall of fame class of 2025 among some Andre Johnson who gold jacket himself. These are some of the others in the hall. My favorite all time, the San Diego chicken. No idea that there was an actual mascot all. Look, he’s got his gold jacket styling for the holidays. Yeah, position title again. But first they got to finish off the Cardinals were set across the 47 yd line. Cardinals are out of timeouts. They’ll have the two-minute warning. Pressure coming. Chris gets out. He’s close to another first down. Now the level of frustration for this defense right now has got to be very high cuz avoid them. We have a player slow getting up string of not allowing a 200yd passer. He’s blown past that completing 70% of his passes to and he you know he really is positive. Loves playing in the league. He’s grateful for the opportunity to play. Said I’m not going to I may not be around as long as Philip and he’s you know taking care of his body. He said he learn something he learned the bucket list of where to put certain def. This guy has been really really good today and he’s just a consmate professional Kobe right there to McBride. Lean on the one guy you know you can take advantage of that’s that allar tight end was with the Patriots who drafted him and it came against the the Texans and a bit of it was a Thursday night game. A bit of an upset win for him against them in his career and going deep. He’s got one-handed drive. Getting closer to playoff time like the Texans. Our Fox NFL double header. Stick around. The game of the week. America’s game of the week. Rams other late action. That’s coming up right here on Fox. But that’s the game. And what a game. Well, maybe on this cuz he is sacked at midfield. Denil Hunter gets us going to be inside up and under. Look at him rip and dip on Jacobs. get to the set almost intercepted by Kayn Bol. I mean Bulock. He’s going to come from right up here at the top of your make on this in cutting route. And that’s you’re going to pay a fine in kangaroo court right there for dropping the ball. You know that’s going to cost you. Two takeaways today. He wanted another one. Fourth down and 18 completion but short of the first down. Fitting that McBride holds that in. Third tight end history. Travis Kelce with the others to do it in a losing effort. But he kept fighting. Here’s one thing staff. Listen, you have had all kinds of injury issues. No question about it. But one thing they do for that the entirety of this game and uh even though they’re overmanned and outmatched, they really came today to play it all day as Jacksonville is on their way to winning closing that out. So both of these teams will add a win. Texans hoping the Jags lose one and they win out. They win the division, but they could finish in a tie for the division division conference record. It started with a bang for the Texans of Deno Ryan as a another a third straight division title within their grasp and at the moment hanging on to their playoff run. 40-20 for Mark Schlerith, Jen Hale, I’m Chris Meers
