2011 SEASON-IN-REVIEW TEXANS CLAIM FIRST AFC SOUTH CROWN The Houston Texans’ 10th season provided several franchise firsts, including an AFC South division title, playoff berth, postseason win and a franchise-record seven-game winning streak. Despite suffering a glut of injuries at key positions, Houston persevered to post its best regular season ever at 10-6 and finished 11-7 overall in head coach Gary Kubiak’s sixth season with the team. Houston made its first playoff run behind a drastically improved defense and a galvanized rushing attack on offense. The defense thrived in first-year defensive coordinator Wade Phillips’ 3-4 scheme, setting a team record and ranking second in the NFL with 285.7 yards allowed per game. Houston’s 91.2-yard average improvement from 2010 (376.9 yards per game) marked the third-largest single-year improvement since 1970. The team ranked fourth in the NFL with 278 points allowed and had 44 sacks, both franchise records. Both CB Johnathan Joseph and DE Antonio Smith earned their first career Pro Bowl selections. ILB Brian Cushing led the team with 114 tackles and earned Associated Press Second-Team All-Pro recognition. OLB Connor Barwin emerged as the team’s top pass rusher following a season-ending injury to Pro Bowl OLB Mario Williams in Week 5, compiling a team-best 11.5 sacks. Rookie first-round pick DE J.J. Watt was a force on the defensive line with 5.5 sacks during the regular season and was the defense’s biggest playmaker with 3.5 sacks and an interception returned for a touchdown in two playoff games. The offense used depth and a strong running game to overcome season-ending injuries to QBs Matt Schaub and Matt Leinart, and hamstring injuries that cost WR Andre Johnson more than half the regular season. Houston set a franchise record and ranked second in the NFL with 153.0 rushing yards per game and held the ball for 32:41 per game to lead the League in time of possession. The Texans also became the first team since 2003 to reach the playoffs after starting three different quarterbacks during the season. RB Arian Foster followed up his breakout 2010 season with another Pro Bowl selection. Foster led the NFL with 141.6 scrimmage yards per game and was fifth with 1,224 rushing yards despite missing three-anda-half games. C Chris Myers became the first Texans lineman to earn a trip to the Pro Bowl and RB Ben Tate complemented Foster with 942 yards on the ground. LT Duane Brown had a breakout season, anchoring the offensive line and earning AP All-Pro Second Team honors. Schaub threw for 2,479 yards and 15 touchdowns and ranked second in the AFC in passer rating before he went down with a Lisfranc injury in Week 10 at Tampa Bay. Rookie fifth-round draft pick QB T.J. Yates was pressed into action following Leinart’s injury and helped lead the team to the playoffs. Yates became the first rookie quarterback to engineer game-winning drives in each of his first two career starts since 1968. K Neil Rackers set a team record with 135 points, ranking second in the AFC in scoring among kickers. Rookie P Brett Hartmann set team records for gross punting average (44.4) and touchbacks in a season (23) before suffering a season-ending knee injury against Atlanta in Week 13.

HEAD COACH GARY KUBIAK HOUSTON TEXANS 2011 SEASON-IN-REVIEW

HEAD COACH GARY KUBIAK Gary Kubiak has constructed a talent-laden roster and installed an offensive system that has ranked among the league’s best since taking the reins of the Houston Texans in 2006. Kubiak led the Texans to a 10-6 regular season record and the franchise’s first AFC South Division crown, playoff berth and playoff win in 2011. He has a franchise-record 48 wins (including the playoffs) since being named the second head coach of the Houston Texans on Jan. 26, 2006. Kubiak has led the Texans to the four best seasons in franchise history, going 8-8 in 2007 and 2008 before producing the first winning season in team history in 2009, narrowly missing the playoffs at 9-7. His tenure has been marked by offensive proficiency, producing the top five scoring, total offense and passing season marks in franchise history from 2007-11. The top two rushing seasons in franchise history have come on Kubiak’s watch as well, including a a franchise-record 153.0 yards per game in 2011, which ranked second in the NFL. Four of the Texans’ top five defensive seasons have come under Kubiak, including the third-largest defensive turnaround in NFL history from 2010 to 2011. The 2011 Texans gave up 285.7 yards per game to finish second in the League after giving up 376.9 yards per game and finishing 30th in 2010. In 2011, Houston’s offense battled through a glut of maladies, including season-ending injuries to quarterbacks Matt Schaub and Matt Leinart, to rank 13th in the NFL with 372.1 yards per game. Despite the injuries, Houston ranked second in the NFL with a franchise-record 153.0 yards per game on the ground. Rookie quarterback T.J. Yates led Houston on its stretch run to the playoffs, while cornerback Johnathan Joseph, center Chris Myers and defensive end Antonio Smith earned their first trips to the Pro Bowl and running back Arian Foster earned his second consecutive selection.

Strong team performances on offense and defense have been sparked by some outstanding individual efforts under Kubiak. Seventeen of the 21 Pro Bowl selections in team history have come during Kubiak’s tenure, and the Texans are the only team in the NFL to produce a rushing, receiving and passing yardage champion since Kubiak became head coach. One of Kubiak’s primary goals upon arriving in Houston was to create a home field advantage at Reliant Stadium. The Texans have posted a 30-19 (.612) home record since 2006 and have had at least a .500 record at home in each of Kubiak’s six seasons. The team was 10-22 (.315) at home prior to Kubiak’s arrival. In 2010, the Texans’ offense finished third in the NFL with a franchiserecord 386.6 yards per game and produced three Pro Bowl selections, including first-time Pro Bowler Foster and wide receiver Andre Johnson, who fought through injury to make his fifth Pro Bowl. Foster re-wrote the team single-game and season rushing record books on the way to becoming the Texans’ first-ever rushing champion. The former practice squad player set an NFL record for an undrafted back with 1,616 yards rushing and also led the League with 2,220 yards from scrimmage and 18 total touchdowns. Schaub became the 12th player in GARY KUBIAK NFL history to throw for 4,000-plus 2006-11 Head Coach Houston Texans yards in back-to-back seasons in 2010 (a League-best 4,770 yards 2003-05 Offensive Coordinator Denver Broncos in 2009 and 4,370 in 2010). Foster 1995-02 Offensive Coordinator/QBs and Schaub became just the sec Denver Broncos ond pair of teammates in NFL his- 1994 Quarterbacks tory to lead the League in passing San Francisco 49ers yards one year and rushing yards 1992-93 Running Backs the next year.

SECTION NOTES EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT/GENERAL MANAGER RICK SMITH/ASSISTANT COACHES HOUSTON TEXANS 2011 SEASON-IN-REVIEW

EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT/GENERAL MANAGER RICK SMITH Rick Smith completed his sixth season as Texans general manager and first as executive vice president, overseeing all aspects of football operations. Smith has steadily strengthened Houston’s roster during his tenure through the draft, free agency and trades at key positions. Smith inherited a two-win team when he was named general manager on June 5, 2006. Since then, he has worked closely with the coaching and scouting staffs to build the Texans into a playoff team by identifying and signing elite players who have helped produce an exciting brand of football. Houston’s depth, built through the draft and free agency, allowed the team to persevere through a potentially catastrophic glut of injuries to win its first-ever AFC South division title and playoff berth. In 2011, RB Arian Foster was re-signed prior to training camp and was selected to his second consecutive Pro Bowl. CB Johnathan Joseph, one of the top unrestricted free agent signees heading into the 2011 season, was named to his first Pro Bowl. OLB Connor Barwin moved into Mario Williams’ weakside spot and recorded a team-best 11.5 sacks. TE Owen Daniels, who Smith re-signed following the 2010 season, led the team with 54 receptions for 677 yards. Rookie fifth-round draft pick T.J. Yates became the first rookie quarterback to orchestrate comeback wins in his first two starts since 1968, including Houston’s playoff-clinching win in Week 13 at Cincinnati. Finding the right personnel through free agency and the draft was also key in allowing Houston’s new defensive scheme to work in 2011. The end result was the League’s second-ranked defense, a dramatic improvement over the unit that ranked 30th in the NFL in 2010. The Texans’ 91.2-yard improvement per game was the third-greatest leap for a defense from one year to the next since 1970. On offense, Houston set a franchise rushing record for the second straight season and ranked second in the NFL with 153.0 rushing yards per game. Smith orchestrated a trade with Atlanta in 2007 that brought QB Matt Schaub to Houston. Since then, Schaub has become the 12th player in NFL history to throw for more than 4,000 yards in back-to-back seasons (2009-10), led the NFL in passing in 2009 with 4,770 yards, was named the 2010 Pro Bowl MVP and helped lead Houston’s offense to threestraight top-four NFL rankings (2008-10). Smith’s greatest success in the draft thus far came in 2009, when the Texans drafted Brian Cushing with the 15th overall pick. Cushing earned NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and Pro Bowl honors that year and led the team in tackles in 2011 for the second time in three years. Foster, who was signed by Smith as undrafted rookie free agent in 2009, had a breakout year in 2010, leading the NFL with 2,220 yards from scrimmage, 20 touchdowns scored and 1,616 yards rushing, the most ever by an undrafted player, in addition to earning Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors. The 2011 NFL Draft presented a different set of challenges for Smith and his staff, who had to change their perspective on evaluating prospects when Houston switched its defensive scheme from a 4-3 to a 3-4 following the 2010 season. The defense-heavy draft was led by Wisconsin DE J.J. Watt and Arizona OLB Brooks Reed. Watt (5.5 sacks) and Reed (6.0 sacks) became the first rookie teammates to record more than five sacks apiece since 1996. Reed also set a franchise rookie sack record at strongside linebacker. Yates went on to become the fourth rookie www.HoustonTexans.com

fifth-round draft pick to win his first career start since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger and started five games while filling in for Schaub and Matt Leinart, who suffered season-ending injuries. Smith has been active in League affairs while at the helm of the Texans. He was appointed to the NFL’s prestigious eight-man Competition Committee by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Dec. 5, 2008. Smith was an original member of the General Managers Advisory Committee that provides advice and other feedback to the NFL Football Operations department on the integrity of the game, expansion of technology and other ways to improve the game. He has also earned recognition from his peers and was honored with the Tank Younger Award in 2008, presented annually by the Fritz Pollard Alliance for outstanding work in an NFL front office. Smith has also had success drafting in the later rounds, taking 24 players between the fourth and seventh rounds between 2007 and 2011. Those players have combined to start 156 games for the Texans, with 2009 fourth-round pick SS Glover Quin starting the most at 44 games.

In 17 seasons as a head coach or assistant coach at the collegiate level, Dorrell was part of 10 winning records and 12 bowl appearances. Dorrell served as a collegiate assistant for 12 seasons, including seven years as an offensive coordinator. He began his coaching career at UCLA as a graduate assistant in 1988 before moving on to Central Florida (wide receivers, 1989), Northern Arizona (offensive coordinator/wide receivers, 1990-91), Colorado (wide receivers, 1992-93) and Arizona State (wide receivers, 1994); Dorrell returned to Colorado from 1995-98 (offensive coordinator/wide receivers) before coaching at Washington (offensive coordinator/wide receivers, 1999).

Houston Texans RB Arian Foster, CB Johnathan Joseph, C Chris Myers and DE Antonio Smith were elected to the 2012 Pro Bowl. LT Duane Brown, ILB Brian Cushing, Foster and Joseph were named to the Associated Press All-Pro Second Team. It marked the first time in franchise history that the Texans have had four players earn AP All-Pro recognition. It was the first Pro Bowl selection for Joseph, Myers and Smith, while Foster was picked for the second straight season. Brown and Joseph made their first appearance on an All-Pro team, while Cushing (2009 Second Team) and Foster (2010 First Team) are two-time All-Pro honorees. Brown (6-4, 320) anchored the line for the NFL’s second-ranked rushing attack and tied for the fewest sacks allowed by any starting left tackle in the AFC with two. The fourth-year veteran led a unit that paved the way for 11 100-yard rushing performances and a franchise-record 2,448 yards rushing (153.0 per game). He was not flagged for a holding penalty the entire season. Cushing (6-3, 248) was voted as the Texans’ Most Valuable Player by his teammates in a resurgent 2011 season. The third-year player led the NFL’s second-ranked defense with 114 total tackles, had two interceptions, was fourth on the team with 14 quarterback hits and had four sacks. Cushing led or tied for the team lead in tackles in 10 games and was voted a mid-season captain by his teammates. Foster (6-1, 229) posted another impressive campaign despite battling a hamstring injury for the first three weeks of the season. Foster led the NFL in scrimmage yards per game (141.6) and was the only running back in the NFL to have two 100-yard receiving games in 2011. He had seven 100-yard rushing performances, including 155 yards against Pittsburgh’s top-ranked defense and 111 yards against Atlanta’s sixth-ranked run defense. Foster was also named AFC Offensive Player of the Month for October. He became the fourth player since the 1970 merger to score three touchdowns and have more than 100 yards rushing and 100 yards receiving in a single game in the Texans’ 41-7 win at Tennessee in Week 7. Joseph (5-11, 191), who signed with Houston as an unrestricted free agent from Cincinnati just prior to training camp, is the first Texans defensive back to earn All-Pro honors. He is also the first Texans defensive back to earn a trip to the Pro Bowl since CB Aaron Glenn in 2002. The sixth-year veteran led Houston’s dramatic turnaround in pass defense with four interceptions and 15 passes defensed. He also registered 44 tackles, including 40 solo stops, and one forced fumble. The Texans thirdranked pass defense gave up 189.7 yards per game. Myers (6-4, 289) is the first offensive lineman in franchise history to earn a trip to the Pro Bowl. The seventh-year veteran started all 18 regular season and postseason games for Houston’s second-ranked rushing offense. Myers has started 64 consecutive regular season games at center for the Texans since being traded to the team from Denver in 2008. Smith (6-4, 280) had the best season of his career. He recorded sacks in each of the first five games of the season and finished with a careerhigh 6.5 sacks, ranking second on the team.

HISTORICAL IMPROVEMENT

The Texans saw a starter, key contributor or coach go down with injury in 11 of their last 13 games. The rash of injuries began in Week 4 when WR Andre Johnson went down with a hamstring injury that has caused him to miss six games. OLB Mario Williams sustained a pectoral tear against Oakland in Week 5 that landed him on the Reserve/Injured List. Special teams ace SS Dominique Barber joined Williams on IR the following week with a Lisfranc injury against Baltimore. In Week 7, starting FS Danieal Manning broke his fibula while making an interception at Tennessee, putting him out of action for three games. The injury bug continued to bite the team in Week 8 against Jacksonville, when top reserve ILB Darryl Sharpton suffered a season-ending quadriceps injury, landing him on IR. Houston has also lost its first- and second-string quarterbacks to season-ending injuries. QB Matt Schaub suffered a Lisfranc injury at Tampa Bay in Week 10, landing him on IR. Schaub’s replacement, Matt Leinart, started in Week 12 at Jacksonville and left the game with a season-ending collarbone injury in the second quarter.

YOUTH MOVEMENT

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT ON PASS DEFENSE

The Texans’ turnaround on defense relied heavily on young talent, especially when it came to pressuring the quarterback. Of Houston’s franchise-record 44 sacks in the regular season, 31.5 (71.6 percent) came from players with three years of experience or less. Third-year OLB Connor Barwin led the team with 11.5 sacks and set a franchise record with 4.0 sacks at Jacksonville in Week 12. Rookie Brooks Reed set a franchise rookie record with 6.0 sacks in 2011 and had a sack in five straight games at one point. Reed tied for sixth among all NFL rookies in sacks.

Houston’s 2011 pass defense was the polar opposite of what it was in 2010. The Texans were third in the NFL in overall pass defense, allowing 189.7 passing yards per game compared to the 267.5 net passing yards the 2010 defense allowed, which ranked last in the NFL. In addition to cutting down the number of yards it allowed through the air, Houston’s defense improved in every significant passing category. The Texans led the NFL with a 51.9 opponent completion percentage and had the second-lowest opponent passer rating, 69.0. Houston had more interceptions (17 to 14) and sacks (44 to 30) than it had the previous year.

71,545 • Reliant Stadium • Houston,Texas • Dec. 4, 2011 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

Houston edged Atlanta 17-10 in a thrilling game at Reliant that wasn’t decided until the final play. RB Arian Foster ran for 111 yards and a touchdown in rookie QB T.J. Yates’ first NFL start. Yates completed 12-of-25 passes for 188 yards and threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to TE Joel Dreessen in the second quarter. The Texans ran for 162 yards against the Falcons’ second-ranked rushing defense, which entered Week 13 allowing only 83.5 rushing yards per game. Foster had 71 of his rushing yards in the second half. Foster ran for 37 yards on the game-winning drive that spanned from the third to the fourth quarter and lasted 19 plays and 85 yards and took 10:41 off the clock. The drive was capped by a 1-yard touchdown by Foster on second-andgoal for a 17-10 lead. The Falcons had a chance to tie the game on the final possession. They got the ball at their own 33-yard line with 59 seconds left and no timeouts. QB Matt Ryan drove the Falcons to the Houston 25-yard line with 16 seconds remaining and threw three incompletions, the last of which was defended in the end zone by CB Kareem Jackson, to end the game. Jackson and CB Jason Allen both picked off Ryan in the first quarter. The Texans had 10 quarterback hits, including four by OLB Connor Barwin and three by rookie DE J.J Watt. Ryan completed 20-of-47 passes for 267 yards. Atlanta had two defensive touchdowns overturned by penalties. Early in the fourth quarter, LB Mike Peterson picked off Yates and returned the ball 31 yards for a touchdown, but CB Dunta Robinson was flagged for defensive holding, giving the Texans a first down instead. The first Atlanta touchdown was called back came on a controversial fumble call midway through the first quarter. Yates tried to throw the ball away on third and 8 from the Atlanta 15-yard line and was hit as he threw what looked like an incomplete pass. Falcons S James Sanders scooped up the ball at the 10 and ran it back 90 yards to the end zone. But the Falcons were flagged for a player running onto the field during the return, negating the score. Johnson had four catches for 97 yards before leaving the game with a hamstring injury. He made a highlight-reel 50-yard grab in the second quarter that set up Dreessen’s fifth touchdown catchof the season to put the Texans up 10-0. The Falcons then scored 10 unanswered points, capped by a 4-yard touchdown catch by Roddy White late in the third quarter.

41,202 • Paul Brown Stadium • Cincinnati, Ohio • Dec. 11, 2011 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

The Texans won 20-19 after trailing the Cincinnati Bengals16-3 at halftime to clinch their first-ever AFC South title and playoff berth. Led by their defense and rookie QB T.J. Yates, the Texans overcame a mistake-filled first half to rally for a last-second victory against the Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium. Yates threw the game-winning 6-yard touchdown pass to WR Kevin Walter with two seconds remaining. Yates, making his second-career start and first on the road, went 26-of-44 for 300 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. He saved his best for last, leading two 80-yard scoring drives in the fourth quarter. The last drive started at the Texans’ 20-yard line with 2:33 left to play, down 19-13 and with no timeouts. Yates moved the Texans into the Cincinnati half of the field and kept the drive alive on third-and-15 from the 40 with a 17-yard run up the middle for a first down. WR Jacoby Jones then drew a pass interference penalty on CB Adam Jones at the 6-yard line with 12 seconds remaining. After an incomplete pass intended for Walter, Yates found his man in the middle of the end zone to win the game. The Texans dug themselves a 13-point hole in a first half that included drops on a potential touchdown pass and on a potential interception that eventually led to a Bengals field goal. In the second quarter, RB Ben Tate lost a fumble on first-and-goal from the 1-yard line. The Bengals responded with a 97-yard touchdown drive, going up 13-3 on a 17-yard scoring pass from QB Andy Dalton to Jerome Simpson. Texans K Neil Rackers missed a 47-yard field goal in the final minute of the second quarter, and the Bengals wound up with a 49-yard field goal to go up 16-3 seconds before halftime. Houston allowed only 81 yards and six first downs after halftime. OLB Connor Barwin sparked the turnaround by sacking Dalton and forcing a fumble on the first play of the third quarter. OLB Brooks Reed recovered at the Cincinnati 17-yard line, and Yates hit TE Joel Dreessen for a 4-yard touchdown pass four plays later. The Bengals went up 19-10 with a 28-yard field goal late in the third. In the fourth quarter, Yates led a 13-play, 88-yard drive ending with a 33-yard Rackers field goal with 5:35 remaining. The Texans’ defense allowed two first downs before stopping the Bengals near midfield and forcing a punt.

71,540 • Reliant Stadium • Houston,Texas • Dec. 18, 2011 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

The Texans trailed the Carolina Panthers 21-0 at halftime and responded with 13 unanswered points but were done in by turnovers and defensive lapses in a 28-13 loss that snapped a seven-game winning streak. The Texans outgained the Panthers 358-318 but had three turnovers, including two interceptions by rookie QB T.J. Yates. It was the first time all season that the Texans did not force a turnover. The Panthers’ three scoring drives in the first half averaged 45 yards. Each came after a miscue by the Texans that gave rookie QB Cam Newton and the Panthers a short field. RB Arian Foster lost a fumble on the second play of the game. The Panthers recovered at the Houston 26-yard line and scored four plays later on a 26-yard touchdown pass from Newton to WR Steve Smith. Neil Rackers missed a 49-yard field goal late in the first quarter, and the Panthers turned it into a 9-yard touchdown catch by TE Jeremy Shockey. Panthers TE Richie Brockel ran in for a 7-yard touchdown in the final minute of the second quarter on a “fumblerooski” misdirection play on second-and-goal. The score was set up by an interception of Yates by LB Jordan Senn, who returned the ball past midfield. Houston’s defense limited the Panthers to 18 yards and one first down in the third quarter, but the Texans could muster only two field goals on two trips to the red zone. The Texans finally got in the end zone two minutes into the fourth quarter on a 1-yard touchdown run by Foster. Foster’s touchdown got the Texans to within 21-13, but they would get no closer. Newton led the Panthers 80 yards in seven plays on the following drive, taking a 28-13 lead on a 24yard touchdown run by DeAngelo Williams with 9:59 remaining. The Texans drove inside the Panthers’ 10-yard line on the ensuing drive, but Yates was picked off on third-and-goal from the nine to end Houston’s final scoring threat. Foster finished with 109 rushing yards on 16 carries and 58 receiving yards. Yates was 19-of-30 for 212 yards. OLB Connor Barwin and NT Earl Mitchell both had sacks, giving the Texans a team-record 38 on the season.

GAME 16:Tennessee 23, Houston 22

71,512 • Reliant Stadium • Houston,Texas • Jan. 1, 2012 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

Locked into the No. 3 seed in the AFC playoffs regardless of the game’s outcome, the Texans rested RB Arian Foster, CB Johnathan Joseph and TE Owen Daniels, and then lost QB T.J. Yates to a minor shoulder injury after one series. With Jake Delhomme under center the rest of the way and backups playing for most of the second half, the Texans narrowly lost to the Titans 23-22 on a failed two-point conversion attempt in the final seconds. Delhomme threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Bryant Johnson on third-andgoal with eight seconds remaining. The Texans decided to go for two points, but a false start pushed them back five yards. They still went for two, but the shotgun snap went over Delhomme’s head and was recovered by the Titans. Yates was injured on the Texans’ first play of the game when he was sacked by two Titans players. He finished the series, leading the Texans 90 yards in 13 plays for a 4-yard touchdown run by RB Ben Tate. Yates went to the locker room after the opening drive and did not return to the game. Delhomme finished 18-of28 for 211 yards and a touchdown with a passer rating of 99.0. The Texans’ starters played for the entire first half before giving way to a slew of reserves after intermission. WR Andre Johnson returned from a hamstring injury that kept him out of the last three games. He played 15 snaps and caught two passes for 21 yards. Titans K Rob Bironas made a 21-yard field goal early in the second quarter and WR Donnie Avery, who played at the University of Houston, caught a 1-yard touchdown pass with three minutes left in the half to put the Titans up 10-7. Texans K Neil Rackers made a 52-yard field goal with 1:09 left in the half to tie the game at 10. Bironas gave the Titans a 13-10 halftime lead with a 42-yard field goal on the final play of the second quarter. Tate opened the second half with a 56-yard scamper to set up a 37-yard Rackers field goal that made it 13-13. The Titans answered with yet another Bironas field goal, this one from 33 yards. The Texans drove 76 yards in 12 plays before stalling at the 4-yard line and settling for a 22-yard field goal from Rackers. With 2:32 left to play, the Titans took a 23-16 lead with a 23-yard touchdown catch by Washington. It proved to be the deciding score as the Texans wound up one point short.

AFC WILD CARD: Houston 31, Cincinnati 10 71,725 • Reliant Stadium • Houston,Texas • Jan. 7, 2012 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

In the first playoff game in franchise history and first playoff game in the city of Houston since 1994, the Texans defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 31-10 in front of a record crowd of 71,725 at Reliant Stadium. The Texans’ defense had four sacks, three interceptions and one touchdown – a 29-yard interception return by rookie DE J.J. Watt – against Bengals rookie QB Andy Dalton. Texans RB Arian Foster ran for 153 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries, and WR Andre Johnson had a 40-yard touchdown catch in his longawaited playoff debut. After falling behind 7-0 midway through the first quarter, the Texans went on a 31-3 run the rest of the way. They outrushed the Bengals 188-76 and won the turnover battle 3-0. The Bengals scored first with a 1-yard touchdown run by Cedric Benson with 7:34 left in the first quarter. It was set up by a 52-yard pass interference penalty on Texans S Glover Quin on a deep pass from Dalton intended for rookie WR A.J. Green. The Texans responded with a six-play, 80-yard drive to tie the game. Foster scored on an 8-yard touchdown run on first-and-goal. The Bengals and Texans traded field goals in the second quarter. Texans K Neil Rackers’ 39-yarder made it 10-10 with 1:48 left in the first half. Three plays later, Watt made the play of the game. He jumped behind the line of scrimmage and snared Dalton’s pass, then tucked the ball away and ran 29 yards to the end zone. The second half was scoreless until late in the third quarter, when rookie QB T.J. Yates hit Johnson for a 40-yard touchdown down the left sideline. On the next drive, the Bengals went for it on fourth-and-three from the Houston 47. Dalton was pressured by Watt, Reed and Connor Barwin into throwing a desperation pass that was picked off by former Bengals CB Johnathan Joseph at the 25-yard line. Texans FS Danieal Manning made a spectacular interception near midfield on the Bengals’ next drive. On a pass intended for Green at the right sideline, Manning caught the ball at the peak of his jump and just barely came down with both feet inbounds. Three plays later, Foster ran for a 42-yard touchdown on third-and-seven. He burst around the edge on an outside zone run to the right, then tossed aside Crocker at the 20-yard line as he tiptoed down the sideline on his way to the end zone.

AFC DIVISIONAL: Baltimore 20, Houston 13 71,547 • M&T Stadium • Houston,Texas • Jan. 15, 2012 GAME SUMMARY

SCORING

Houston gave up 17 points off four turnovers in a 20-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, ending Houston’s playoff run in the Divisional Round at M&T Bank Stadium. The Texans controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, limiting Ray Rice, the NFL’s second-leading rusher, to 60 yards on 21 carries (2.9 average). Arian Foster ran 27 times for 132 yards, the highest rushing total ever allowed by the Ravens in a postseason game. The Texans sacked Ravens QB Joe Flacco five times, with 2.5 sacks apiece for rookies J.J. Watt and Brooks Reed. They allowed only three points in the final 46 minutes of the game and 227 yards overall. The Ravens were 4-of-16 (25 percent) on third down. Baltimore recovered all three of its fumbles. After taking a 3-0 lead on the game’s opening drive, keyed by a 60-yard kickoff return by FS Danieal Manning, Houston forced the Ravens into a three-and-out on their first possession. Texans WR Jacoby Jones tried to field a 64-yard punt on a bounce at his own 13-yard line. The ball bounced off Jones’ facemask, and the Ravens recovered at the 2. They scored three plays later on a 1-yard pass from Flacco to TE Kris Wilson. The Texans’ other three turnovers came on interceptions by rookie QB T.J. Yates, who had thrown only three interceptions all season in his previous seven games. Late in the first quarter, CB Lardarius Webb picked off Yates’ attempt to WR Andre Johnson at the Houston 35-yard line, setting up a 10-yard touchdown pass from Flacco to WR Anquan Boldin for a 17-3 lead with 1:08 remaining in the quarter. The Texans trimmed the deficit to 17-13 before intermission on K Neil Rackers’ 33-yard field goal and a 1-yard touchdown run by Foster to cap an 86-yard drive. Both teams squandered opportunities in a scoreless third quarter. Rackers missed a 50-yard field goal that would have made it a 1-point game. The Ravens then drove to the Texans’ 1-yard line before ILB Tim Dobbins stuffed Rice for no gain on fourth-and-goal. Yates was picked off by Webb a second time with 7:21 remaining at the Baltimore 29-yard line. That led to a 44-yard field goal by Ravens K Billy Cundiff with 2:52 remaining, the only score of the second half. Yates moved the Texans to the Baltimore 38 at the two-minute warning. But he went deep for Johnson down the right sideline on the next play and was picked off by S Ed Reed. The Texans got the ball on their own 48-yard line with no timeouts, 45 seconds remaining and a chance to tie the game. After a 9-yard pass to TE Owen Daniels, Yates threw two incompletions to set up fourth-and-1 from the Baltimore 43 with 24 seconds left. His Hail Mary heave to the end zone deflected off WR Kevin Walter and fell incomplete.
