Bulls on Parade

The Texans have secured their first playoff victory in franchise history

Way to go Texans! I was extremely excited to see my Houston Texans get their first playoff win tonight versus the Cincinnati Bengals. The Texans won 31-10 behind 2 TD's from RB Arian Foster, a receive TD from Andre Johnson and a INT Pick 6 from JJ Watt.

Thoughts from the game:
-Andre Johnson got the TD that basically sealed the win for the Texans. It was great to see one of the most classiest players in the franchises history get a TD after having battled all season to be on the field. He deserved it.

-Arian Foster is a beast, and a stately gentleman. If you didn't catch his first quarter Touchdown celebration he ran to the middle of the endzone and did Hakeem Olajuwon signature "Dream Shake" as a touchdown celebration to pay homage to Houston sports history and to thank the city. He then later on when Andre got his TD went over and did his Namaste bow to Andre as way of showing respect. It was classy old school versus new school.



-J.J. Watt is everything he was advertised, and more. He played like most veterans dream of playing in Indy 2 weeks ago, but stepped it up even more this year. The presence of mind to throw your hands up in the air to bat a ball amazes me. However, he has the forethought to catch the pass he's about to bat away and run into the endzone. That was the emotional momentum swinger in my opinion of that game.  I had a good feeling that we were going to win that game after that.
