The Houston Texans regained the lead in their AFC Wild Card Game with the Cleveland Browns on Saturday.
The AFC South champs got a touchdown pass from rookie star C.J. Stroud to Nico Collins, who has become a lethal threat.
What a response from the @HoustonTexans.
C.J. to Nico for 6.

After the PAT, it was 10-7 Texans at the end of the first quarter.
Houston had scored first on a field goal but Joe Flacco led a six-play, 75-yard drive that concluded with a short run by Kareem Hunt.
Both offenses, particularly the quarterbacks, were seeing early success.
Flacco was 9-of-10 for 129 yards in the first 15 minutes; Stroud was 6-of-10 for 107 yards.
