halftime

0:11 — Texans K Ka’imi Fairbairn misses a 43-yard field goal. The Ravens will go into the locker room up two scores, and they get the ball to start the second half.

0:44 — Watson gets sacked for a 7-yard loss and gets his ankle rolled up on. He holds it, trainers tend to him during the Texans timeout. But he stays in the game.

1:22 — WR Kenny Stills comes up with a key 9-yard reception on fourth-and-1 from the Texans’ 47 to keep the drive alive.

2:18 — Jackson finds Andrews for an 18-yard touchdown. Extra point is good. Baltimore will also get the ball to start the second half. Ravens, 14-0

second quarter

2:05 — The Texans special teams is not fooled by a fake field goal run as S A.J. Moore drops TE Mark Andrews for a 2-yard loss on fourth-and-4 from the Ravens’ 37.

6:39 — Texans coach Bill O’Brien throws the challenge flag, and, surprise surprise, referee Alex Kemp doesn’t overturn the no-call on the field. Ravens ball.

6:39 — On fourth-and-2 from the Ravens’ 33, the Texans go for it rather than try a K Ka’imi Fairbairn field goal. Watson looks for Hopkins deep, and CB Marlon Humphrey tackles Hopkins before he can even for a chance to catch the ball in the corner of the end zone. Ruled incomplete and a turnover on downs.

8:22 — WR DeAndre Hopkins records his 600th NFL catch, just the second-youngest receiver in NFL history to do so. Youngest is Larry Fitzgerald.

10:02 — The Texans gets off the field and the Ravens send K Justin Tucker out for a 43-yard field goal. Tucker doinks it off the right upright no good.

12:22 — QB Deshaun Watson scrambles around for about 10 seconds, and it ends badly as he fumbles from a LB Matt Judon sack and the Ravens recover at the 41-yard line.

15:00 — Baltimore won the toss and will defer. The Texans will defend the east end zone.

first quarter

The Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens take each other on for a Week 11 showdown at M&T Bank Stadium. Early positioning for the No. 2 seed in the AFC is on the line as a win would give both teams a 7-3 record and Houston the tiebreaker.
