After getting absolutely punched in the mouth early, the Browns just ripped off a huge comeback, with rookie receiver KC Concepcion running in a 6-yard touchdown to tie the Texans game at 17-17 midway through the third quarter. They were staring down a 17-0 deficit, and man, did they claw their way back.
Concepcion’s First Rush TD Puts Cleveland Back In It
Talk about a big moment for a young guy! That 6-yard inside handoff was the first rushing touchdown of KC Concepcion’s career. The Browns got themselves in prime position thanks to Denzel Boston, who returned the punt all the way to Houston’s 47-yard line. From there, Deshaun Watson dropped an 18-yard pass to Malachi Corley, getting them right into scoring range. Then, Harold Fannin made a critical catch and run, and a facemask penalty on top of that set up Concepcion’s game-tying score on the very next play. That’s how you turn momentum around!
Houston’s Offense Stalls Out Hard
While the Browns were busy fighting their way back, the Texans’ offense hit a brick wall. Houston has gone three-and-out on two consecutive drives in this third period. You just can’t let a team get back into the game like that when you had them down big early. This game is a completely different beast now, locked up at 17-17, and it’s anyone’s to win.
