24-0???? The Falcons are maybe the only team to choke worse. Texans suck. If you can’t hold off and win when you have a 24-0 lead you don’t even belong in the playoffs.

A choke job would've been for the Chiefs to fricking lose at home to the Texans who should've lost to the Bills.

Chiefs are a far better team.

Now, next week when the Chiefs choke away the AFC champ game against the #6 seed...that will be one of the all-time choke jobs.

This isn’t even the worst choke by a Houston football team.

Not sure I'd call it a choke being it was so early in the game.

Meh. They were on the road against a better team with over 3 quarters still to play. I think this is just the superior team finally settling down and playing like it more than a choke job. That 24-0 was fool’s gold.

Texans suck.


so a team that sucks, playing against one of the teams that has been top 2-3 in teh NFL all season long, losing a lead they had in the 1st half...constitutes an all time choke job?

I think the bigger surprise is that they had that lead in the first place, not that they lost it.

It’s pretty bad. Not being able to hold a 24-0 lead is horrible.

Chiefs were up 31 points on Indy back when Alex Smith played for KC. Ended up blowing that lead. This is pretty close to that level of choke job.

Losing it in a quarter is insane.

I bet there are a few Texans fans who remember 35-3. What’s even worse is those same fans see the Titans already sitting in the AFCCG.

It's really just a delayed domination.

The Texans just aren't on the Chiefs level, and it was only a matter of time before the game changed dramatically.

I think they lost that lead in like 8 minutes of actual game time.

First time watching football?

The Texans only got to 24-0 because KC was crap pun the bed on special teams and early mistakes.

This. Any other take is just silly. That 24-0 was smoke and mirrors. The cream just eventually rose.

Doesn’t matter how the 24 points were scored. If an NFL team gets up 24-0 in the playoffs and loses...... it’s a major choke job.
