Texans defence stuns Chargers in NFL play-offs

The Los Angeles Chargers’ defense defeated the Houston Texans to advance to the second round of the NFL playoffs.

In the 17-game regular season, Justin Herbert, the quarterback for the Chargers, only had three interceptions.

However, the Texans came from behind to start Wildcard Weekend off with a 32-12 victory on Saturday alone as they intercepted him four times.

Before the game started to take shape in Houston, the hosts took a 10-6 lead just before half-time.

The Texans then added a field goal from Herbert on the following drives, returning the first for a touchdown late in the third quarter and adding another field goal from the latter.

Houston won the divisional round next week with a run in the second offensive touchdown, but Los Angeles rallied.
