The Houston Texans scored an unusual two points after a breathtaking series of events in their Wild Card playoff game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday.

First, the Chargers scored a touchdown on 3rd-and-26 from their own 14-yard line after an 86-yard touchdown connection between Justin Herbert and Ladd McConkey. On the two plays before the score, Herbert was sacked on back-to-back plays.

Then, on the ensuing extra-point attempt, Los Angeles’s kick was blocked by Denico Autry behind the line of scrimmage.

Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker, perhaps misunderstanding the rules in the heat of the moment, tried to bat the ball down to end the play. But the ball was still live, and it was recovered by D’Angelo Ross, who then ran the ball back for a Texans score.

So instead of Los Angeles trailing 23-13 and needing only a touchdown and field goal to tie the game, it instead went down 25-12.

Texans running back Joe Mixon added another score with 3:42 left to make it 32-12.

The comfortable win capped a stunning turnaround for the Texans, who were shut out until less than a minute before halftime. They scored a quick 10 points to go up after the second quarter and never looked back.
