Overview

  • The Browns erased a 17-point deficit and beat the Texans 27-24 on Sunday when Quinshon Judkins scored a five-yard touchdown with 53 seconds left.
  • Deshaun Watson completed 25 of 40 passes for 312 yards, rushed for 50 yards including a six-yard TD, and engineered the final drive that set up the winning score.
  • C.J. Stroud finished 20 of 38 for 211 yards with three touchdowns and one interception, and Nico Collins had nine catches for 94 yards and a TD.
  • Houston lost momentum after a dominant early showing and will enter a short week ahead of Thursday’s game at Indianapolis, while Cleveland goes into its Week 11 bye at 6-4.
  • The win continued a season-long pattern for the Browns of late comebacks and sharpened the quarterback narrative of Watson succeeding against his former team.
