Texans vs. Colts: Wild Card Playoffs TV schedule, radio, live stream, where to watch
The Houston Texans are hosting an AFC Wild Card game on Saturday. Here is how to view and listen to the game against the Indianapolis Colts.
Wild Card weekend is near ever so close and for the Houston Texans there is a lot to look forward to as they get the chance to prove they can defeat the Indianapolis Colts in the third matchup with everything on the line this time.
The Texans won the first meeting back in late September when they won in overtime by a 37-34 score. Remember that is the game when Colts head coach Frank Reich gave the Texans a gift and didn’t settle for a tie in overtime. That is when the Texans took advantage of that decision and eventually won with a field goal.

Indianapolis won the second matchup in December where they won by a 24-21 score. Since then the Colts have been on a very solid streak of well-played football with the Colts winning nine of their past 10 games.
Both teams are coming off wins in Week 17 when the Texans clinched the AFC South championship with a 20-3 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Colts made the playoffs in a winner-take-all game against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday Night Football to earn the No. 6 seed by a 33-17 score.
The Texans (11-5) have had their issues with the Colts (10-6) this season, as Indianapolis has sacked Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson on 12 occasions this season, including seven times back in their first game on Sept. 30.
We all know the Colts will get pressure on the Texans quarterback this Saturday. It would be nice to see the offensive line keep some of that pressure off Watson, while the quarterback himself makes a few faster decisions so he doesn’t take the sack.
