Flop by Texans cost Chiefs a kickoff return touchdown | The KC Star
"(James) knew he was outflanked, so he literally flopped," Reid said. "Nelson put his hands out, put him down and the kid just jumped into his body. Obviously from the officials' perspective it didn't look like that."

Reid found another bright spot in the team’s at-times maligned run defense. The Chiefs held Houston to just 97 yards on 34 carries, a scant 2.9-yard average. "I thought we did a respectable job there," Reid said. "Are there a few calls we’d like to have back? Yeah. I thought we played on the other side of the ball. The linebackers filled the gaps well and we tackled well."

"I thought last week he looked good (in practice)," Reid said. "Last week you could see him getting in and out of his cuts. It looked like Jamaal. It’s a matter of the endurance part of it and his security in how he feels about the leg and then what the (doctors) say.

Snap Counts: Houston Texans vs. Kansas City Chiefs | Battle Red Blog
The Texans' defense has been know for its multiple looks over the past few seasons, but this week's defensive mentality was clearly to have five plus players drop into coverage with a pass rush of mainly Clowney, Watt and Wilfork get after Alex Smith. These nickel and dime looks paid off by restricting Chiefs TE Travis Kelce and forcing Alex Smith to beat the Texans with his arm. Considering the success of the scheme against a less than excellent QB, it might be worth looking at for the Texans' upcoming contest with rookie QB Jacoby Brissett and the Patriots.
