any score wins the game here. luck had it in hand. >> referee: we are in actual sudden death, the next score wins. >> al: already. as we know. plenty of drama here. and plenty of drama in a few living rooms, as well. you know what i mean and i know you do. here we go. at the 33 yard line. off the play fake. osweil osweiler, has time. and over the middle to the 41 yard line. that's fiedorowicz who scored the game-tying touchdown. geathers makes the stop. gain of nine, second and one. >> cris: i would give osweiler the advice of work the other guys. he just stared at deandre of kins for three seconds and came off. the other guys started the other drive. come back to him. >> al: adams had to come out.

he's back in. fiedorowicz moving around. the toss to lamar miller. lamar miller takes the ball into indices territory to the 49 yard line. tackled by mcnary. and lamar miller, 23 carries 149 yards. one rushing t.d. and one receiving t.d. >> cris: they get the big guy, clark, out in front of this thing. and you have to remember that fatigue becomes a real factor here. when these guys have to run sideline-to-sideline, as they did there, it takes a lot out of the pass rush. >> al: this time, he is stopped at the line of scrimmage, as the former dolphin. morris makes the stop. here's michele. >> michele: nick novak and i spoke before the game. he said anything inside 58, he felt good about. but let's remember, he missed wide to the right five times in the pregame, as well as missing the extra point. a little shaky for novak.

>> al: it would have made it 13-10. instead, it was 13-9. of course, that turned out to be very big. second down and ten. from the 49 yard line. osweiler, deep down the left sideline. jaelen strong, huge gains against indianapolis. he has done it again. he has been silent tonight. he beats rashaan melvin, and stays inbounds. 36 yards. >> cris: for brock osweiler, he's finally done it. he finally broke away from having to totally rely on these moments on deandre hopkins. comes back the other way. and jaelen strong delivers. that's a fantastic catch. >> al: strong had three t.d.s, as a rookie last year. all of them, against indianapolis. now, clearly, in field goal range. os wiler will take a time-out.

just calm it down. don't do anything silly. >> cris: before you go in shotgun and make another throw, we have our shot right here. nothing wrong with the coverage by melvin. at the point of attack. it was jaelen strong, a guy that had to play 81% of the time this season because of injuries in there. his real role is outside. and he just showed you why. what a play. >> al: the colt killer. >> cris: brock osweiler, you have to give him credit. every time he's had a chance, he was down to his last chance. once. twice. and during regulation. and now, gets it back and does

it again. >> al: they were booing him and the offense, now on the cusp of erasing a 14-point deficit and winning the game in overtime. he wants to move it to the hash mark that's most beneficial. novak wanted it on the right hash. he puts it there for him. and here comes novak, for what will be about a 34-yard field goal attempt. make it 33. >> cris: that's the extra point, right? >> al: that is the extra point that was missed. three overtime field goals, in the eight-plus seasons in the nfl. >> cris: just so dangerous to leave an nfl game early. >> al: i'm sure they're enjoying it on the radio. 33-yarder to win the game.

which he does. what a comeback. what a dispiriting loss for the colts. ready to go in a tie for the division, and houston goes to 4-2. they're 4-0 at home. mr. osweiler pays his first big dividend on that $72 million deal. andrew luck had none at all, at the end. luck, that is. and the indianapolis colts will limp home, with a mark of 2-4, two games behind their top rival. so, novak missed a 33-yarder. and then, made the big 33-yarder, to put this game in the over territory. on both levels. and pushed them to a record of

4-2. lamar miller, what a night for him. frank gore, well, he had that 100-yard night. but loses the game. 26-23, texans in overtime. volkswagen postgame report coming your way next. enjoy your phone! you too.

welcome to "the volkswagen golf postgame report." mike tirico. >> what a stunning turnaround. the texans rail 23-9, with less than three minutes left. they rally to beat indianapolis, and alone atop the afc south 26-23. two sides of this one. just a crushing loss for the colts, looking to get everybody to three losses in this division. an they could not perform on the offensive end, or down on defense. but for the texans, lamar miller's good play and brock osweiler, the two off-season big additions, paid dividends tonight. as the sunday night bus goes around the country, you'll see the performances of this evening. remember, they are the players of the game. miller and osweiler get game balls.

and speak with michele tafoya. >> mike, thank you. brock, 3-0, in overtime. what is it about this situation that helps you to thrive? >> michele, it's not me. it's the teammates that are around me. you know, what these guys did tonight, is truly unbelievable. the defense kept us in the game. we struggled early offensively. we never quit fighting. lamar made an excellent play. everybody kept fighting. it's truly the teammates around me. i'm blessed for that. >> bill o'brien told me at halftime, he had no idea how this offense was going to get going. but somehow you guys found a way. what do you think was the turning point? >> we used the term, keep chumping. keep fighting, keep chomping. there was a couple of plays in the third quarter, where lamar and the offensive line created huge runs.

that's what really got this offense going. >> this was a monumental moment for you. the crowd was booing this offense in the first half. to turn it around the way you did, what does it mean to you personally? >> i hope everybody hangs around for all four quarters next time. i can promise you one thing, this team will never stop fighting. >> you are heading to denver next week, what do you think this week is going to be like before you head back to the place that drafted you? >> it is all about taking the emotion out. i have nothing but love and respect for the city of denver, the organization. my teammates. it's take the emotion out, have a normal work week. and prepare for a great team. >> congratulations, brock. let's go to lamar miller. lamar, two touchdowns. one of them, you danced. and we measured it. it was 50 yards you had to run around before you got to the end zone. how would you describe how that play unfolded? >> i think brock did a great job of, you know, just getting the ball to me.

you know, i just try to make a play for this team. >> you also like to make plays in front of a guy you could call your mentor, frank gore. he had a nice night tonight, as well. how motivating was it for you to play in front of him? >> it was a lot of motivation for me. every time he made a big play, you know, it gave me that boost to, you know, want to make a big play to compete against him. i think the offensive line, they did a great job, you know, opening up holes for me. i would try to go up and make plays. >> congratulations on the win, lamar. >> thank you. >> michele, great stuff. two terrific performances. i want to bring tony dungy in. coach, we can go over osweilers number. 14 of 17. made the throws and had to make the touchdown to fiedorowicz. did you see the reaction of his teammates in the interview with michele? you get the sense this is more than just one win at the end of the year for brock osweiler and the texans. >> it really is, mike.

just really probably a landmark win. they're down 14 points, nothing is going right. comeback and win it. you saw that emotion. and that energy. so, it was huge, just the fact that they have confidence in their leader. then, the second part of it is, you have to look at how it's unfolded. at home. division win. this is going to be so big down the stretch if you get into tiebreaker situations. stealing this win was huge. a big, big night for them. other side of the coin, though. how crushing is this for the colts? to play well but really have their defense really come apart in the last three drives. they're going to have a lot of work to do to recover from this one. >> 2-4, at tennessee next sunday. want to bring in mike florio from profootballtalk.com. ben roethlisberger who injured his knee in the loss at miami, get us updated on big ben's injury. >> well, mike, they did an mri on sunday evening.

it revealed a torn meniscus. he will have surgery on monday. how long he will be out remains to be seen. they host the patriots, then a bye, then, the ravens. he's expected to not play sunday, beyond that, it remains to be seen. >> a big loss for the steelers, with that game against the pats coming up. jay ajayi, a guest with mike tomorrow on profootballtalk live. and von miller is a guest on tuesday. al and cris to wrap it up in a moment.

he is. snap down. the kick from hauschka is up. plenty of leg. and it is good. >> before we preview next week, just one other note here. the colts had won their last 41 regular season road games, in which they had a fourth quarter lead. they hadn't lost one of these games in ten years, in the regular season. the last time, though, in the playoffs was '08. that was tony dungy's last game. and that sent tony to football night in america. we won that one. it's been ten years since they coughed up a fourth quarter lead in a regular season game. >> it was stunning, it was, to see the texans turn around their offensive night because they were struggling. >> arizona plays tomorrow night against the jets. meanwhile, seattle, it was a tough one today. they missed hauschka missed the extra point. the field goal, come from behind, after they coughed up the lead. we see arizona next week. >> you are talking about one of the hottest teams in football.

julio jones and matt ryan. and those guys were on fire. once again, seattle's defense, when they had to make plays, made the plays to win it. >> and the houston texans pedestrian made the plays they needed to win tonight. overcoming a 14-point deficit in the last three minutes of the game. win it in overtime by a score of 26-23. except on the west coast next, it will be your late local news. for now, al, cris, michele, mike and all of the gang, freddie and drew and the guys downstairs, saying good night from nrg stadium in houston. nbc sports thanks you for watching this special presentation of the national football league.

hi everybody. it's xfinity sports sunday. we have a lot to get to. raiders hosting the chiefs. on a rainy day in oakland. and the raiders looking to start the season 5-1 for the first

time since 2001. 62 degrees. and wind also. del rio suited up for the weather. first drive of the game, derek carr finding cooper between the hash marks. 19 yard pickup. so the raiders are off to a good start. four plays later, raiders with third and goal, carr connects with andre holmes in the back of the end zone. this was a great play, a great throw. it could only be in one place. >> that's right. how he was able to come down with it and get his feet down, fantastic play. >> 7-0 raiders on top. next raiders possession. carr looking for crabtry. crabtry having a good year. picked off by marcus peters. his fifth interception of the season. leads the league. on the ensuing possession, chiefs have a first and goal and

spencer wear runs in for a touchdown. now we have a tie football game. second quarter, jamaal charles getting back to 100% after tearing his acl last season. and look out. that is a big gap. 17-yard run. three plays later, chiefs with first and goal. charles runs it into the end zone. first touchdown since week three of last season. 13-7 chiefs after the missed extra point. third quarter. spencer air finds room along the left side of the field. and that is a 45-yard gain. bad defense there. >> it was. sean smith had the edge, and gave it up. >> three plays later, third and goal. defensive tackle. poe in. 6'3", 347 pounds. beefy. of course he is getting the ball. second career touchdown. raiders defense under the

weather today. chiefs win, 26-10. jack del rio, what do you have? >> we are not playing very well right now. we have got teach it better, we have got to learn it better and we've got to do it better. >> yeah, it hurts. you know, especially a division game, especially against the chiefs. it hurts, man. you know, it sucks. we didn't do good enough at all. i mean, that was bad. >> i made some good plays today and that's our job, to stop them. and you know, we didn't do that. i mean, they came out on top. they won. they won this one today. and we've just got to -- like i say, come in, watch film, see what we messed up on and continue to get better each week. >> they do a lot of window dressing. you know, they did a lot of stuff disguising stuff to make us believe one thing and they actually did the other thing. i think they played a hell of a

game. just messed up. everything falls back on us, we've got to try to fix and it get better. >> they could have been 5-1 for the first time since 20016789 dodge player of the day brought to you by the dodge challenger, car made for driving in california. smith. nine games versus the raiders, thrown for eight touchdowns. only three interceptions. why is alec smith so good when he plays the oakland raiders? >> number one, he is a great game manager. and you know, with that, he doesn't make a lot of mistakes. and then you have got to look at over the last ten years or so, the raiders haven't been very good on defense. >> there is that. >> so that combination has led to a great record against them. >> when you say game manager,

right, they used to say that in san francisco about him and some people thought of it as a putdown. do you say it as a compliment? >> i say it a little bit of both is why. because he's not a guy that's going to take over a game and win it for you. he's just not going to lose it for you. >> the raiders right now on the verge of doing things they haven't done in quite some time. >> yeah. >> i think jack del rio in his post game felt like one got away. why couldn't they close it out today? >> they came out flat in the second half. to win in the nfl, you have got play for four quarters. they played for two quarters. it was close at halftime. and they came out dead in the second half. >> is that just -- do you blame that on coaching? just sometimes does that happen in the 16-game schedule? how do you account for that? >> i think everybody in that locker room, everybody in that organization, has got to hold themselves accountable. and everybody's got to get

better. >> it's bad weather today. that affects both teams equally. does that play a role in anything in a game like this, though? >> no, i don't think it does because it's raining on both sidelines. so they both have to deal with it. they just dealt with it better than we did. >> okay. good stuff as always from bill. when we come back we go to the team on the other side of the bay. we'll look at collin kaepernick's season debut as the 49ers starting quarterback. that's coming up next on xfinity sports sunday. i'm terry mcsweeney. coming up immediately after xfinity sports sunday, the rain reeked havoc on the bay area today including the oakland cole see yum. we'll have an update four including the serious concern in the santa cruz mountains. thanks to storm ranger our live mobile doppler radar, coming up on nbc bay area news.
