Bengals vs. Texans: Live Score, Video and Analysis of AFC Wild Card Game

The Houston Texans have won their franchise's first ever playoff game 31-10 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

There is no doubt this game changed directions immediately after the huge pick six from rookie DE J.J. Watt toward the end of the second half.

That gave Houston the lead going into the second half and they never looked back.

Offensively, the Texans were lead by Arian Foster and Andre Johnson.

Foster ran for 153 yards on 24 carries and two TD.

He used his patented reads on stretch plays to make quick cuts back up the field on play after play to just tear a part this Bengals offense.

Andre Johnson added a TD of his own and five receptions for 90 yards. Johnson just cooked CB Adam Jones on the double move to get wide open for rookie QB T.J. Yates (11-20 159 yards, 1 TD).

On defense, Houston was absolutely suffocating.

They forced three interceptions from rookie QB Andy Dalton (27-42, 257 yards, 0 TD) and sacked him four times.

The Texans also stuffed the Bengals rushing attack to just 76 yards on 19 carries.

The defensive line really shined for Houston as Antonio Smith, Earl Mitchell, and J.J. Watt had three of the four sacks between them and Watt had the pick six.

Brian Cushing was his usual self, showing the nation he is a Pro-bowler with his team leading eight tackles. He was key in the rush defense for Houston today.

Now the Texans will move onto the play the Baltimore Ravens for an opportunity to play for an AFC conference title.

Final score: Cincinnati Bengals 10, Houston Texans 31.
