It was one of the most crucial tackles of the Texans' season.
On fourth and 7 at the Texans' 47-yard line in the final minutes Thursday night, Texans outside linebacker Brennan Scarlett managed to escape a block from Indianapolis Colts All-Pro offensive guard Quenton Nelson.
Scarlett reversed directions and sprinted over to tackle scrambling Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett just shy of the first-down marker.
Because of Scarlett's clutch stop to preserve the game, the Texans got the football back and managed to pull out a 20-17 victory that propelled them into first place in the AFC South division.
