I could have sworn in 2020 they had to gain yards in the final 2 minutes or the clock stopped, which essentially ended kneeling the game out. Tonight Houston kneeled at the end though. I was happy to see it end as I had the under, but I’m pretty sure this was a rule change.

Yeah, before there was no advantage in kneeling as the clock would stop for each play w/in the last 2 mins of play. They got rid of that time rule and now w/in the last 2 mins kneeling won't stop the clock. So now to stop the clock w/in last 2 mins you may throw incomplete pass, get out of bounds, or make first down (this one is only applicable w/in last 2 mins).
