jax always plays the texans well. always has. also, as i said, let's see how they do this weekend before deciding thier fate. maybe they are terrible with yates, but i think you are a bit quick to discount jax's defense. they were tackling well yesterday, and they have beaten both tenn and Baltimore this year. no doubt they are a terrible team, but those games show that they can get up for a game from time to time.
LZ was talking about the running issues this morning, and he said he went back and looked and jax wasn't doing anything unusual on defense (stacking the box, etc), the jax defensive line was just beating the o-line on most plays. which hasn't happened much this year. i think it is more likely that the running game will be 90% of what it was with schaub than like it was yesterday going forward.
like i said, i don't think they will be a big player in the playoffs, but you seem to be discounting the fact that the defense is going to keep the offense in games over the last part of the season, and i think saying they will most likley lose 3 of the next 4 is a bit pessimistic, though i completely understand why you would be.
