The 1-6 Houston Texans head to Jacksonville, FL to take on the 1-6 Jaguars this Sunday in an early game on CBS. Both teams are coming off their bye week. QB Gardner Minshew II has a thumb injury and will be sidelined. HC Doug Marrone has decided to take a look at 6th rd draft pick QB Jake Luton (Ore. St.) instead of going with backup Mike Glennon. The Texan defense is not very good against the run and can expect to see a lot of Jags RB James Robinson. The Texan offense has been inconsistent to say the least. It would be nice to see them put a full game game together and minimize the errors.....
The Texans have an excellent opportunity to get win #2 here if the defense doesn't blow it. I've got it:
Texans 28, Jags 17
