The 5-6 Texans head off to Jacksonville this Sunday to play the Jaguars. The bad news for the Texans is that they are on a 3 game losing streak.... The good news is that the Kubiak regime is 10-5 in December (4-1 in 2008). The Texans are 2-4 in games decided by a touchdown or less.
The 6-5 Jags themselves have had a bit of an up and down year and play their best when at home. They are 5-1 in games decided by a touchdown or less. Oddsmakers currently have the game tottering as a "pick'em". The announcers will be ItB favorites Gus Johnson and Steve Tasker. CBS @ noon Sunday Last edited by Arky; 12-01-2009 at 06:20 PM. |

All we gotta do this week is the team gets their head on right, doesn't make the dumb inexcusable idiotic penalties and dumb poor read turnovers, and figures out how to play on every play four quarters, we should have a good shot at a win. or else. I still think they can make it atleast to 9-7 and play for 10-6 against NE, then we'll see.

I think it may be. I can remember that Tasker has seen some pretty lousy Texan performances in the past before. I'm not sure if he was paired with Gus Johnson at the time or not...
Johnson/Tasker is like the bottom rung for CBS. There have been some weekends this year when they didn't even work - not enough games to go round. ![]() But Gus can be very entertaining sometimes and though I didn't like Tasker too much at first, he's kind of grown on me.... Since they get the Texans a lot, I like that they are, at least, familiar with the team... ![]() |

The good news about this game is that we have 3 road wins this year.... We suck at home.

After feeling "relatively" confidant about our changes in the Colts game, now I have no idea, no feel for this upcoming game except to wonder if the
team is still into the season or is it now past tense to them ? Therefor it will be interestifng to see what their energy level is in FLA Sunday when they hit the field ? |

Vegas seems to have some confidence in the Texans. Also, tarps don't wager, so maybe that's a factor, too. |

Shocker, the game will be blacked out in J-Ville. There is no home field advantage so even if the few Hags fans that have their own teeth actually try to make noise, it should not be an issue for the offense.
I might try to get a cheap last minute ticket and fly out to support the guys. The CBS JV crew will probably not have a ton of cameras, making challenges interesting. http://www.jaguars.com/news/article.aspx?id=8513

Jacoby Jones missed the flight. not a good behavior at all. He's a contributor, but no excuse. What I heard, from Jacoby's side, he was late for preflight meeting by 10 minutes due to ice on the bridges , but Kubiak was upset, or wanted to send a message that need to be there, and told him to go home. not that he missed the flight.

One of the things to win this game is we need to stop MJD running with our defense.
And, with Slayton out, perhaps Chris Bown and Moats need to have a good running day for our side. No turnovers by anybody, or atleast not on our side of 50 yard line would for sure help a bunch. Be nice to see less dumb penalties. Maybe coach needs to sit guys for a while if they do one of those dumb penalties. |

Don't forget to set your DVRs.....
Dang, JJ needs to leave the house earlier.... In other NFL games, I'm not sure who I want to lose more in Colts vs. Titans.... |

Houston win the toss and defers.
Jags bring the kickoff back to their 19. MJD TFL -2. Brings up 2nd and 12. Pass to Wolford good for 7. 3rd and 5 coming up. Pass to Thomas good and he reaches for the 1st down. Pass to Lewis big gainer - 47 yards. Ball at the Texan 24. MJD for 1. Brings up 2nd and 9. 2nd down pass is batted down by Cody. 3rd and 9 coming up. Garrard is smoked by several for a sack. A Smith gets the credit. -10. Jags to attempt the 51 yard FG. FG is good. Jags 3, Texans 0 |

Busing looked pwned by Lewis on that deep gainer.
Texans got the big sack on third down to push the FG back to 51 yards, which looks like the 11th sack allowed by the Jags this year. Telling stat not just for the Jags o-line, but for David Garrard. He is usually a pretty smart QB that doesn't lose a lot games for his team with dumb decisions. |

Correction: Barwin and Smith get credit for .5 sack each on previous series.
Kickoff by the Jags sails out of the endzone so Texans ball at the 20. On 1st down, Schaub sacked for -2. Schaub shaken up. Grossman in. 2nd down pass goes inc. Oh no, Grossman's 3rd down pass is tipped downfield and INT'ed by the Jags who bring it all the way back to the Texan 18. |

And the Cannon is in.
If Schaub is out for the game, he is going to ruin more than a few fantasy games this weekend. ...and Rex is bound to do the same to the Texans. Picked already! |
