Official Texans @ Jaguars Game Thread, 12/17/2017

[Arky]

The 4-9 Houston Texans travel to Jacksonville this Sunday to play the division leading 9-4 Jaguars in an early game this Sunday. The Texans are coming off a 26-16 home loss to the San Francisco 49ers and the Jags are coming off a 30-24 home win over the Seattle Seahawks. The Jags are 6-1 in their last seven games.

If the Texans can keep the turnovers, penalties and injuries down, they can possibly make it a close game.

Note: Two Saturday games on NFLN this weekend.
