Official Texans vs. Jaguars Game Thread, 9/12/2021

[nunusguy]

The Dallas Winbags, the only football team in the entire state of Texas out of contention longer than the Houston Texans, played TB12 & the Bucs real tough last night and gotta hand it to the team from North Texas for putting
up a good fight. Of course they won the all important turnover battel which was due in some part to their own efforts.
I'm just real happy the NFL season is back and I look forward to what looks to be some really interesting matchups Sunday afternoon.
Jags favored by three which obviously implies the Texans should be in the game.

Texans in the all-whites/blue helmets today.

Texans get the ball first.

And a 3 and out.

You can't stop the Texans - you can only hope to contain them.

Ingram runs one in from 1 yard.

J Slye substituting for Fairbairn today. Extra point good.

Texans 14, Jags 0

2:25 left in the 1st qtr.

Have to be satisfied with the start of Tyrod Taylor. After a near INT on his first attempt, he has shown some good poise and pocket mobility, decent zip on his throws.

Mark Ingram is running downhill with authority. Tytus and Tunsil on the left side are taking care of some bidness.

[Arky]

With a little help from a Texan penalty, the Jags answer with a drive and Lawrence hits Manhertz for the last 22 yards.

Texans 14, Jags 7

12:20 left in the half.

[Arky]

Joey Slye is good from 40 yards for a Texan FG.

Texans 17, Jags 7

8:07 left in the half.

Tyrod not doing too bad. A little off on a few passes but doing well....

[Arky]

Jags backed up and Lawrence throws the INT to Hargreaves. Texans set up at the Jag 7 yard line.

Now, 2nd and goal from the 7 yard line at the 2 minute warning.

Texans have to settle for a Slye 26 yard FG.

Texans 20, Jags 7

59 seconds left in the half.
