Say what you will about the Texans failings in various areas of the field, but at least they know how to beat AFC South teams. The Texans let the Jags mount a semi-comeback late to keep the game close but managed to close out a 24-21 win behind a Kareem Jackson pick-six and a big special teams play from Tyler Ervin.
The Texans started the game on a bright note after the Jaguars’ opening drive was stopped by a Kareem Jackson INT which he promptly returned for a TD to put the Texans ahead 7-0. The Texans then led their opening offensive drive down the field for a touchdown to TE Ryan Griffin.
