The Jacksonville Jaguars spent the offseason making upgrades to their roster. Nevertheless, it wasn’t enough and ended up losing 37-21 to the Houston Texans in Week 1 of the regular season.

The Jags entered the game as a 3.0 point favorite to win but looked outcoached on both sides of the ball. You could argue that they’re a young team but so are the Texans. In fact, the Jags’ loss becomes even more frustrating when you take into account that the Texans weren’t able to make as many offseason upgrades as Jacksonville due to their lack of cap space and picks early in the draft.
