Despite coming off a 40-7 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6, a game in which the Jacksonville Jaguars were favored, the team heads back home to TIAA Bank Field as five point favorites over the Houston Texans. That the Jaguars are favorites isn’t much of a surprise, but that it’s nearly a touchdown is what makes it a little eyebrow raising.
The Houston Texans have rallied from and 0-3 start and won three games in a row, though all three have been by one-score margins and their most recent win over the Buffalo Bills was thanks to a Nathan Peterman pick six with under two minutes left.
