Texans vs. Jags got to be the biggest sucker bet this weekend..

Texans been sliding down a slippery slope and they are a -1 favorite against a division opponent they lost earlier this season?

If you are backing the Texans, please tell me what you are smoking cause I want some too.

What a trap game here.........

Superior schedule last 4 on the road +12.5 adv in opponents power rating...ah they wouldnt understand

could have won = they lost

The Texans stink.  I don't know how they recover from blowing a third consecutive very winnable game.  They were 5-3 and feeling pretty good about themselves and now they're 5-6 and that has to be totally depressing, to think you've turned the corner only to realize you're still the same old Texans.  They must've been walking around like zombies this week, incredulous at the way in which they totally blew their home game against the mighty Colts for the second straight year.  Does anyone remember the incredible choke job last season against the Colts?  And now they pretty much did it again.  How do they recover from that? 

Just shocking how many ppl think this Texans is a decent team. They are god awful and Mario Williams is overrated. His sackes don't come til the end of the season when teams don't give a F.

Texans have no defense and the running game only avg. 3.4 ypc = worst in the NFL.

Slaton won't be playing so Moats will be starting along with C. Brown.

I just don't see how the Texans can win this game on the road. They are just a bad, bad team.

SF have been playing very well with Alex Smith behind the helm and their Run Defense shuts offenses down in their backyard.

I don't see the Texans Run Defense shutting down the Jags at all. Jags have a better chance at the Wild Card than the Texans and will win both teams this yr. against the Texans IMO.

TEXANS = can't Stop Jags Run will score plenty....JAGS = can't stop Spread Off.(see 9er gm stats) will score plenty!!!!

play the OVER!!!!!

They lost 3 key players today: Slaton, Daniels and Jacoby Jones - their big return man.

When you have the worst rush offense in the NFL at 3.4ypc and you go play on the road............hmmmmmmmm.

Texans are 1 dimensional.

finally a sensible arguement in this thread.

Both teams have underperformed this season.  O.D's injury has impacted this offense and while they are exlosive at times on O , i hate the coaching.

Speaking of which Del Rio has made some bad decisions as well like limited MJD in certain games especailly when the opponent has been a losing team.

Tough game to pick a winner but one of thhese tema s needs to give the game away.

I prefer to stick with a home team that can run the ball against a team that has problems stopping thr run and is a passing team without a run game.

Jags for me or no play

Look at the last loss to the Jags, they lost by one touchdown and had a fumble on the 1 yard line by the backup RB, Chris Brown. This will not happen again.

You say the Texans have no defense, but have you ever heard of the names Brian Cushing, Demeco Ryans, Dante Robinson, and even Antonio Smith and Pollard are playing well. Granted Mario Williams hasn't lived up to his full potential this season, but Texans still have a good defense with few weakpoints.

It is easy to talk them down after these recent losses, but look at the injury of Owen Daniels arguably one of the best TE in the game. Just imagine where the Colts would be without Dallas Clark this season.

This is one of the most explosive offenses in the league, even without Owen Daniels. They are hungry for blood and this team is used to close losses against GREAT teams, they will shake off last week. If Shaub can limit turnovers and Kubiak can learn how to use the clock, Texans win this easy. By the way Moats has proved he has skills, lately he has been a Slaton that doesn't fumble.

Houston will win this matchup.

Not talking up the Jags, just stating the FACTS. Texans been sliding? YES, Jags been winning at home? YES...how's that talking up the Jags?

All the names you mentioned.......all good players but the key word is "YOUNG" good players. They are going through growing pains and making alot of mistakes on DEFENSE. What do YOUNG good players do? They play 2 good quarters and stink the other 2. Texans will be great in a few yrs as they are rebuilding that DEFENSE...all the names you mentioned will be great players 4-5 yrs down the road.

Texans win easy? Is that why the spread is only -1???? IN a game where the public expect a split this season and the biggest game for them this season? Texans know if they lose today,,,their playoffs hope is GONE....Too much pressure for a young team on the road vs. Jags who have shown they can win at home.

BOL...
