Jaguar vs Texans
At 4-7, both the Houston Texans and the Jacksonville Jaguars are virtually out of any playoff contention.

Tonight the Jags head to Reliant Stadium in Houston to take on the Texans. Odds makers are calling the Texans home favorites in this meeting between disappointing teams on the verge of elimination from postseason consideration. NFL Betting odds have the Texans at -3 with the total sitting 48.5.

The Jaguars won 11 games last season and beat the Steelers in a wild-card game before bounced out of the playoffs with a loss to the Patriots in the divisional game. It was the Jags' deepest playoff run since advancing to the AFC championship game in 1999.

Now they are in serious danger of their first losing record since
2003. A week ago against the Vikings, Jacksonville lost for the fourth time in five games. They turned the ball over five times, allowed four sacks, missed two field goals, and dropped a touchdown pass in their 30-12 loss.

"It was an embarrassing performance," said coach Jack Del Rio. "Might have been as bad as I've felt postgame."

The Texans snaps a three game losing streak last week against the Browns winning 16-6.

"It's a great feeling," said Texans quarterback Sage Rosenfels, who has three touchdowns and eight picks in his four starts. "It's a huge, huge win for us. Cleveland's a tough place to play. For us to come in here and play like this shows a lot about our players and our coaches."

The Texans have some momentum. Take Houston and give the 3 points at home.
