Houston isn’t a perfect team by any means, but it still has found ways to win. While the Texans are winless on the road, that was against the likes of Denver, Minnesota and New England. Jacksonville is a far cry from those teams. The Jaguars haven’t showing anything to be excited about this season and are likely to struggle against this Houston defense.
