Jaguars losing to Texans will be ‘tough to bounce back from’ | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
Monday edition of PFT Live. The Jacksonville Jaguars, as we mentioned earlier, were up 29 to 10 in the fourth quarter and they shat the bed. Jackson Deville shat the bed in Houston. They No, he shat the bed. He’s supposed to shat the litter box. He shot the bed instead. And the Texans, to their credit, and I talked to Davis Mills after the game. He said Denil Hunter, star defensive end, kept saying to him, you know, we got a pretty good defense. Yeah. Like just keep doing what you’re doing, right? We’ll be fine. We’ll hold him. We’ll hold him to 29. And they did, right? And they did. And Davis Mills, it all clicked. And you know, it helped that he had the whole week to practice and prepare. And he talked about that helps to have Nico Collins healthy and available. And it was something. And that was just one of those where the Jaguars and the Jaguars are kind of that team where they will do dumb They will. They will and they will blow games they should win. Yeah. And they had an opportunity to kind of put a little bit of an imprint on the seven seed and now they’re going to have to sweat out the Texans. Well, definitely. They’re going to have to sweat out the Texans, the Chiefs, right? The Ravens. They’re all going to be there. That’s what’s going to make it interesting in the AFC. The Steelers who are going to be in that mix, too, I think eventually. No, they won’t. where they’re well there at least in the fighting for that last spot is what I’m saying there because that’s where it’s getting competitive. They’ll be fighting for it but they won’t be getting it. No. Well, and Houston, as you hear me say every week, that defense is good enough to almost win games by itself. And that’s what’s crazy about yesterday. Davis Mills to an interception on the third play of the game. Then then they get the field goal, the Jags, and then and then and then the Houston Texans fumble the kick return and they give the short field to the Jags again. So, it’s up 10 nothing. And then Parker Washington has a punt return and it makes it 17- nothing. Uh so yeah, I mean it was more Texans blunders early on in the football game than great execution by the Houston I mean by the Jacksonville Jaguars. And then even before the end of the half, it’s 20 to 10. Jacksonville’s got a chance to go down and get a field goal before the half. Trevor throws an interception to Derek Stingley. Right. The defense, they make some plays on the defensive side of the ball, but damn did they give up a lot of plays, too. Yeah, that was a bad win right there. That really was to be up 29 to 10 in the fourth quarter and let a Houston team and offense that as we know is not super explosive and great to put up that many points and yards to come back and beat you. Man, that’s one that’s almost you’re like I that’s going to be tough to bounce back from. Jack, it’s going to be very tough to bounce back from. And it was a season saver for the Houston. They needed that one badly. And Davis Mills, you know, he played a lot in 2022 when the Texans were just a dysfunctional Jack Easter mess, right? I think teams that are doing their long-term planning got to say, is this a guy that maybe could come in? Well, he could be a guy that at least, hey, let’s make him the bridge guy and then let’s see if he can be something, right? I mean, I don’t think you’re crazy with that. He’s definitely one of the better backups in football. That’s for sure. I mean, he really is. He’s big. He’s a better athlete than people realize. He doesn’t have a rocket laser arm, but you can see yesterday Reed’s coverages and can put the ball where he needs to put it. Scored the touchdown on the ground just like Caleb Williams. Same part of the field. Grand got the win and off they went. Hi, it’s Mike Florio. Thanks for watching PFT on YouTube. Hit subscribe for the latest news and analysis from Pro Football
With a shocking collapse fresh in mind for the Jaguars, Liam Coen’s squad will have to “sweat out” wins against contenders from here on out, while the Texans picked up a “season saver.” #NBCSports #NFL #ProFootballTalk

Jaguars choked 😂
As a Texans fan, I hope they don’t bring CJ back too soon. He should probably sit another game or eight. Just to be safe. 😂
Texans back to .500 this time next week?
Way to go Texans
For Jacksonville, the rest of the season needs to be about next year and the new regime seeing who is worth keeping around. They have already improved over last season and now need a plan to escape Trevor's nightmare contract.
0:49 That is the best way to describe the Jags. 😂😂😂
this was my first nfl game in person!
Bills and Chiefs will be the 5 and 6 seeds. The Chargers, Texans, Steelers, and Jaguars will be vying for the 7 seed. That's me assuming Baltimore takes the North and the 4 seed.
I love Trevor as a person, but SERIOUSLY question his game. He almost rarely puts up 250+ yard games now. It’s kinda infuriating.
The elephant in the room for jacksonville is Trevor Lawrence …. A starter how cant sustain a consistent drive for a first down if it's a throwing play!!!!….. Their defense stays on the field , Trevor lawrence's 3rd down conservation passing is awful!!!
At the beginning of every quarter they give odds for the game. It was like 5,000 to 1 for thebTexans to cover the 1.5. My buddy threw $20 at at the start of the 4th. Insanity.
Was at Reliant (NRG), yesterday. Those first 3 quarters were miserable, but that was one of the best 4th quarters I seen live in person
Run the ball and play Defense, game over
My life would be a lot more calmer if I wasn’t a jags fan
As a Texans fan was a massive win, as a loss would've ended any chances of playoffs (realistically) but the win not only gives us momentum but gives us a great chance to be .500 next week vs Titans
As for Mills, he's again shown himself to be a competent enough backup, was poor vs Broncos but they're a brilliant defence who make anyone look bad
As a Jags fan and to all teams: if you ever have any doubts about playing the Jags, do what Cincy and Houston do: play your back-up QB and victory will be served.
We probably lost davis mills as a back up in Houston after that game.. Will be a shame, but great for him!
As a jags fan I'd like to apologize to Mike Florio for ever doubting you. The jags are not to be taken seriously and we should have moved to London.
