Game: Houston Texans (5-3) at Jacksonville Jaguars (2-6)

Outlook: The Houston Texans just got a week off after a win over the Detroit Lions. They are sitting in first place in the AFC South and can extend their lead. That is of course if they can get their first road win of the season.

This game seems like a good spot for them to do just that. They’re taking on the nearly lifeless Jacksonville Jaguars, who have just two wins on the season.

Hopefully the team took the bye week to get quarterback Brock Osweiler on the same page as his receivers, because they simply look off. Should they be able to get things going, that could make this game an easy one for Houston.

If they can’t get their passing game going, this could still go down as a win, it just won’t be as one sided. Houston has enough with Lamar Miller and their defense can slow down the one-dimensional Jags long enough to get a win.

Prediction: Houston: 23, Jacksonville: 13
