Jaguars want to finish strong by beating Texans

Published: Dec 28, 2010 at 03:57 PM

The storyline
The Jags have tumbled late again, but could still get in with a victory and a Colts loss. This is a matchup of two division rivals that just can't get over the hump.

Why you should watch
This is likely Gary Kubiak's final game with Texans (he's just their second coach). MJD might be back for the Jaguars. Andre Johnson might be back for the Texans. The Jags' late-game mojo has fizzled, but could they pull off their greatest comeback yet to actually win the division?

Did you know?
The Jaguars have beaten the Texans three consecutive times. ... Jacksonville's David Garrard is third in the NFL with a 108.3 fourth-quarter passer rating. ... Texans quarterback Matt Schaub has 300-plus passing yards in four consecutive games. ... Houston's Neil Rackers has made 51 consecutive field goals from inside 45 yards.
