JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (4-9) 7 10 7 3 – 27<br />
HOUSTON TEXANS (2-10) 0 7 10 3 – 20<br />
Claiming their third consecutive victory and first home win of the season,<br />
the Jaguars downed Houston 27-20 for their third division win in four weeks<br />
and first sweep of the Texans since 2009. In their only prime time game the<br />
Jaguars relied on a fast start for a 14-0 lead, their largest of the season.<br />
Maurice Jones-Drew turned in his first 100-yard rushing game of the year<br />
and the defense got three sacks and two interceptions to improve to 4-9<br />
with four wins in five weeks. For the fourth time in those five weeks the<br />
Jaguars scored a touchdown on their opening possession, with Chad Henne<br />
driving the offense 80 yards in 13 plays and hitting Marcedes Lewis with a<br />
one-yard scoring pass. While the defense forced Houston to punt on its first<br />
three possessions, the Jaguars scored again to make it 14-0 on their third<br />
series, which covered 86 yards in just four plays including two Houston<br />
penalties, ending with a six-yard catch by Cecil Shorts in the end zone. The<br />
Texans scored in the final two minutes of the first half on a Case Keenumto-Keshawn<br />
Martin pass, but on their next possession Keenum was intercepted<br />
by Alan Ball. That turnover led to a Josh Scobee 40-yard field goal to<br />
give Jacksonville a 17-7 halftime lead. A Texans field goal in the third<br />
period was followed by an Ace Sanders touchdown pass to Jordan Todman,<br />
giving Jacksonville a two-touchdown lead at 24-10. Late in the third quarter<br />
Matt Schaub replaced Keenum and he promptly marched the Texans 76 yards<br />
in seven plays, with his five-yard touchdown pass to Garrett Graham narrowing<br />
the lead to seven at 24-17. Randy Bullock’s second field goal got<br />
Houston closer early in the fourth period and on their next series the Texans<br />
threatened, using 14 plays to move 67 yards to the Jacksonville 12-yard line,<br />
but a failed fourth-down play ended the possession. Houston got the ball<br />
back with 2:21 remaining and no timeouts, but Schaub was intercepted by<br />
Geno Hayes to set up Scobee’s 39-yard field goal for a 27-20 lead with 20<br />
second left. Ryan Davis sacked Schaub on Houston’s next play to end the<br />
game. The Jaguars rushed for a season-high 149 yards, including Jones-<br />
Drew’s 103 with a 48-yard run. Andre Johnson, who was held to two catches<br />
earlier by the Jaguars defense, finished with 13 receptions for 154 yards but<br />
no touchdowns. Houston was penalized 14 times for 177 yards including 10<br />
for 115 in the first half.<br />

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (4-10) 3 7 3 7 – 20<br />
BUFFALO BILLS (5-9) 3 17 0 7 – 27<br />
An ominous beginning portended a loss in which the Jaguars committed a<br />
season-high four turnovers, falling at home to the Bills 27-20. On the third<br />
play of the game Chad Henne was intercepted by Aaron Williams, and the<br />
34-yard return set up Buffalo at the Jacksonville 25. The defense held the<br />
Bills to a field goal, which is what the Jaguars got after their first takeaway<br />
two series later following Geno Hayes’ interception and 28-yard return to the<br />
Buffalo 33. The second quarter saw four scores with Henne throwing to Ace<br />
Sanders for a 12-yard touchdown, matched by EJ Manuel’s seven-yard scoring<br />
pass to Robert Woods, capping a 94-yard drive, to make it 10-10 midway<br />
through the period. Buffalo took a 17-10 lead on its next possession on a<br />
Manuel eight-yard run, and after a Mike Brown fumble the Bills added a<br />
40-yard field goal for a 20-10 halftime lead after scoring on three consecutive<br />
possessions to end the half. The second half began like the first for<br />
Jacksonville, with a turnover, when Denard Robinson ran 24 yards to the<br />
Buffalo one-yard line before fumbling into the end zone for a touchback.<br />
After forcing a Buffalo punt the Jaguars got within seven points on Josh<br />
Scobee’s 55-yard field goal, his longest of the season. The Jaguars defense<br />
got its second takeaway on the Bills’ next series when Winston Guy sacked<br />
Manuel and forced a fumble, which Sen’Derrick Marks recovered. The 55-yard<br />
drive capped by a 13-yard catch by Marcedes Lewis tied the score at 20-20<br />
a minute into the fourth quarter. But the Bills quickly answered, marching<br />
80 yards in nine plays to take a 27-20 lead on Manuel’s one-yard toss to<br />
Frank Summers with 9:35 remaining in the game. The Jaguars responded,<br />
driving 75 yards in 15 plays to the Buffalo five-yard line. On third-and-goal<br />
Henne threw into the end zone but was picked off by Stephon Gilmore with<br />
3:15 left. The Bills stopped the Jaguars on four downs on their final possession<br />
to seal the win. Jordan Todman, replacing the injured Maurice Jones-<br />
Drew, made his first career start and recorded his first 100-yard game with<br />
109 yards on 25 carries and 44 yards on four receptions. Henne turned in his<br />
third straight game with multiple touchdown passes, and Marcedes Lewis<br />
had his third straight game with a touchdown catch. The Jaguars were without<br />
four starters, with Cecil Shorts III, Will Rackley and Johnathan Cyprien<br />
joining Jones-Drew on the sidelines.<br />
