The Rundown: Jaguars Edition

Found September 17, 2012 on State of the Texans:
PLAYERS: Matt Schaub,  Owen Daniels,  Arian Foster,  James Casey,  Kevin Walter,  Andre Johnson,  Keshawn Martin,  Garrett Graham,  Bradie James,  Maurice Jones-Drew,  Wade Phillips,  Kareem Jackson,  Justin Blackmon,  Johnathan Joseph,  Ben Tate,  Justin Forsett,  Antoine Caldwell,  Derek Newton,  Ben Jones,  Earl Mitchell,  Connor Barwin,  Brooks Reed,  Whitney Mercilus,  Blaine Gabbert,  Donnie Jones,  J.J. Watt
TEAMS: Houston Texans,  Jacksonville Jaguars
It is hard to imagine that things on the football field could have gone any better for the Houston Texans against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Texans pretty much played a solid game, except for the three plays that led to the Jaguars only score of the day. There were plenty of questions to be answered from week one and it showed on Sunday with the Texans focused for all four quarters. Look no further than the dominance that both the offense and defense showed over their division foe.     The Rundown - There are many fans who complain about Matt Schaub, but he was as efficient as ever. It seemed like the Jaguars were playing a soft cover two scheme forcing Schaub to go underneath with his passes, and he gladly accepted what they gave him. He did not light up the stat sheet, but no turnovers and timely passing for first downs proved huge for the Texans to move the ball.   Targets | Completions Owen Daniels 6 | 9   Two drops Arian Foster 6 | 7  One drop James Casey  4 | 4 Kevin Walter...

Texans use Foster, Tate to run past Jaguars

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  September 16, 2012
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jacksonville Jaguars game-planned to take Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson out of the equation. But that left a lot of other opportunities and running backs Arian Foster and Ben Tate made the most of them. The Texans built a 17-0 halftime lead, with Foster and Tate each scoring a touchdown, and went on to beat the Jaguars 27-7 Sunday in front...

Houston Texans DE Antonio Smith fined, Miami Dolphins G Richie Incognito not

Via 60 Max Power O  |  September 16, 2012
  The person who retaliates is always the one who gets caught, not the person who initiates the transgressions. Such is the case for Houston Texans defensive end Antonio Smith, who was informed he was going to be fined $21K by the NFL for kicking Miami Dolphins G Richie Incognito during last Sunday’s 30-10 Texans victory. Smith however, was not so much disappointed that he...

Replacement Officials Are Blowing Even More Calls

Via Busted Coverage  |  September 16, 2012
While the Houston Texans took on the Jacksonville Jaguars, a run by Ben Tate was called a touchdown on the field and then overturned. It looked pretty obvious that Tate was in the end zone. Arian Foster ended up getting the touchdown and it didn’t matter for the team but it matters for those of us who play fantasy football. I’ll take those points from Arian Foster.  JUMP! Have...

Justin Blackmon continues to struggle

Via DraftAce  |  September 17, 2012
Jacksonville Jaguars 1st-round pick Justin Blackmon has just three catches through his first two games, and was shut out on Sunday against the Texans. Blackmon was on the field for 24 pass plays and was targeted three times, but failed to come down with a catch. The issue for Blackmon is his route running and it really shouldn’t come as a surprise. Oklahoma State ran a fairly basic...

The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without cornerback Derek Cox and guard Eben Britton against AFC South rival Houston. Cox and Britton are inactive for Sunday's game. Both had been listed as questionable. Will Middleton will start in place of Cox. Veteran Herb Taylor, signed off the street Monday, will start at guard after just three practices - none in full pads.

Muy Frio: Justin Blackmon

Via Juan Elway  |  September 17, 2012
I’m not catching on Juan… Justin Blackmon came out in the preseason swingin’ and throwing blows.  This impressive preseason showing has painted a target on Blackmon’s back.  The Jaguars showed their hand too early and they are paying for it when it matters the most.  Blackmon may be facing top corners, but what difference does that make when your QB can’t get you the...

Jacksonville Security Complete Ignores Fan Running Across The Field

Via Ride The Pine  |  September 17, 2012
The Jacksonville Jaguars security is really top notch.  This fan ran around the field for 55 seconds during a commercial break on Sunday when the Houston Texans defeated the Jags 27-7.  I don’t remember a time when a fan lasted this long on any type of professional field.  What is more amazing is that only one, ONE, security guard even attempted to grab the guy. It finally...
