Bill O'Brien and the Texans are impressed with Jacksonville.
After yesterday's 30-24 victory over the Seahawks, the Jaguars are 9-4 and atop the AFC South. In Week 1 at Houston, they jumped out to a 19-0 halftime advantage, rang up 10 sacks and left NRG Stadium with a 29-7 victory. They've won seven of their last eight contests, and O'Brien knows the Texans have a big challenge in Week 15.
"They’re playing at a high level," O'Brien said in a Monday press conference. "Just like every year in this league, teams get hot. Jacksonville’s hot."
The Jaguars lead the NFL in takeaways with 30, and their defense has picked off 19 passes, which is the second-best mark in the League.
