In a crucial Week 15 matchup, the Houston Texans topped the Jacksonville Jaguars 28-13, solidifying their playoff positioning as the season draws to a close. The victory not only boosts Houston's confidence but also dims the Jaguars' hopes of making a late-season run in the competitive AFC South. Shedeur Sanders showcased his efficiency, throwing for a touchdown and managing the game well, while David Montgomery led the ground attack with 74 rushing yards. Trevor Lawrence struggled to find his rhythm, finishing with 173 passing yards, and Jakobi Meyers was the standout receiver for Jacksonville, totaling 59 yards, but it wasn't enough to spark a comeback. Defensively, E.J. Speed made a significant impact with an interception that shifted momentum in Houston's favor. The Texans' ability to contain the Jaguars' offense was crucial, and the turning point came early in the second half when Speed's interception led to a touchdown, putting the game out of reach for Jacksonville. The Texans' defense, combined with their efficient offense, proved to be the winning formula in this pivotal contest.
