Offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch dialed up a double pass that led to a score and a 24-10 lead in the third quarter. Jacksonville’s opponents might want to start expecting trick plays. Houston was flagged 14 times for a team-record 177 yards - many of them extending drives. Turnovers were a problem again for Kubiak’s team. Still, the Texans walked off the field with an all-too-familiar feeling. Andre Johnson caught 13 passes for 154 yards. Schaub completed 17 of 29 passes for 198 yards, with a touchdown and an interception. “Our team continues to show that they’re sticking to it, believing and making plays at critical times.” “For what they’ve gone through and to stick to it and have some results go their way, it’s pretty cool,” Bradley said. Jacksonville players ran on the field to celebrate. The Texans had one final chance - they needed to go 77 yards in 20 seconds and without a timeout - but Schaub was sacked to end the game. The Jaguars milked the clock from there, and Josh Scobee’s 39-yard field goal provided some insurance. Hayes picked off Schaub’s next pass, a floater over the middle. Jacksonville picked up a huge first down that flipped the field - not surprising that it came on a penalty - but punted. The Texans were in the red zone again, but failed to convert a fourth-down play with 3:37 remaining. He replaced starter Case Keenum late in the third quarter and led the team to a touchdown and a field goal in his first two possessions. Schaub came off the bench and carved up Jacksonville’s secondary in the second half. Kubiak and the Texans looked as if they would end the streak after a quarterback change, but Geno Hayes intercepted Matt Schaub’s pass with 2:08 remaining to seal Jacksonville’s first series sweep since 2009. “It’s been a gut-wrenching experience,” said Kubiak, whose team has lost eight games by seven points or less. Houston (2-11) extended its franchise-record losing streak to 11 games, a stunning stretch of futility that could lead the franchise to fire coach Gary Kubiak. We’re a young team that’s learning how to do this.” “The biggest challenge is to keep doing what we’re doing. “Our guys just really believe,” Bradley said.
