ARGOMENTO: State’s Mike Weber [url=http://www.thetexanslock

Blake Bortles fumbled on Jacksonville’s third play of each half http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-nick-martin-jersey , leading to 10 points and his benching in a 20-7 loss to the streaking Houston Texans on Sunday.The Texans (4-3) won their fourth consecutive game thanks to those two turnovers and took a one-game lead in the AFC South.Deshaun Watson, who reportedly made the 800-mile road trip by bus instead of plane, had a touchdown pass despite playing with a bruised lung and injured ribs. Lamar Miller ran for a season-high 100 yards and a score .Watson’s health and Jacksonville’s quarterback situation surely will be the main topics going forward.Cody Kessler replaced Bortles in the third quarter and threw a short touchdown pass to T.J. Yeldon , creating speculation he might supplant Bortles in the starting lineup.The Jaguars (3-4) signed Bortles to a three-year, $54 million contract in February with the belief he was good enough to lead the defensive-minded team back to the playoffs. Bortles has been downright awful in three straight losses, with two touchdown passes and eight turnovers.Coach Doug Marrone clearly had seen enough when he made the switch Sunday. Marrone also benched Bortles in the 2017 preseason Andre Hal Jersey White , only to give him the starting job back nine days later.Bortles played turnover-free football in the postseason, gaining top executive Tom Coughlin’s confidence and landing the new contract. Now it’s unclear how much of the money he will get.Bortles lost the ball both times trying to scramble. The first one led to a field goal, and Watson connected with DeAndre Hopkins for a 10-yard score following the second one . That was one of several one-on-one matchups Hopkins won against talkative cornerback Jalen Ramsey.Hopkins’ best was a one-handed catch for 31 yards along the sideline in the first quarter.The Texans led 13-0 at the break, the third time in as many games Jacksonville has failed to score before halftime. The Jaguars had never done that previously in franchise history.They also had scoreless halves against Kansas City (24-0) and Dallas (20-0), so the Jags were outscored 57-0 in the first half in three straight weeks.HAL STARTSTexans safety Andre Hal, who returned to practice this week following treatment for Hodgkin’s lymphoma Jeff Allen Jersey White , was in the starting lineup. Hal was diagnosed with the disease in May and immediately began treatment. He received the news of his remission last month.The 26-year-old Hal, a seventh-round draft pick from Vanderbilt in 2014, is in his fifth year with the Texans. He started all 16 games last season and had three interceptions.KEY INJURIESTexans: WR Keke Coutee left in the second quarter with a hamstring injury and was ruled out at halftime.Jaguars: CB Tyler Patmon was ruled out in the second quarter because of a strained neck, forcing rookie safety Ronnie Harrison into a bigger role. … Backup linebacker Donald Payne injured in his left knee on a special teams play. … DE Calais Campbell left the game in the fourth with a stinger.UP NEXTTexans: Return home to host Miami on Thursday night.Jaguars: Face Philadelphia in a “home game” at Wembley Stadium in London.

Watt Jersey ,” they decided to try a new twist on mock drafting with “what teams SHOULD do.” How that varies from what teams will do is a little confusing, but not nearly as much as the actual pick mocked to the Texans.Adam Rank actually suggested the following:The first thing that jumps out as not wholly accurate was, “You could probably use some help on the offensive line.”When your team is ranked DEAD LAST in an area, you can definitely use some help. Next up: “I’m done with Lamar Miller and all of the other nonsense.” You know, Miller, the only player in NFL history to break two 97-yard runs in his career Christian Covington Jersey White , the latest behind the aforementioned worst ranked offensive line?Lamar Miller ain’t the problem.The third head-scratcher of this selection is expecting just about any team to draft a running back in the top 25 in a pass heavy league during a defense heavy draft class. If you were one player away, and that player happened to play running back, and you needed a running back who needed to work on his pass protection skills, then yeah, maybe Jacobs is your pick. But Houston is not that team.At the end of the day, Houston might be more inclined to go after Penn State’s Miles Sanders or Ohio State’s Mike Weber Shane Lechler Jersey White , well outside the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft.With so many mock drafts out there, it’s hard to not think some writers/TV personalities just make stuff up based on limited knowledge when they get to teams they aren’t wholly familiar with, but they do get paid to do this.It’s hard to believe that penciling a running back in for the Texans in the first round is a legitimate attempt at figuring out what the team will or should do in two weeks.Can you foresee a scenario where a running back in round one is a good idea for the Texans this year?Give us your feedback in the comments section.
