The Jets had a Hail Mary pick 6……
This team has proven ALL year to be unreliable in short yardage.
What a huge momentum shift after a great play by Kirk. Did not like the goal line attempt. We seem to suck running in those situations.

A field goal...you go up by two scores.

I could understand if the Jags were a power team. DUMB DUMB DUMB...

You ALWAYS take the points to go up by two scores, get the ball in the second half.

I'm usually an advocate of taking the points but from 6 inches out against a soft texans interior dline we need to be able to execute that. Short yardage has been the achilles heel of this team for far too long. 2017 with Fournette and Ivory was the last time it was a team strength.
It’s good to have stones but you don’t have to be stupid.

No #$*@*$#@$.

The Jags are horrible at short distance.   You get to the 1.  1 second left.

No brainer you take a 16-7 lead going into the half considering you get the ball first in the second half.

DUMB coaching on that play.
Can't believe they didn't just go straight QB sneak if they were going to go for it.
I like the call to go for it, but you gotta sneak it with Trevor there
I love the call, and the speed of it. Shame that it didn't work, but I still it.

We can't run up the middle. 

We should have kicked and taken the 3 points instead.
That’s the game loser right there. We’re “up” but now Texans defense has momentum. Look for 3 and out to start second half
Yeah at least out in tank or qb sneak. Etienne is a gear back, but he has been stonewalled all year for short yardage

Up 6 at the half. I'll take it. Got plenty to improve on but we're just inches away from a big play here. It's coming.

We're up by 6 and take the kickoff at the beginning of the 2nd half. I'll take that too.
We're fine

Jags are outoplaying them

Half of the tinhorns completions are coming via off script scrambles - the Jags are moving the ball without smoke and mirrors.

If we can get the run going in the second half and control clock we own this - I'm feeling good.
We have certainly blown some opportunities so far today.
Going up 2 scores with a FG and he goes for it. Harrison isn't good and Strange sucks. Brilliant
I don't hate going for it there after the huge reception... But you can't call silly gimmicky sideways plays, or handoffs from shotgun 5 yards behind the LOS, every time you need a yard. You have to be able to run up the middle and get a yard.

You took Strange in the second round; use him as an H-back and run it up the middle if you trust the line that little. Find some way to get a yard.
Who called that??
Okay enough Jaggin off lets win the game.
I love Doug. He is a great coach, but he is too aggressive when we have the better team and just need to keep piling on points. He gives the tiene team a chance to stick around
