I understand that and I fully supported them moving the Miami game, but they did say that they were moving the game so the player's could be with their families, which that reason would still stand for the Jaguars as well. 

I mean, while the Jaguars are playing in Houston a CAT 4 hurricane will be moving through Jacksonville. How much of their mind will be on the game?

Dude, what part of "playing football outside during a category 4 hurricane" is not clicking for you? Last time I checked, the category 4 hurricane has long since left Houston. The category 4 hurricane in Miami will be coming onshore right around the time the game is scheduled to be played. It's not a "be with your family" thing. It's a "don't get impaled by a 2x4 breaking the speed of sound" thing. I'm just not sure why you're saying there's a sham to avoid losing money in play here.
