Who knew arguably the best game of Week 12 would be the AFC South matchup between Houston and Jacksonville?
Make your best NFL script joke here, right? That is one of three matchups between teams with winning records. San Francisco travels to Seattle in the Thanksgiving prime-time game, and Buffalo travels to Philadelphia.
So, yeah, Texans-Jaguars is where it’s at in a rematch from Week 3 when the Texans stunned the Jaguars 37-17.
Houston (6-4) has won three games in a row under first-year coach DeMeco Ryans. C.J. Stroud ranks second in the NFL with 2,962 passing yards, and the receiving tandem of Nico Collins and Tank Dell is the talk of fantasy leagues heading toward their stretch run.
Jacksonville (7-3) still has a one-game lead in the division, however. Trevor Lawrence, who has 2,382 passing yards, made that break through last season. The Jaguars have won six of seven games since that first Houston loss, and both teams will be in the mix in December. This is the best the holiday weekend has to offer.
