. 2-12. . Jacksonville Jaguars. 30. team. 52

You almost had us there, Jacksonville.

For a brief while, the Jaguars stymied the Houston Texans enough into benching quarterback Brock Osweiler and possibly coming away with win No. 3 in an utterly disappointing season.

But it was all too good to be true. Houston came back and won 21-20.

Head coach Gus Bradley might have been on the outs before the game. But the team made no bones about it immediately after.

What’s worse is Bradley had to fly back home with the team after his firing. Awkward.
