Updated Week 11 NFL playoff standings after Jaguars loss to Texans
Well, the good news is that despite Sunday's loss, the Jaguars are still on the inside of that playoff picture. With a 5-4 record, Jacksonville remains the seventh seed. They are just one game back of the 6-3 Bills for the sixth seed and 1.5 games back of the 7-3 Chargers for the fifth seed, who are the Jaguars' opponent this week.
The Houston Texans bolstered their roster with Cody Schrader, whose ties to the coaching staff could make him a seamless fit.
The Jacksonville Jaguars hold a one-game lead on the Houston Texans, and while Jacksonville has a manageable final four games, so do the Texans.
Houston's 0-3 start seemed insurmountable, but Demeco Ryans ignited a stunning turnaround, propelling the Texans into playoff contention and sparking Coach of the Year buzz.
