JagsTexans response

The main reason the Jaguars kept going to the fade route near the goal line is they had so much success with it last week in practice. According to quarterback David Garrard, the same play where the Jags failed to complete a pass three times to Matt Jones and another time failed to complete it to Ernest Wilford worked all 12 times they tried it in practice. All for touchdowns with the ball near the goal line. So when something works that well in practice, you want to give it a shot in the game. But after going 0-for-4 on the play against the Texans, they may not go to the well so often in future games. On three of the four passes, Garrard failed to throw a catchable ball. Jones had a reasonable shot at one of the jump-ball throws, but couldn't bring it in.
