A bright spot with COVID-2020 is that this game isn’t in London at like 9 a.m., but the downside is that a Texans win helps the Jaguars continue the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. A depleted Texans defense might be the difference today, though. Also: I’ve placed a “flying” easter egg into the article’s Jags stadium image. Can you spot it? If you do, please don’t give clues to the others! The 1st qtr. thread posts at 11:45 a.m. CT.
