| an NFL adage which states that coaches and players must have a short memory. The so-called "24-hour rule" decrees that a difficult loss should never linger for more than a day, as teams attempt to focus in advance of their next challenge. Well, the Jacksonville Jaguars might throw that line of thinking out the window this week. The Jaguars, who will welcome the Houston Texans to Alltel Stadium on Sunday, were humbled by their AFC South rival by a 27-7 count back in Week 7, and chances are that the sting of that de |

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -Three defensive starters returned to practice Friday for the Jacksonville Jaguars and were expected to play against the Houston Texans. Cornerback Rashean Mathis (hamstring), defensive tackle John Henderson (hamstring) and safety Donovin Darius (knee) had missed the previous two days of practice. All three remain questionable, but returning to practice was a sign they would be able to play Sunday. Pro Bowl defensive tackle Marcus Stroud (ankle) was officially ruled out, and will miss |

When the Eagles left Lincoln Financial Field two Sundays ago, they were left to ponder how the Jacksonville Jaguars controlled the clock and amassed 209 rushing yards in a 13-6 victory. Don't try to sell linebacker Jeremiah Trotter on the idea that the Jaguars manhandled the Eagles' defense, despite working nearly 37 minutes off the clock. Trotter says the vide |

| Jacksonville, FL (MySportsbook) - Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Byron Leftwich will most likely be on the bench for this Sunday's game against Houston, coach Jack Del Rio announced on Monday. If Leftwich is unable to be under center at the start of the game, David Garrard will make his third start of the season. "Byron is about 85-90 percent and is probably not going to get better than that until he has a long time off," said Del Rio. "In my opinion, he's about as good as he's going to get."
