Texans Face Must-Win Week 6 Clash With 4-1 Jaguars in London
3 articles · Updated · CNN · Oct 15
Summary
Houston enters Sunday’s Wembley game at 1-4, with a loss to AFC South rival Jacksonville likely pushing its playoff hopes toward collapse before Halloween.
Only one NFL team—the 1992 Chargers—has ever started 0-4 and still made the postseason, and the Texans have almost no margin left after finally beating Tennessee last week.
Jacksonville arrives with momentum at 4-1 after a 19-17 win over Philadelphia at Tottenham, seeking a London sweep after already making two-game UK trips in each season since 2023.
Houston’s path back into contention still exists—its next four games are against the Giants, Chargers, Browns and Colts—but that softer stretch matters only if it survives London.
