The Jacksonville Jaguars lead the Houston Texans by seven points in their NFL clash at Reliant Stadium.

The Jaguars took the lead in the game on their opening possession for the second successive week as quarterback Chad Henne led his team downfield, and, although they were stopped on third and goal, they opted to go for it on fourth down.

Maurice Jones-Drew justified this decision as he powered through the middle of the line to go in for the one-yard score.

Henne drove his side into Texans territory again but this time they were held to a field goal as Josh Scobee nailed his kick between the posts from 30 yards to give his team a 10-point advantage.

However, just before the break the home side got themselves on the board as Case Keenum moved them into field goal range and Randy Bullock made his kick from 49 yards out to pull his side within seven.
