Week 12 was a crucial one atop the AFC South standings. The two top teams heading into the weekend faced off with one another, with the Jacksonville Jaguars narrowly beating the Houston Texans in a 24-21 thriller.
The Texans had a chance to tie the game late, but a long field goal attempt by kicker Matt Ammendola came up just short and hit the crossbar.
The Tennessee Titans finally won for the first time in November, edging out the 1-10 Panthers, 17-10. This game certainly didn’t earn the Titans any style points, and it also hurt their chances at a top-five pick.
Lastly, the Indianapolis Colts held on against a Tampa Bay Buccaneers team that gave them all that they could handle in a 27-20 game they nearly blew.
