JAGUARS ...23 TEXANS ...18 David Garrard threw two touchdown passes, Josh Scobee kicked three field goals and Jacksonville stayed in the AFC wild-card hunt with a victory against injury-depleted Houston. It was the Jaguars' fifth straight victory at home and came in front of an announced crowd of 42,079 - the lowest in franchise history. Garrard threw for 238 yards, completing passes to nine different receivers, and enjoyed his first turnover-free game in a month. He had four fumbles and an interception the past three weeks. Two of his four turnover-free games this season have come against the Texans, who have lost four in a row and appear out of the playoffs for the eighth time in as many years. ...more

CHIEFS ...16 RAIDERS ...10 Jamaal Charles scored on a 44-yard run for Kansas City's first rushing touchdown of the season and the Chiefs used a late interception to win their seventh straight game in Oakland. The Chiefs have managed to win just five of their past 35 games. But three of those wins have come at the Oakland Coliseum, where Kansas City has the longest winning streak ever by a visiting team. Ryan Succop kicked three field goals and Kansas City once again pulled out a close one against the Raiders in Oakland in their first game since releasing running back Larry Johnson. The Raiders scored a touchdown on their opening drive and then managed just three points and 202 yards the rest of the way. ...more

PACKERS ...17 COWBOYS ...7 Charles Woodson helped Green Bay's defense finally play up to its potential against a big-time opponent, forcing two fumbles and picking off a pass by Tony Romo on the goal line in a victory against Dallas. It wasn't a pretty win for the Packers, but it might have saved their season after back-to-back demoralizing losses. The Packers sacked Romo five times and held him to 251 yards passing in a momentum-killer for the Cowboys, who had won four straight. Dallas also lost starting right tackle Marc Colombo to a broken left leg. Aaron Rodgers scored on a quarterback sneak and threw a touchdown pass to tight end Spencer Havner. Rodgers endured another rough day at the office, taking four sacks and spending much of the day under pressure. ...more
