Savage victory: Texans make a QB move, rally for 21-20 win over Jags

It was something that Houston Texans fans thought that they would never see. And the results were, in their eyes, savage.

Tom Savage, replacing an ineffective Brock Osweiler at quarterback, led the Texans from a 13-0 deficit to a big 21-20 win over Jacksonville to stay tied for the AFC South Division lead.

Savage, coming into the game midway in the second quarter, completed 23 of 36 passes for 260 yards while Nick Novak made field goals from 39, 45, 43 and 27 yards.

A couple of pass interference calls against Jacksonville helped the Texans to get the go-ahead score.
