What to Bet
The Jaguars So Far in 2018
How do you characterize the Jags' showing in Big D? Dreadful? Demoralizing? Or typical? Is this what this squad is sans Leonard Fournette? Jacksonville is not built to come from behind -- a notion repeated on the broadcast and in highlight shows over and over again -- because the Jaguars have an issue at quarterback. When Blake Bortles plays well, it's usually in concert with the running game and a solid defensive effort. Take Fournette out of the offensive equation, and suddenly the Jaguars can't move the ball -- which in turn means Calais Campbell and the boys on defense are playing too many plays, defending short fields and ultimately going down with the ship.
Jaguars Odds
+120 to win the AFC South? No thank you. They are at 30-1 to win the Super Bowl.
Line Move and Who the Public is Backing
This one has moved from -4 to -5.5. 65% of the action was on Jacksonville. This is an indication that books are trying to get more action on Houston.
Prediction and Trends
Jacksonville has won the last two in this series by a significant amount.
Jaguars are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after accumulating less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game.
Texans are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games on grass.
Deshaun Watson has been sacked on 9.6 percent of his dropbacks (sixth highest in the NFL) and contacted on 23.4 percent of his plays (fourth highest in the NFL among QBs) this season, both higher rates than he had in 2017.
