Lawrence is nursing an injury, so the Jaguars face even steeper odds on a short week on the road.

Moody: With a spread this narrow, I recommend backing the Saints on the money line and picking Jaguars to score under 20.5 points. I'm going to keep riding this trend in Saints games until the party stops, especially given the circumstances we have in this matchup. Trevor Lawrence is dealing with a knee injury that could compromise his ability or keep him out of the game all together. New Orleans' offensive line is banged up, which upgrades the matchup for an already stout Jags defense. However, 12(!) straight Saints games have gone under the total dating back to last season.

It is very scary given such a low total and some legitimate firepower on each offense. I think Schatz makes some compelling points. I think 40 is a pretty low number for a game that should have very average scoring - and is taking place indoors.įulghum: I'm going to play the UNDER 40. Jacksonville is 13th in offensive DVOA and New Orleans is 20th. Schatz: I think these teams are evenly matched, but I like the OVER 40 in this game. The Saints are 3-3 and returning home after a road loss to the Texans. The Jaguars are 4-2 and winners of three straight. Note: Lines from Caesars Sportsbook unless otherwise indicated.
