Jaguars at Saints picks and predictions

Prediction

Saints 19, Jaguars 15

Moneyline

The SAINTS (-118) are the safe play on the moneyline. The Jaguars (+100) are a bit risky, as Lawrence carries a questionable tag into TNF, and there is a good possibility his status isn’t determined until pregame warmups. He was only able to practice on a limited basis on Tuesday and Wednesday.

As such, playing the home side is the recommended course of action. There is a huge drop-off between Lawrence and backup QB C.J. Beathard, and there is a legitimate 50-50 chance the former Iowa signal caller could be under center for the Jags.

Against the spread

The SAINTS -1.5 (-104) are the play at home, despite the fact New Orleans has failed to cover both of its games at Caesars Superdome this season. Laying the little bit of points is a lot more economical than the moneyline, although this should be a very close game, too.

Over/Under

UNDER 39.5 (-105) is a very low number, but no number has been too low for the Saints this season. New Orleans is averaging just 12.5 PPG at home, while allowing just 20.5 PPG.

The Jaguars are also a huge concern on offense if Beathard is under center. Jacksonville rolled up 37 points on Indianapolis last week, and it has cashed the Over both times against the Colts this season. But the Under is 3-1 in its other 4 outings.
