Jaguars remain 3.5-point underdogs vs. Titans but money line shifts

There was a shift in the money line for the Jags and Titans game but the spread remained the same.

The Jacksonville Jaguars remain a betting underdog for their upcoming game against the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, TN.

According to BetMGM, the Jaguars are still currently a 3.5-point underdogs to their divisional rivals but the money line did change.

The Jaguars began the week as a +140 underdog on the money line, however, they’ve now fallen to a +165 underdog as of today’s writing.

When looking at the total, the bout is still expected to be a low-scoring game with the over/under unchanged from 41.5-points.

Both teams have been very difficult to bet on. The Jaguars are 5-5 against the spread and are coming off consecutive double-digit losses to the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts. The Titans are 4-5-1 against the spread and have won three out of their last five games. The Titans last victory came against the Kansas City Chiefs by the score of 35-32.

3 things to know for Jaguars vs. Titans

The Jags should expect a scrappy Titans team Week 12 after they will be coming off their bye with momentum from their win against the Chiefs.

While their fanbase is still recovering from Sunday’s deflating loss to the Indianapolis Colts, the Jacksonville Jaguars must now let it be nothing more than a moment in the past. Up next for them is a team who may be even more desperate than the Colts were in the Tennessee Titans, who look to be a better team than they were Week 3 when the Jags beat them on “Thursday Night Football.”

All of that said, here are three things to know as the Jags and Titans gear up for their second meeting of 2019:

The Titans have a lot to play for with the No. 9 seed in the AFC

The Titans will come into Sunday’s game with plenty to play for — and quite frankly — more than the Jags. As of Tuesday, they have the ninth seed in the AFC playoff picture with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Oakland Raiders, Houston Texans and Buffalo Bills in their way for a wild-card slot.

Per For the Win, the Titans have a 17.9% chance to make the playoffs. The Jags, on the other hand, have a 6.5% chance after previously having an 18.9% chance previously. A win for the Titans could push them closer to the 20% range if not higher as they are currently favorites over the Jags by 3.5-points, per BetMGM.

Jags enter Week 12 as 3.5-point underdogs against Titans

The Jags came into Week 12 listed as underdogs for the second consecutive week after their bye.

Just as they did Week 11, the Jacksonville Jaguars will enter Week 12 as underdogs on the road against the Tennessee Titans. They also will be an underdog by 3.5-points for the second consecutive week, per BetMGM.

The Titans will be coming off their bye week with a 5-5 record, the No. 3 spot in the division and No. 9 seed in the playoff race. Prior to that, they had a huge win against the Kansas City Chiefs Week 10, which could give them the necessary momentum they need to make the playoffs heading forward.

The Jags, on the other hand, had a much more different experience in their last game and were defeated handily by the Indianapolis Colts by a score of 33-13. Sunday marked the return of veteran quarterback Nick Foles, who looked healthy but didn’t have an eventful day outside of the first quarter. He’ll be looking to have a better day against a Titans defense that is ranked No. 22 against the pass and No. 14 against the rush.

The total for Sunday’s game is currently set at 41.5 points. The money line is set at +140 for the Jags, which means a wager of $100 on them would pay out $140.

Jags remain 3.5-point underdogs to Colts

The spread for the Jags’ matchup against the Colts is still set at 3.5-points as of Sunday despite Indy being down two receivers.

With the final injury reports now official, the Jacksonville Jaguars are still underdogs to the Indianapolis Colts in the eyes of the oddsmakers in Vegas. As of Saturday morning, they still are listed as 3.5-point underdogs on the road per BetMGM in what is being viewed as a must-win game for both teams.

The Colts announced that starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett will play Friday after sustaining an MCL sprain two weeks ago against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, they will be without receiver Paris Campbell (hand) and starting receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf), which could be an issue for Brissett.

Meanwhile, the Jags only had one player on the injury report in tight end Seth DeValve (oblique), who was ruled doubtful. However, the biggest news of the week for them was the return of starting quarterback Nick Foles, who missed eight games with a collarbone injury.

While there wasn’t a change in the spread, the money line dropped from +135 to +125, which means a wager of $100 on the Jags would pay out $125. The total for Sunday’s game remained the same though, at 44.5.

Jags enter Week 11 as 3.5-point underdogs to Colts

The Jags have entered Week 11 as underdogs to the Colts as both are coming off embarrassing losses.

After missing out on a chance to acquire the second place spot in the AFC South Week 9 against the Houston Texans, the Jacksonville Jaguars (4-5) will have another shot at the same spot when they take on the Indianapolis Colts (5-4) Sunday. However, it appears they will have to do so as underdogs on the road as BetMGM has the Colts favorited by 3.5-points.

Both teams will be coming off of embarrassing Week 11 losses. The Jags will be looking to get over a recent 26-3 beatdown courtesy of the Texans, while the Colts will be looking to get over a 16-12 loss to one of the worst teams in football: the Miami Dolphins. They both also will be looking to stay in the hunt for a wild-card playoff spot as the Jags are currently the sixth seed, while the Colts are the eighth seed.

Part of the reason the Colts struggled Sunday was due to the absence of starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who missed the game due to an MCL sprain he sustained Week 8 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. His status for Week 11’s game is unknown but we’ll know more Wednesday when the first injury report is released.

Meanwhile, the Jags will be getting their starting signal-caller back as Nick Foles is ready to return from the collarbone injury he sustained Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs. With the Jags in a spot where a loss would really hurt their playoff chances, they will need the veteran to quickly be the late season savior he was in Philly and bring the Jags their second divisional win of 2019.

The total for Sunday’s game is currently set at 44.5 points. The money line is set at +135 for the Jags, which means a wager of $100 on the Cardiac Cats would pay out $135.
