Atlanta vs. Jacksonville
This week’s line in the London game between Atlanta and Jacksonville sets a tone for the game as if there is a big difference in the quality of these teams. With the Jaguars playing as 3-point favorites on a neutral field, oddsmakers are trying to tell us that they are that much better. Are they though? To me, it certainly doesn’t seem so thus far.
Head coach Doug Pederson’s team comes off an ugly 20-point loss to Houston and by all rights hasn’t put together an impressive game yet. Historically, they’ve fared horribly against NFC foes, going 7-31 ATS in their last 38 nonconference tilts, including 1-10 ATS in the QB Trevor Lawrence era.
In this specific matchup, Atlanta is on a 5-1 SU and 6-0 ATS run vs. Jacksonville. The Falcons have been pretty sound defensively so far, allowing just 18 PPG, and should be in this one throughout, with a great shot at the upset.
