On the road, the Colt’s offense ranks 9th in points per game, 22nd in pass yards, 2nd in rush yards, and 13th in yards per play.

Jaguars Spotlight

The Jacksonville Jaguars continued their shitty season taking a big 40-point ass-whipping to the New England Patriots. At home, the Jaguar’s offense ranks 31st in points per game, 27th in pass yards, 19th in rush yards, and 21st in yards per play. Defensively at home, the Jaguars rank 20th in points allowed, 19th in pass yards allowed, 17th in rush yards allowed, and 21st in yards per play.

Final Say

Jacksonville is a 2-14 team that is 4-12 ATS, and they have nothing to play for and have a the number one draft pick locked up. Not to mention they a coaching staff who’s jobs are up in the air at the moment. The Jaguars have the worst offense in the league that can’t get much done in term of points, while the Colts rank 9th in points scored on the road. Sure the Colts have a horrendous track record against the Jaguars going 1-11-1 ATS in their last 13 meetings, but this is the biggest game of the year for the Colts who haven’t lost the turnover battle in their last four games, which means the Jaguars shouldn’t get many opportunities for cheap points that could play a big role in covering a spread more than two touchdowns. The Colts are also 6-0 ATS in their last six road games. Roll with the Colts to win and cover in this meaningless game for the Jaguars.

Pick: Indianapolis Colts -15
