NFL Playoff Free Pick: Take Jacksonville. According to latest NFL trends, the Jaguars are 5-0 against the spread in their last five road games and 4-1-1 in their last six road games versus a team with a winning home record. Jacksonville hasn’t covered in back-to-back weeks but the last time the Jags did cover the number they were 16-point road underdogs versus the Packers. They rose to the challenge that day, covering easily in a 24-15 loss. The Texans thumped the Jags 27-7 in Week 2 this season but look for Jacksonville to keep things tighter this Sunday. After a hard-fought win over the Bears last Sunday night in Chicago and three straight road games coming up, look for Houston to overlook Jacksonville today.
