Raiders vs. Jaguars Free Pick
JACKSONVILLE, FL (theSpread) – If the Jacksonville Jaguars want to keep their one-game lead in the AFC South, they need to take care of a pesky Oakland Raiders team this Sunday. Continue reading for picks, odds and more on this Week 14 matchup.
According to NFL Week 14 odds and oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com the Jaguars are 4-point favorites over the Raiders on Sunday. The over/under total for this game is currently 42.5 points.
The Raiders shocked NFL pundits last weekend with their win over the Chargers. They’re now 6-6 straight up and have covered in seven of their 12 games this season. They’re 2-4 on the road, but are 4-2 against the spread according to latest NFL trends.
The Jaguars improved to 7-5 with their win over the Titans last weekend and are now 8-4 against the spread. They’re 4-2 at home this season and have covered in four of their six games at EverBank Field.
NFL Week 14 Pick:
The side is too close of a call to predict. Two weeks ago the Raiders looked like they were going to crash and burn the rest of the season. Then they shocked everyone last week in San Diego and now oddsmakers have made them awfully attractive at +4. But we think the books could be laying a trap and therefore we’ll look towards the total for more value. The over is 5-1 in the Jaguars’ last six games overall and 8-2 in their last 10 versus AFC opponents. It’s also 5-1 in the last six December games and 7-3-1 in the Raiders’ last 11 games in December. David Garrard doesn’t have the weapons to test teams downfield, but Maurice Jones-Drew should find plenty of open spaces to run on Oakland’s defense and we think Jason Campbell could have a nice day against an inconsistent Jacksonville secondary. Our pick is the over 42.5.
