Jacksonville Jaguars at Baltimore Ravens (-13.5)
Watch out, Jacksonville.
In the early portion of a given season, double-digit spreads are always a cause for concern. Upsets happen on a weekly basis, and the fewer games a team has played, the greater the opportunity for inaccurate assessment. By now, however, everyone knows. Jacksonville is atrocious. Baltimore is not.
Entering the week at 8-5, the Ravens are currently on the outside of the playoff glass, looking in. They have only one game remaining against an AFC North opponent – Week 17 against the Browns – and they have had to make up ground against other AFC teams since falling to their 2-3 divisional record in Week 9.
A loss to the Jaguars may cripple the Ravens beyond repair. Baltimore won’t even let that be a consideration.
The Ravens blow the doors off the Jaguars, winning by four touchdowns and covering the spread.
