The Jacksonville Jaguars aren’t even going to be close to a playoff push if the latest odds from Bovada can be trusted — they have the Jaguars installed at just 6.0 wins. The UNDER is even money, which means you bet $100 to win $100. The OVER is set at -130, which means you have to bet $130 to win $100. That means the OVER is the favorite.
In short, Vegas thinks the Jaguars go 6-10 this year. Bettors think they’ll win seven or more games.
The Jaguars have the lowest initial win total for the AFC South. The Indianapolis Colts are the favorites to win the division with the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans tied at a half-game each under that.
Indianapolis Colts: 9.0
Houston Texans: 8.5
Tennessee Titans: 8.5
Jacksonville Jaguars: 6.0
The Colts have the eighth-highest win total, tied with the Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, and New York Giants. The Texans and Titans are tied with five other teams in the league. And the Jaguars are the sixth-lowest, better than only the Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Rams, New York Jets, Cleveland Browns, and San Francisco 49ers.
What do you think is the easiest bet in the division right now? I have to imagine the UNDER on the Colts getting to 9.0 games has to be up there. Maybe the UNDER on the Jaguars as well.
