The Jacksonville Jaguars are currently 14-point underdogs for their Week 17 season finale against the Indianapolis Colts.
With Indianapolis fighting for a playoff spot and the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes officially over... yeah, this could be a bloodbath.

That’s all according to Bovada, who has the over/under set at 49.5 points.
In short, Vegas thinks the Colts with with a score around 31-17.
Traditionally, the home team in NFL games are given a free three points and then the line goes from there, so this is saying that the Jaguars would lose by two scores even at home and... sure, why not? The team hasn’t looked competent on either side of the ball in recent weeks. It’s not going to be fun.
But what if it was?
What if we swept the Colts and kept them out of the playoffs all while landing the best college quarterback in April?
If you’ve bet against the Jaguars every single week, you’d still be in the positives. And this is a desperate Colts team we’ll be facing. Bet the mortgage on the Colts winning by more than two touchdowns.
