Oddsmakers currently have the Jaguars listed as 3-point favorites versus the Titans, while the game’s total is sitting at 40½.
Regardless of who starts under center, they will likely face pressure that has made life difficult for Bortles and Henne this season. Jacksonville has given up 19 sacks over the last three weeks and a league-high 62 overall, which is one shy of the franchise record set in 2001. Bortles, who was sacked eight times in a 20-12 loss at Baltimore last weekend, was in a walking boot Monday but told reporters he expects to play.
Jacksonville lost its last outing, a 20-12 result against the Ravens on December 14. The Jaguars covered in that game as a +14-point underdog, while the 32 combined points took the game UNDER the total.
Team record: 2-12 SU,4-9-1 ATS
Jacksonville is 4-11-2 ATS in its last 17 games
Jacksonville is 2-15 SU in its last 17 games
The total has gone UNDER in 7 of Jacksonville’s last 10 games
Jacksonville is 3-11-1 ATS in its last 15 games at home
Tennessee has gone two straight games without an offensive touchdown as one of the league’s most meager attacks has bottomed out. One consistent issue has been an inability to sustain drives at all – the Titans have lost the time-of-possession battle for seven straight games and are 31st in the league in that category overall (27:03), ahead of only fast-paced Philadelphia. Tennessee is last in third-down percentage (29), although it was a bit better against New York, converting 6-of-16.
The Titans were a 16-11 loser in their most recent outing at home against the Jets. They failed to cover the +3.5-point spread as underdogs, while the total score (27) made winners of UNDER bettors.
Team record: 2-12 SU,3-10-1 ATS
Current Streak: lost 8 straight games.
Tennessee is 1-6 ATS in its last 7 games
Tennessee is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games
Tennessee is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games on the road
