The Lean

Our prediction for this week three matchup between the Jaguars and Bills is to take Jacksonville to cover as road underdogs. Even though the point spread currently has the Bills at -5.5, we have the Jaguars coming out on top by a score of 26-22.

For an over/under pick, we really like the over, with a projected combined score of 48 points. With the line sitting at 45.5 points, there is some nice value in taking the over in this one.
