In what’s become a common theme in Jacksonville, the 2015 season could soon become yet another lost one for the Jaguars if the team can’t find ways to string together victories. Gus Bradley’s club will try and get things on the right track in Week 9 opposite the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.
The Jags (2-5 SU, 3-4 ATS) are lucky to be playing in the suddenly weak AFC South, but have allowed opponents to put up 207 points while only registering 147 of their own so far this year.
The Jets, who failed to cover the -3 spread in Week 8 by losing 34-20 to the Oakland Raiders, have historically not performed well in this position. In their last 12 games following a SU loss as favorites, New York is a paltry 1-11 ATS.
A 30-17 result in favor of the Jets is the prediction by the Odds Shark handicapping pick engine. View the computer score prediction and who will win the pick on the moneyline for all upcoming NFL matchups here.
