Packers vs Jaguars Prediction
The current betting odds have the Packers listed as a 4.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Packers have looked good in their games this season with their 5-2 record overall. They had a rocky start to the season with an injury to Love in their season opener, but he has been back healthy and they have looked a lot better in their last few games. They are coming off a win over the Texans in their last one and they will be looking to carry that momentum into this one against a weaker team. The Packers are 4-2 this season, but the NFC North is the best division in the NFL right now so that record only has them in 3rd place meaning the Packers can't afford to be complacent. Meanwhile, the Jaguars have looked terrible in their games this season with their 2-5 record overall. They have had one of the worst starts in the NFL this season and their offense has looked terrible. They are coming off a win against the Patriots in their last one, but that is also one of the worst teams in the NFL right now. The Jags also just spent 2 weeks in London and are now back without a bye week so this is a tough game for them with the travel. The Packers haven't looked great in their games lately but they have been getting better in each one and this will be a game where they really start to click as a team. The best way to place a bet here is on the Packers to cover the spread in this game.
