The Jacksonville Jaguars aim to end a six-game straight-up losing streak Sunday when they host the defending Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos at EverBank Field. The Broncos travel east on an uneven 3-4 SU and against the spread run, including losses in two of their past three on the road.
- The favored team is 1-6 ATS in the last seven games in this matchup.
- The Jaguars are 14-3-1 ATS in their last 18 games in Week 13.
- The Broncos are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games as a favorite of 4.5 or less.
The 2-9 Jaguars continued their downward spiral with last week's 28-21 loss in Buffalo but covered as 8.5-point underdogs for their second ATS win in their past four. Jacksonville is winless SU and ATS in its past two at home but is 2-2 SU and 4-0 ATS its past four as a home underdog.
The 7-4 Broncos dropped a narrow 30-27 decision to Kansas City as 3.5-point home chalk last weekend to fall out of the AFC wild-card picture, at least temporarily. Denver's recent inconsistency extends to its play on the road, where the team is 1-2 SU and ATS in three, and has covered in just two of six as road favorites.
Denver claimed a 35-19 win as massive 26.5-point home chalk in the last meeting with the Jaguars three years ago. However, Jacksonville has otherwise dominated, posting SU wins in five of seven, and ATS wins in five of six against the Broncos.
