Jaguars Teetering On the Brink
The Jacksonville Jaguars are having a horrible start to their season, entering this week’s game with a record of 2-6. Jacksonville lost at home to the Green Bay Packers on a late field goal, with a slow start from Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville offense putting them behind the eight-ball. Against an Eagles team that can run up the score against you in a hurry, the Jaguars cannot afford another slow start, or they could see themselves drop to 2-7 for the year.
Eagles Heating Up Entering Week 9
Going into Jaguars vs Eagles on Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles are 5-2 and on a three-game winning streak. Their most recent triumph came in Week 8, when the Eagles won 37-17 against the Cincinnati Bengals. While the Eagles offense is starting to fire on all cylinders, the defense of Philadelphia will be its focal point in this game, as getting pressure on Trevor Lawrence could force him into the kinds of mistakes that will allow Philly to create separation in this matchup.
Jaguars vs Eagles Best Bet
We will take the over as our best bet for Sunday’s Jaguars vs Eagles matchup. Philadelphia’s offense is gaining steam with each passing week, while the Jaguars can move the ball through the air while trailing as we have seen in recent weeks. Expect these teams to combine to score somewhere around 50 points, even if this game ends up being lopsided in the end.
