The Jacksonville Jaguars are currently opening as 9-point underdogs against the Houston Texans, largely because of the loss of starting quarterback Nick Foles.
That’s according to Action Network, which saw Jacksonville open as only 3-point underdogs before yesterday’s game.
The 3-point line, I can understand. You give the home team that line when the two teams are evenly matched and, frankly, the Texans are who the Jaguars were battling for the division before the season began.
The over/under is now 43.5 points, down just a little from 44.
