JAGUARS @ JETS (8:25p ET)

JAGUARS QB TREVOR LAWRENCE OVER 12.5 RUSHING YARDS (-110)

This is going to be a cold, wet and sloppy game on Thursday night. I have a feeling this game will be won on the ground and not through the air. Lawrence has been over this prop number in five of his last seven games. The Jets have allowed 18 yards per game to the quarterback position on the ground which is middle of the road in the NFL. This should not be a sweat.

 

JAGUARS TE EVAN ENGRAM OVER 4.5 RECEPTIONS (+115)

While I said that this game will be won on the ground, they will have to throw the ball at some point. Engram has been Lawrence's favorite target over the last three games. He has a combined 32 targets over those three games with 24 catches. The odds make this bet even more tempting to play.

 

JETS TE C.J. UZOMAH OVER 9.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-115)

Uzomah is not a target monster by any means but we really only need one catch to hit this prop. C.J. has been over this prop number in five of his last six games even with the flipping at quarterback. The Jaguars are bottom five in the league at covering the tight end position allowing 59 yards per game.
