NFL SportSteem Pick: Jags Cover -9 in a Playoff Game - Hold on, WHAT?!

in #sportsteem7 years ago (edited)

The Bills, and in particular LeSean McCoy, are limping into a playoff match up against a surprisingly well-rounded Jags team. The Jags defense was the league's best for much of the season, and I expect them to contain a struggling Bills offense relatively easily. Covering a 9 point spread will require more than just defense, but I think the Jags offense is up to the task. Leonard Fournette has quickly proven himself to be one of the best running backs in the league, which has opened up opportunities for Blake Bortles to throw more than just interceptions. With the Bills run D being one of the worst in the league though, the Jags may not need Bortles to do much this game. I predict Fournette carries Jacksonville to an easy cover tomorrow, and in the process brings the city its first NFL playoff win in a decade.

Good luck with this play and your others... Tough Day 1 of the Wildcard weekend for me, but there's more games left. :)

Thanks, braveboat!
