Colts vs. Jaguars Prediction, Odds, Against Spread and Over/Under for NFL Week 18
The Indianapolis Colts currently sit in the No. 6 spot in the AFC playoffs, but their postseason birth isn't locked up quite yet as we enter the final week of the NFL regular season.
They'll meet the Jaguars in Week 18, and they all but need to win this game in order to fully lock up their spot. According to playoffstatus.com, if they beat the Colts beat the Jags, they'll be in the postseason. If they lose, their playoff chances drop to just 28% and they'll need help from other results around the league.
Luckily for them, they're huge favorites to get the job done. Let's take a look at the odds for the AFC South showdown via WynnBET.

Colts vs. Jaguars Prediction and Pick
It is admittedly a probably a very stupid thing to do, but I'm going to back the Jaguars to cover the 15-point spread in this AFC South game.
I haven't been big believers in the Colts all season, and I don't think they deserve to be this big of a favorite against any team in the NFL, even with their playoff hopes on the line. The Colts offense is just 13th in the NFL in yards per play, and 22nd in opponent yards per play.
The Jaguars statistics are obviously worse (25th and 25th respectively), but are they truly deserving of being 15-point underdogs? I don't think so.
The Colts will likely punch their ticket to the playoffs, but I'll wager some coins on the Jaguars to keep the final score within two touchdowns.
