Indianapolis Colts vs. Jacksonville Jaguars Prediction and Pick

The Colts are very likely to win this game and the Jags have put together some unimpressive performances over the course of the season, but our Iain McMillian believes that this line is over inflated in the direction of the road favorites.

He explained on BetSided earlier this week.:

"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."

Pick: Jaguars +15
