The closest betting match of Wildcard Weekend sees the Jacksonville Jaguars end their playoff drought in hosting the LA Chargers.
Best Bet
This is a game the Chargers have made themselves vulnerable in by playing their starters last week and seeing Mike Williams fracture his back. Williams is a field stretcher whose presence opens up the field. His absence significantly hurts the Chargers offense.
That leads us to the under in this one.
The Chargers have been on a significant under run in going under the total in five of six. The absence of Williams only adds to confidence that the Chargers ability to score will be capped.
The Jags are in a big under spot too. The under has hit in 11 of 14 home games for the Jags and 19 of 28 against a winning team.
With the under 25-9-1 when the total is 44 or higher in wildcard games, confidence is high that this one will finish under the total.
Same Game Multi
Ekeler has 18 touchdowns including six in his last five.
Kirk has eight-plus targets in 10 games this season to go with eight touchdowns so will get the volume to score.
Value Bet
Lawrence is a big-bodied quarterback not afraid to rush the ball and that has netted him five rushing touchdowns this season. His seven games of 20-plus rush yards are also indicative we are likely to see Lawrence using his legs against the Chargers.
