NFL Underdog Pick for Week 8
October 28nd 2009 - Special K            

Jacksonville Jaguars (+3) at Tennessee Titans

You have got to be kidding me that the Jaguars are underdogs to the Titans this week. No that is not a typo that you are seeing. How could the oddsmakers have gotten this spread so wrong? Did they not watch the 59-0 beating the Titans received from the Patriots?  Just a few weeks ago the Jaguars manhandled and crushed the Titans 37-17. Why would the outcome of this game be any different? I think the spread really has to do with the fact that Joe public likes to bet the favorites and Vegas is looking to recoup some of their losses they incurred when the favorites went 10-2-1 last weekend.
 
There is speculation that Vince Young may get the start this week as owner Bud Adams voiced his opinion that Vince should get the nod. At this point in the week, I don't even care who Fisher announces as the starting QB. It is not going to make a bit of difference and if it is going to be Vince Young, I highly doubt that the team is going to rally around him.

Keep a close eye on the spread if coach Fisher should announce that Vince Young will be the starting QB. I'm predicting the spread will drop down to even.

Take the Jaguars and the points

And if you like trends in your favor: The underdog is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings between both teams
