NFL Underdog Pick: Week 9
November 3rd 2007 by Special K
Jacksonville Jaguars (+3.5) at New Orleans
Forget the points,
I like the Jacksonville Jaguars to win outright this week versus the New
Orleans Saints. Everyone is back on the Saints bandwagon after winning
three games in a row. I'm not. First of all, look at the teams the
New Orleans Saints have played
against. The only decent team they beat was Seattle and that was a
desperation game to keep their season alive. New Orleans is also
2-8 against the spread in their last 10
games. This is a week I am basing my pick on Power Rankings (Jaguars are
ranked higher) and the strength of opponents the Jacksonville Jaguars have
faced.
If the Jaguars don't fall behind early and aren't forced to have Quinn Gray pass
the ball, look for the Jaguars to grind out another ugly win. |
