Both of these teams will be hungry as they're both coming off losses to elite teams. The Jaguars could not stop the Chiefs' prolific passing attack, but the good news is that their own passing attack generated nearly as many yards. The bad news was that Nick Foles injured his shoulder and is on IR. There may be a hidden surprise here as Gardner Minshew came off the bench and hit 22-25 passes for 11 yards per attempt and a pair of TDs. I think this line is way too high as they are overcompensating the Foles injury. Houston blew an 11-point lead and scored with fewer than 40 seconds left and allowed New Orleans to quickly move into long FG position and made a 58 yarder for a heartbreaking finish. I think that is going to take some of the steam out of this Houston team, while Minshew looks like the real deal. Take the points on Jacksonville for a Max Play.
