Carolina at Jacksonville

There is a relatively high posted total for this matchup due to Carolina's first two games in which they scored 27 points in each game, but that won't be enough to make up for the weak Jacksonville offense. The Jaguars did beat New England in Week 1 due to some big plays, but they were back to normal in last Thursday's 12-8 loss to Tampa Bay. Blake Bortles was 8-of-13 for 65 yards, but his starting job is on the line as he has shown no improvement from last year's disappointing season. Chad Henne was 6-of-10 for 44 yards and Brandon Allen went 10-of-15 for 144 yards. The Jaguars rushed for only 57 yards on 20 carries and didn't score until the fourth quarter and two of their points were scored on a safety. Jacksonville coach Doug Marrone is 4-7 UNDER in preseason with the Bills and Jaguars and Jacksonville curiously is 7-0 UNDER its last seven Thursday preseason games, including last week. Cam Newton plans to play only a series or two in his first appearance since shoulder surgery in March. Take advantage of an inflated number and play the UNDER.
