Brandon Staley chose to play some of his regulars against Denver even though the Chargers had locked into the No. 5 seed and it backfired as star wide receiver Mike Williams suffered a back injury and is day-to-day. Justin Herbert completed 25 of 37 for 273 yards and two touchdowns, but the Chargers ran for only 59 yards on 22 carries against the Broncos. The Chargers had gone UNDER five in a row before Saturday's game while allowing an average of only 13.6 points in that span. Jacksonville went UNDER its last three games of the regular season, including its 20-16 division-clinching win over Tennessee in which the Jaguars defense was the major factor as it came up with the big plays when needed. Jacksonville allows 20.6 points per game compared to 22.6 for Los Angeles, which is the third-worst rushing team in the NFL with just 89.6 yards per game. Jacksonville is 19-9 UNDER its past 28 games versus teams with winning records and 11-3 UNDER overall its past 14 home games. Also, the Jags have stayed UNDER 15 of 21 after an ATS loss. The Chargers have stayed UNDER four of five playoff games. This will be Trevor Lawrence's first postseason experience. Take the UNDER as a Max Play.
