Neat little site I found. Strange seeing the Jaguars as favourites to win 2 weeks in a row.

How do they come up with 89 percent?

The Jaguars were 2 1/2 point underdogs against the Tita
ns virtually everywhere. I have no clue why she was thinking it was a "pick 'em," and I'm fairly sure she'll be unable to provide a link.

The Chargers are not a good team. 

 

I expect the Jags to win the game.

Doesn't really matter where she got her info. The thread is talking about the "expert's" pick, not the betting line.

Teams get 3 points for playing at home. The Jaguars were favored by less than 3 points for a home game. If the game was played at a neutral site, Tennessee would have been the favorite.

I noticed Schlereth and company picking Jags over SD on ESPN yesterday.

Though - I hesitate to call them 'experts.'

Of course not all so-called "experts" know anything about the Jaguars.

I'm not talking about betting. I'm talking about "expert" picks.

Great... you know the rules.  That doesn't make it a pick-um. When it's a pick um... well, it says "pick".

I never saw it spelled that way. Everywhere I look it is "pick 'em."

You need to refresh... I actually edited that to just read "pick" which is all you ever actually see.

That's what Vegas gives home field advantage.

That is why there is an "ignore" posts option (which I am using).
