need to build some momentum again with the playoffs only two weeks away. Luckily, the Jacksonville Jaguars (+16) present the perfect opportunity for that.
The team is not only entering the contest with a 2-13 record while being led by an interim head coach — offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell — it also is struggling with a Covid-19 outbreak; numerous starters and key reserves in all three phases are currently on the Coronavirus reserve list and questionable to play on Sunday.
Accordingly, the Patriots are currently listed as 16-point favorites (via DraftKings Sportsbook).
