I think in the last year the Hawks win at home by an average of 26 points.
They are giving 20 to the worst team in the NFL.

There really is no other play for this game other then the Hawks.

And im a lover of NFL dogs. 65% of my plays are on teams getting points.

Maybe not a good idea to throw this one out just because they are a historically high favorite.

You might be right...I think the Eagles were somewhere around 20 pt dogs when they lost to the Pats by only 7....

NE -24.5 against Philli and failed to cover.
NE -22.5 against Miami that same year and failed to cover the spread.

Jags and the points all day long! They MAY indeed end up losing by more than 20 but taking the jags plus 20 is the only sane choice a player can make.

It's entirely possible the Jags do not cross mid field all game.

I know on the surface betting -20 on an NFL game seems boarder line insane.
I can count the NFL games on one hand not using all fingers the amount of times I bet a NFL fav or more then 6.5 points in a season.

With all that being said it is very hard to over look the average margin of Victory for the Hawks at home in games started by Russell Wilson.

It is 26 points a game.

The spread in this game is 20.

And never in any of those games mentioned above have they played a team this bad.

I may or may not play this game but if I do there is only one side I would consider.

They just beat the 49ers by 26. Why does anybody think it's unreasonable they will beat the Jags by less?

Niners only got 3 in Seattle.... Jags have 11 points on the season, and the TD against the Raiders was under 3min left in the game

The funny thing is when the pats team was favored that high against the eagles and miami both those team would be more than a TD fav against these jags.

The only angle for jags backers is look ahead and seattle taking the foot off the peddle. Because you know full well jags are not scoring more than 14pts in this one
