Thus far, Mayfield has thrown for 3315 yards while making 466 attempts. His completion rate for the season is 63.5%, and he holds a passer rating of 94.7. Even though Mayfield put together an awesome game last week, I don’t see him following that up and like the under at 235.5 passing yards.

  • The Prop: Baker Mayfield Under 235.5 Passing Yards (-116)

Buccaneers VS. Jaguars Predictions

Regarding the point spread lines, there has been some movement. Initially, Jacksonville opened as the 2.5-point favorite. However, the current favorite is Tampa Bay with a spread of 3.

Jacksonville’s secondary did a good job limiting Baltimore’s passing game in their previous game. Despite being 3-point underdogs on the road, I’m confident in their ability to cover against Tampa Bay.

The Pick: Jaguars +3 | -115 at Fanduel Sportsbook
