NFL Betting Preview: Will the Jacksonville Jaguars Cover the Spread Against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13?
The NFL Week 13 matchup between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts promises to be an exciting AFC South showdown. Despite no explicit Week 13 spread or prediction being available, the competitive context suggests a closely fought game.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, who struggled with a 4-13 SU (straight up) record last season, are showing signs of potential upside for 2025. With improved coaching and roster upgrades, bettors are favoring the over for the Jaguars' season win total, set at 7.5, reflecting optimism about their competitiveness and their ability to win against teams like the Colts.
On the other hand, the Indianapolis Colts finished last season with an 8-9 record, and their win total odds are also set at 7.5. They are priced at +370 to win the AFC South and +12000 to win the Super Bowl. Historically, the Colts have had a slight edge over the Jaguars, but the latter is showing signs of progress after roster and coaching changes.
The Colts performed strongly at home last season, with a 5-3 record, but struggled on the road (3-6). The Jaguars, despite a poor SU performance, improved their ATS (against the spread) record to 9-7-1, indicating their ability to keep games close, even when losing or winning less often outright.
Analysts highlight Jacksonville’s potential with QB Trevor Lawrence returning to form and new coach Coen’s influence as key factors for exceeding win expectations. The Colts have made a strategic QB decision with Daniel Jones, aiming to maintain parity in a weak AFC South to potentially reach the playoffs again with an 8-9 type record.
The game will take place in Jacksonville, Florida, at an open stadium. The weather forecast for the day is partly cloudy with a high of 72 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 22 degrees Fahrenheit, with a precipitation chance of 1% and a humidity of 66%.
