Broncos

Jaguars

Week 8 has the Denver Broncos are up against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Both teams were coming off disappointing seasons in 2021, so all eyes will be on how this one goes. We look at how the NFL betting odds envision this one, while also offering an in-depth analysis of these two teams, be it for betting on an NFL Week 8 spread or any other that tickles your fancy.

The team from Mile High could not be said to be playing it safe this year. They saw a franchise quarterback and snagged him. Russell Wilson is a bona fide weapon, offensive leader, and Super Bowl champion. The last time the team from Mile High went for such a player, it went rather well, with 4-time MVP Peyton Manning leading them to a title and changing their franchise forever.

The Jags will be hoping that the sacking of former coach Urban Meyer is in the distant past by this point, and that new Head Coach Doug Pederson has finally got them moving in the right direction. He has a Super Bowl ring and should be a great boon to second-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence, whose potential knows no bounds. They also added Christian Kirk on a big-money WR contract and will hope that in combination with fellow wideout Marvin Jones, he can help them improve on the 27th-ranked offense from a year ago. Let’s just hope there’s no NFL injury report in the future to rain on their parade!

The overall record between these two teams is locked at 7-7, but Denver is coming off a 23-13-win last September against the team from Duval. Can they edge ahead in the head-to-head race?

Now that you know the crucial information for Broncos vs Jaguars, all we can do is wait for the big matchup and see who emerges as the winner. If you choose to wager on NFL games, we advise backing the Broncos, whose roster looks playoff ready and should outlast the Jags.
