The Jacksonville Jaguars (11-4) will fly from the Rocky Mountains to the Midwest to face the Indianapolis Colts (8-6 at the time of this writing) at 1:00 p.m. EST on Sunday, Dec. 28.<\/p>\n
According to FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a>, the Jaguars are 6.5-point favorites and the total is set at 45.5 points.<\/p>\n The Colts play tonight on Monday Night Football against the 10-4 San Francisco 49ers. If they lose, the Jaguars will clinch a spot in the 2025-26 NFL playoffs.<\/p>\n Indianapolis has dropped five of its last six games, including two straight since Daniel Jones was lost for the season at EverBank Stadium<\/a>. Colts general managers Chris Ballard and head coach Shane Steichen decided to call up their old buddy Philip Rivers \u2014 who is literally a grandfather \u2014 to step in for Jones. Last week\u2019s result at Lumen Field: 18 for 27 (66.7%), 120 yards (4.4 YPA), 1 TD, 1 INT, 73.1 passer rating.<\/p>\n Rivers\u2019 average pass traveled 5.9 air yards.<\/p>\n Tonight\u2019s primetime game will provide a preview for Jaguars fans, although most of Duval County probably couldn\u2019t care less about their divisional opponent (outside of the result\u2019s effect on clinching scenarios<\/a>).<\/p>\n
