Who's favored

LineJAX -6Total 44.5

Both ESPN's predictor and the line lean Jaguars.

We don't make our own pick. These are ESPN's and the sportsbook's published numbers.

What is the win chance?

ESPN's matchup predictor, built on its Football Power Index. It simulates the game many times, and the percentage is how often each team wins. It is ESPN's number, not ours.

How do I read the line?

The point spread from a sportsbook. "GB -3" means the Packers are expected to win by about 3 points. The total (over/under) is the expected combined score of both teams.

Deadline and roster notes in previews and 60-second reads come from official announcements and cited reporting. Other written text is generated from the ESPN data and adds no numbers of its own.
