The Jacksonville Jaguars will face the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon in an attempt to keep their postseason aspirations alive. Jacksonville has won three of its last five games, aided by Tennessee’s three-game losing streak, to reclaim first place in the AFC South. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are on a four-game winning streak, but they are still two games behind Philadelphia in the NFC East standings.

The game will begin at 1 p.m. ET. The current Jaguars vs. Cowboys odds from Caesars Sportsbook show Dallas as a 4-point favourite, with the over/under set at 47.5. Before making any Cowboys vs. Jaguars predictions, check out the NFL predictions from SportsLine’s model.

Why the Jaguars are capable of covering

After winning three of its previous five games, Jacksonville has suddenly found itself in the AFC playoff picture. Tennessee has lost three straight games, including a two-touchdown loss to the Jaguars last week. Trevor Lawrence, the team’s quarterback, has largely been responsible for the late-season surge, passing for 10 touchdowns and zero picks in his last five games.

In last week’s 36-22 win over the Titans, he completed 30 of 42 passes for 368 yards and three touchdowns. Over the last three weeks, Dallas has struggled to fulfil betting expectations, failing to cover the spread in wins over the Giants and Texans. The Cowboys have a game against the Philadelphia Eagles coming up, so a poor performance would be disastrous.

Why the Cowboys are capable of covering

Dallas enters this game as one of the hottest teams in the NFL, having won four straight games. During that time, the Cowboys have averaged more than 37 points a game, and they have scored the third-most points per game in the league this season. Running backs Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott have helped quarterback Dak Prescott by rushing for 15 touchdowns in their last six games.

Prescott has thrown multiple interceptions in three of his previous five starts, which gives Dallas some breathing room as the season unfolds. The Cowboys have also been strong defensively, allowing the fifth-fewest yards per game—linebacker Micah Parsons has the third-most sacks in the NFL (12). Dallas has won nine straight games in December and covered the spread in 11 of its previous 14 road games.
