...the Broncos are a 4 TD favorite over the Jaguars their next game. FOUR FREAKIN' TOUCHDOWNS. lol, who's laying down cash on THIS one...?


It's official (well, as official as a gambling line that competes with other gambling lines can be). The Jaguars-Broncos game in Denver next Sunday went off at -28 for the Broncos on Sunday, making it the largest point spread in the history of the league.

While I saw at least one -27 out there Sunday night, Pregame.com's RJ Bell has it at exactly four touchdowns.

This spread, of course, is subject to change, depending on whether money comes in on Denver or on Jacksonville.

But this extraordinary line has been two weeks in the making. We told you about the possibility of a four-touchdown spread last week when Bovada's sportsbook manager Kevin Bradley said, “Before [Week 4's game], I would have said it would be three touchdowns but considering [those] results, the fact that Seattle easily covered 19.5 at home against Jacksonville, and how our bettors have been pounding Denver every week and betting against the Jags like it is free money, this spread is looking closer to four touchdowns.”

The largest spread in history before this week occurred Dec. 5, 1976 when the Steelers were -27 against the Buccaneers. Pittsburgh won that game 42-0.

I know, that denver wont do this, but this is a great game to establish the running game... Give Montee ball, Hillman, and moreno their touches(not just carries)... They should all get at least 10 touches each...

My guess is if Broncos get up a couple of touchdowns this is exactly what they will do. The Broncos have used some opportunities already this year to get especially Hillman and Ball some touches late in games to help get them ready for later in the year.

I could see Jacksonville being so disrespected by the spread that they played their hearts out defensively and don't lose by 28. They'll lose....but they won't be disrespected.

You would think, but i would want more use of the RBs... I just dont expect Montee ball to be used enough... I want at least 50% of the plays to be running...

Sounds like David vs Goliath. We all know how that turned out. In other words, that's why you play the game. The donkeys will likely cover the spread but there is a part of me that thinks that the jags will keep it somewhat close. Isn't Blackmon back this week?

Typically Peyton stays in blowouts too long, but I could see them sitting some starters by the second half in this one... Could work in favor of taking jags and points.

I seem to recall another time the Jags went to Denver as heavy underdogs. Ask Elway. He'll remember.

Seriously though, I wouldn't touch the 28. Denver could be up 40 by halftime and decide to take every starter out. Next thing you know the final is something like 42-17.

I agree. I wouldn't go anywhere near a line that big.

I could see that. I mean as bad as the jags are, they're still an NFL team with NFL players. Of course, they also could already be in offseason mode so who the hell knows?

ouch. but yeah, i remember. Donks the big time HEAVY favorite, and the Jags let the air out of their bubble with a RESOUNDING pop...

exactly. i think it'd be foolish to bet actual money either way on this game...

With the Jags trading Monroe, Joeckel breaking his leg, and Gabbert out, this could get over 30 before game day.

Of course Gabbert being out could push it down.
