The 10 highest spreads in history....faves are 3-7 so taking the points is usually the play. I don't know. Jax is very bad.

Looks like its 27.5 across the board on donbest.com
I disagree with Joe. I think if anything Denver's D will be mad n play better going home. Even though I'm totally against Denver as far as winning the AFC, this is a horrible Jags team.
I like Denver 52-7.......

The biggest problem with a spread like this in the NFL is unlike college there is no reason to win style points and run it up or even have much more than a vanilla game plan. I can see Denver being up 42-10 and just starting running it up the middle and playing prevent and Jacksonville scoring a late backdoor cover TD. Certainly if there was an incentive to Denver could beat them by 40.

I should have added something like this. I would never bet Denver in this spot because something like 35-0 at half n then Denver shuts it down. And you end up with 35-10 or 7 and no cover.

Comes in around 52-10 or so is my guess. Broncos offense has publicly stated the goal is to score a TD every possession. I know this is the goal of all offenses but they back it up. Likely we will see Peyton sit halfway through the third quarter, they should be at 45 or more by then. Defense holds up their end if Woodyard and Ayers are back in which it looks like they will be.

When it mattered, yes. Playing without Champ, Von, Ayers, Harris AND Woodyard I would say they did OK.

This Jags team has no Romo, Bryant or Witten to deal with.

Huge trap game for Denver @ Dallas. I'm surprised they even won. How can you compare Denver @ Dallas to them @ home vs the worst team in the NFL??
