Chargers vs. Jaguars Odds, Picks, Predictions for Wild Card Weekend: Can Young QBs Deliver on Big Stage?

The Los Angeles Chargers and the Jacksonville Jaguars are playing in the Wild Card Weekend. Justin Herbert and Trevor Lawrence are the young quarterbacks who will play for the Chargers. The Chargers won four of their final five regular-season games to claim their first playoff berth since 2018. Jacksonville clinched the AFC South title last week with a dramatic 20-16 victory over Tennesee.

Chargers vs. Jaguars is on Saturday, Jan. 14 at 8:15 p.m. ET at TIAA Bank Field, Jacksonville, FL. The weather is 50 degrees, 0% chance of precipitation, 5-mph winds.

The line for the Chargers vs. Jaguars has moved up to Chargers -2.5. L.A. is getting 49% of the bets on the spread, while 51% support the underdog Jaguars. The total has ticked up from 47 to 47.

The Chargers and Jaguars are playing in the Wild Card round. The Chargers' defense has been very good recently. Jacksonville's defense was much less effective. They lost to the Chargers in September. The game is expected to be low-scoring. It's possible the teams will score in mid-20s. I'm comfortable making the Over a four-star play up to 49.

The total is 47.5, but the price is a half-point higher at PointsBet.
