Last Updated on December 21, 2022 4:06 pm by Gambyl Nation Editorial Team

We have reached week 16 of the 2022-23 NFL season, and yes, the time has passed quickly this season, but we are on the eve of the postseason, so the emotions will be much greater.

As we reach the week, it only means that the teams have to play their last three games of the regular season; that is, they will have to spend their remaining cartridges in this final stretch if they want to achieve the coveted qualification for the postseason.

By now, we know of six teams that have already sealed their ticket to the playoffs. The Eagles, Cowboys, and Bills have assured their place in the next phase, in the worst-case scenario, through the wild card. Still, it is very likely that in this week 16, the Eagles and Bills will become divisional champions.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs, Vikings, and 49ers are already divisional champions and will play their last three regular-season games with much caution.

In this week, 16, the Jacksonville Jaguars and the New York Jets will play a brutal duel on their way to the NFL Playoffs.

Why Bet the Jaguars

The Jaguars are coming off a surprising 34-40 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15. However, they have not yet secured a postseason berth, as they are in second place in the AFC South, just one game behind the Titans.

That is why it is so important for the Jaguars to win in their last three games since they could be divisional champions if some of the Titans’ results combine.

In addition, their next two games against the Texans and Titans will be decisive for the team and their dream of being in the postseason. This means that Doug Pederson, Trevor Lawrence, Zay Jones, and the rest of the team should have a perfect three weeks to play in mid-January.

Trevor Lawrence continues to carry the load for the Jaguars’ offense with a 66% average in pass completions for 3,520 yards and 24 touchdowns. In addition, he has been able to rack up 239 yards in carries and four touchdowns.

On the other hand, WR Christian Kirk, with 73 receptions, has 966 yards accumulated, for an average of 13.2 yards per reception and seven touchdowns.

Why Bet the Jets

On the other hand, the Jets look like the chronicle of a death foretold because despite a spectacular and surprising start of the season, where they beat the Dolphins, Packers, and even the Bills, they have lost in the last three weeks, leaving their classification in the hands of other teams.

In their next two games after this one, they will have to face the Seahawks and the Dolphins, the latter being the game that could be definitive for them regarding their possible return to the playoffs since the 2010 season.

The Jets were on the verge of a victory in Week 15 against the Lions, with a spectacular defense that was able to hold one of the most prolific offenses in the NFL in recent years to only 13 points in the first 58 minutes of the game.

Unfortunately for them, Jared Goff made another timely throw as he has since Week 10, giving the Lions a crushing 20-17 victory.

The Jets know that by winning the remaining three games, they could clinch their ticket to the postseason via the American Conference wild card, but they will have to play outstanding games and, above all, bordering on perfection.

We all know that the Jets’ main problem this season has been injuries to their quarterbacks, but if they manage to keep Zach Wilson healthy from now on, they could have an advantage regarding their offenses.

Final Betting Analysis: Jaguars vs. Jets

Undoubtedly, we will see a clash of titans in this Thursday Night Football. All eyes will be on this game, as both teams need a perfect end to the season to stay alive.

On MyBookie.ag, we can see an identical Moneyline in this game with the Jaguars at -110, while the Jets also start at -110.

Whatever the case, we consider that the Jets have a slightly better squad, and seem posed for breaking their bad streak at home this week. So, for this match, our selection is a New York Jets victory, and we suggest the UNDER bet at 39.

Look for a straight win on the Moneyline Jets. For example, if you put $100 on the Jets at -110, you’ll be looking at a $90.91 win with a total payout of $190.91.
