The Buffalo Bills (5-2) didn’t need to score on their final possession against the Miami Dolphins last week to win, but they did need to score to cover the spread. Josh Allen and the Bills are two-score favorites against another Florida opponent this weekend when they take on the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-6). Jacksonville needed to go back to the drawing board after a lopsided 31-7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks following a Week 7 bye.

Week 9 NFL picks for Bills vs. Jaguars
Before entering any Jaguars vs. Bills picks, you’ll want to see the NFL predictions from the advanced computer model at SportsLine. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up almost $7,800 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception six-plus years ago. The model enters Week 9 of the 2021 season on an incredible 128-86 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.
The model also ranked in the Top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past five years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94 percent of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
For Jaguars vs. Bills, the model is picking Buffalo to cover the 14.5-point spread in over 60 percent of simulations. Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott sent a message last week that he’s willing to throw a bone to Bills backers, so a team that gives up margin like Jacksonville is in trouble. Five of the Jaguars’ six losses have been by double digits; three of them have been by 16 points or more.
The Jaguars have been a middle-of-the-road defense against the pass, but they have had a tough time generating pressure on opposing quarterbacks. That likely means trouble against a Bills team that has converted nearly half of its third downs in 2021. The Jaguars defense has just two interceptions this season, and Buffalo’s Allen has completed 65 percent of his passes and only thrown three picks.
Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence will be on his own this week in the backfield without running back James Robinson, who will miss Sunday’s showdown. The Bills have had the best pass defense in the NFL this season, and only allow an average of four third down conversions per game. Plus, Buffalo is 6-1 against the spread in its last seven games when playing on the road against Jacksonville.
