  • Based on preseason odds, the Jacksonville Jaguars are +120 to make the postseason in 2024-25.
  • Jacksonville has produced two straight winning seasons under Doug Pederson.
  • Why a brutal early schedule makes Jacksonville a good live betting candidate.

Based on NFL odds and Jaguars playoff odds, the Jacksonville Jaguars are predicted to miss the postseason this year.ย 

The Jaguars, who finished second in the AFC South last season, are +120 to make the playoffs this year. That price implies a probability of 45.5%.ย 

Meanwhile, head coach Doug Pedersonโ€™s team, which won the division in 2022, is -145 to miss the playoffs. That implies a probability of 59.2%.

Prediction: Will the Jacksonville Jaguars Make the Playoffs?ย 

If you predict the Jaguars will make the playoffs, itโ€™s best to wait. However, I predict they miss the postseason.ย 

Of their first 12 games, eight come against teams that made the playoffs last year.ย 

Their first six games come against the Dolphins, Browns, Bills, Texans, Colts, and Bears (oh my). If you expect Jacksonville to emerge under .500, a better price is down the road.ย

When Was the Last Time the Jacksonville Jaguars Won the Super Bowl?ย 

The Jaguars are one of 12 teams to have never won the Super Bowl.ย 

However, Jacksonville hasnโ€™t operated for the entirety of the Super Bowl era, joining the NFL as an expansion franchise in 1995.ย
