- The Jaguarsโ 2024 preseason win total is set at 8.5 wins at BetMGM.
- The Jaguars have finished on nine wins in two straight seasons.
- Will an inconsistent defense plague Jacksonville to a losing campaign?
For the 2024 NFL season, the Jaguarsโ win total sits at 8.5 at the BetMGM online sportsbook.ย
Jacksonville started their 2023 campaign strong and entered their bye week at 6-2. However, they dropped six of their final nine to finish 9-8, good for second in the AFC South.ย
After missing the postseason, Jacksonvilleโs offseason focused on improving the offense, particularly at wide receiver and on the offensive line.ย
Hereโs a look at the NFL betting lines for Jacksonvilleโs 2024 win total.ย
Jaguars Win Total Odds
The Jaguarsโ season win total is set at 8.5 games.ย
Based on current pricing, the Jaguars are predicted to finish with nine or more wins. Jacksonville is -115 to finish over 8.5 wins, an implied probability of 53.5%.ย
Conversely, the Jaguars are -105 to finish with eight or fewer wins, an implied probability of 51.2%.ย
Here are the 2024 NFL win totals for all AFC South teams:
- Houston Texans: 9.5 Wins
- Indianapolis Colts: 8.5 Wins
- Jacksonville Jaguars: 8.5 Wins
- Tennessee Titans: 6.5 Wins

As evidenced by the current odds, predicting the Jaguarsโ season is somewhat difficult.ย
While most of their offseason focus came on improving the offense, itโs my opinion their defensive record is what determines this teamโs season.ย
Jacksonville lost corner Darious Williams to the Rams.ย
Based on PFF grades, Williams finished with the second-best defensive grade last year, amongst players that played at least 50% of snaps.ย
That departure is offset by the arrival of Arik Armstead on the defensive line. Still, beyond Armstead and Josh Allen, there arenโt many players on this defense I trust.ย
A lack of star power on defense saw Jacksonville run hot and cold last season.ย
In their first eight games, Jacksonville ranked fourth in defensive EPA per play and allowed only 19.5 points per game.ย
From Week 10 onward, they dropped to 24th in defensive EPA per play and allowed 23.9 points per game.ย
In that nine-game sample, Jacksonville produced only one performance where they ranked 19th or better for the week in defensive EPA per play (Week 16 vs. Carolina).ย
While additions at offensive line should render Jacksonville a dual-threat offense โ they ranked 30th in rush EPA per play last year โ I still have questions about this defense.ย
As a result, itโs a lean to the under on a team whose ceiling, in my opinion, is nine wins.
