And it&#8217;s all because Pollard needs 66 rushing yards to hit a contract incentive. <\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>The Jaguars are the only team in the NFL not to allow any player to rush for at least 75 yards in a single game this season. In fact, they have faced a running back with a rushing yard prop of at least 60.5 yards eight times this season, and those running backs are 8-0 to the Under.<\/p>\n<p>The game script should also help us here, but the Titans may not care too much about that and simply force-feed Pollard for his incentive. If you can find a Spears Under, I would prefer that play, but I also love getting Pollard Under this huge number given the matchup against a defense that will be playing to win.<\/p>\n<p>Titans vs Jaguars same-game parlay<\/p>\n<p>The Jags are 3-0 against the spread as favorites by more than six points, and the Titans are 1-4 ATS in division games.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I am taking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/football\/nfl\/players\/198403\/parker-washington\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Parker Washington;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Parker Washington<\/a> to find the end zone.
