Jaguars Are 8.5-Point Road Favorites at Baltimore, and Bhayshul Tuten Is Coming Off the Best Game of His Career
Jacksonville is an 8.5-point road favorite for Thursday night at Baltimore with a moneyline of -410, according to DraftKings odds carried in Black and Teal's early file - and running back Bhayshul Tuten arrives off a 104-yard rushing, two-touchdown game against the Colts that earned the highest Pro Football Focus grade on the team.
The oddsmakers have priced Thursday night, and they have priced it for Jacksonville. The Jaguars are an 8.5-point road favorite at the Baltimore Ravens, with a moneyline of -410 against Baltimore's +320 and an over/under of 43.5, according to the DraftKings odds carried in Black and Teal's early odds file, opened directly by the Sports Desk this run. The file ties the spread to the Ravens' quarterback room: Baltimore is without Lamar Jackson, who has been placed on injured reserve, and backup Tyler Huntley may not play after a toe injury in Week 8, which could leave 2026 undrafted free agent Joe Fagnano to start.
The other half of the file is a Jacksonville player arriving hot. Bhayshul Tuten, who had already proven a capable replacement for Travis Etienne, broke out against Indianapolis: 16 carries for 104 yards and a touchdown, plus two catches for 55 yards and another touchdown. His Pro Football Focus grade of 90.4 was the highest among Jaguars players, the file reported, and head coach Liam Coen was pleased with the outing, noting Tuten was more patient and showcased an ability to break tackles.
Action News Jax's Dan Griffis, noted in the file on Monday, has Tuten on pace for 1,634 yards from scrimmage and 15 touchdowns this season. Black and Teal's own bold prediction - labeled here as the site's prediction, not a result - is that Tuten produces 140 total yards and three touchdowns on Thursday night against a Baltimore run defense the file rates a bit better than the Colts'.
The desk's earlier files carry the rest of the short week: the 100-hour turnaround plan (SQ-20261102-029), the injury bill the Colts win left behind (SQ-20261102-039) and the Ravens' quarterback picture (SQ-20261102-011). This file is the market's verdict and the breakout back - kickoff Thursday is 8:15 p.m. in Baltimore, and odds are refreshed periodically and can change before the game, as the source file itself cautions.
