Dan Caesar’s Thursday night NFL pick

Kickoff: 5:25 p.m., NFL Network

Records: Tennessee 2-12, 1-6 away. Jacksonville 2-12, 2-5 home.

Line: Jaguars by 3 O/U: 40 1/2

Synopsis: The Grinch known as the NFL schedule-maker has delivered a lump – make that a bushel – of coal for the finale of the Thursday night schedule as a pair of 2-12 teams meet in what means nothing other than positioning for the draft (Oakland and Tampa Bay also have just two wins and are the other contenders). Tennessee is down to third-string QB Charlie Whitehurst. Pick: Jaguars 20-13
