The bet on Mike Gesicki to score a touchdown at any time during the Cincinnati Bengals vs Jacksonville Jaguars game appears risky based on his recent performance and hit rates. Gesicki has not scored a touchdown in his last five games overall, which translates to a 0/5 hit rate. His performance at home is slightly better with a 1/5 hit rate in the last five games, but it's not ideal. Over the last 10 games, his hit rate has only been 1/10 overall and at home. His overall hit rate is 14/82, indicating he scores a touchdown in approximately 17% of his games. His best performance seems to be against the Jaguars with a 50% hit rate overall, but this is based on only two games. Therefore, while the model gives a slight edge (0.179), the historical statistics suggest Gesicki's chances to score are quite low.
