Herbert's pick is up.....see post# 5!!!
current line,
NY Jets - PK
Ten - PK
O/U 41
It's hard for me to like the Titans in this game, even on a teaser. They have lost 3 in a row and 5 of the last 6 games. 3 of their 4 wins have been by 3, 3 and 1 pt which makes a 7 pt teaser with the Jets +7 look really good. Plus, the Jets actually have something to play for as there is still an outside chance that they can grab the last AFC wild card spot. A win would put them at 7-7, tied with Pittsburgh and a game behind Cincy in the race for the #6 seed. Indianapolis, at 9-5, appears to have the upper hand for the 1st wild card, however, if the Jets win out and Indy loses their last 2 games the Jets own the tie-breaker due to a Week 6 win over the Colts.
The Jets have won 3 of their last 4 games and this is a team they can beat. 5 of their 6 wins have come against teams with losing records and 5 of their 7 losses have been against teams that will be in the playoffs with another, Pittsburgh, a possibility to make the play-offs. Plus, the Jets have the much better defense at #8 overall vs Tennessee at #28 overall.
It's hard to count on the Jets to score lots of pts but Ten has given up 23 or more in 11 of 13 games and only Oakland and Buffalo have given up more total pts in the entire NFL, and Tennessee has actually averaged nearly 21 ppg, although 3 particular games skew that upwards a bit. I'm tempted to go UN 48 though and may go both ways on the total because I think there's a decent chance it will fall somewhere between 34 and 48, but I do like the Jets +7 and possibly even at a PK. We'll see what Herbert has to say as I am waiting on his pick as we speak.
More later and feel free to comment.
