(301) New England Patriots at (302) New York Jets
Going to lock this in now while there's still -6 out there. This is a horrible matchup for the Patriots who will struggle to do anything other than run the ball for minimal gains.
While I do think the Titans probably should have covered for us on Sunday the Jets completely took over that game and deserved to win.
I think the Jets are on the ascent while it's very possible a bad Patriots team has hit the peak of their season with a win over the Bengals and then an overtime loss to the Seahawks.
I still think the Pats are one of the worst teams in football, I can't see them posing a huge threat on the road on a short week.
Additional Analysis:
Went into detail on this game on Spaces currently pinned to my X page but will try to summarize here. First, teams that played OT on Sunday and have to play on Thursday have a horrific cover percentage and it should be even tougher for a young team with a rookie coach. It also looks like the Patriots have a banged up offensive line, their only chance here was to run the ball since they have zero downfield threat whatsoever so this is going to be a huge challenge for the Patriots to generate offense.
Jets offense has improved over the first two weeks and I could see a Jets breakout here.
Play on Jets -6 (-115) for 4% (or 4 units)
