NFL Betting Week 3 Odds and Trends on Jets vs. Patriots

New uniforms can’t disguise the fact that the Jets remain one of the most inept franchises in the NFL. To begin with, the Jets are the Jets and are poorly managed. Adding to their betting on NFL problems is that starting quarterback Sam Darnold remains out. All of which does not bode well for a road game at the dynasty known as the Patriots. More emphatically the defending world champions remain in top form. Head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady again partner for the best franchise in pro sports. Belichick passed on coaching the Jets for a reason.

New York Jets

Last Monday the Jets lost at home to Cleveland 23-3. Without Darnold, in the lineup, their offense was rendered as completely helpless. NFL metrics portend what should be a long season for the green. To illuminate New York ranks 31st for total offense and for scoring. Defensively they are a mediocre 20th overall and 23rd against the pass. Of great concern is that head coach Adam Gase flamed out at Miami in 2018. Increasingly doubts are growing about his ability to dig the Jets out. So too is the Jets lackluster history working against them with the betting public.

Players to Watch: QB Luke Falk (80% COMP, 198 YDS, 7.9 AVG, 0 TD, 0 INT, 99.7 RTG), RB Le’Veon Bell (38 RSH, 128 YDS, 3.4 YPC, 0 TD, 16 REC, 93 YDS, 5.8 YPC, 1 TD), WR Jamison Crowder (18 REC, 139 YDS, 7.7 YPC, 0 TD), WR Robby Anderson (7 REC, 104 YDS, 14.9 YPC, 0 TD)

New England Patriots

New England is 2-0 both straight up and against the spread with two under. By contrast, the Jets are 0-2 straight up and with the odds with two under. New England is coming off a 43-0 payout at hapless Miami in week two. Overall the Patriots boast the top-ranked defense in the NFL. Naturally, the offense is doing its part too with a ranking of second for points scored.

Players to Watch: QB Tom Brady (68.8 COMP%, 605 YDS, 9.5 AVG, 5 TD, 0 INT, 124.8 RTG), RB Sony Michel (36 RSH, 99 YDS, 2.8 YPC, 1 TD), RB Rex Burkhead (13 RSH, 65 YDS, 5.0 YPC, 7 REC, 88 YDS, 12.6 YPC), RB James White (7 RSH, 36 YDS, 5.1 YPC, 0 TD, 8 REC, 9.4 YPC, 1 TD), WR Philip Dorsett (7 REC 134 YDS, 19.1 YPC, 2 TD), WR Julian Edelman (10 REC, 134 YDS, 13.4 YPC, 0 TD), WR Josh Gordon (5 REC, 92 YDS, 18.4 YPC, 1 TD), PK Stephen Gostkowski (5-6 FG, 7-9 XP)
