Buffalo Bills @ New York Jets – Winning NFL Picks Against The Spread
Sunday, October 18th, 2009The pros at FiveStarPick.com are coming off a monster Saturday going 3-0 against the spread for our members. As a matter of fact, we are 14-1 against the spread in our last 15. Damn that’s some good stuff!!! If you want to dive deeper into the FiveStar legend, our members went 5-0 against the spread in the NFL last week…But enough about us. Today we are giving our members two (2) plays in the NFL. The focus of this preview is the 4pm matchup between the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets. Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Jets as 9-point favorites with a total of 36.5.
Coach Rex Ryan is looking for redemption. After taking the Jets to their first 3-0 start in years, they have lost their last two (2) games both straight up and against the spread. Today, the Jets may have an ideal chance to change course against the crappy Buffalo Bills who are on their own 3-game losing streak.
New York (3-2 straight up, 3-2 against the spread) won there first three games behind a superb defense that allowed 11.0 PPG and 256.0 YPG while forcing 7 turnovers. Ryan’s Jets had the same swagger he instilled in his defense in Baltimore, where he spent the last 10 years. The Jets defense, however, seems to have lost their swagger in consecutive losses. The unit allowed 343 yards in a 24-10 defeat at New Orleans on Oct. 4 and gave up season highs in passing yards (262) and total yardage (413) en route to a 31-27 defeat at Miami on Monday night. (FiveStarPick.com gave its members the Dolphins +2.5 and the Over 36 in that game…both winners.)
Despite the back-to-back losses, New York is tied for first in the AFC East with the Pats and the Buffalo Bills (1-4 straight up, 2-3 against the spread) might just be the ticket to getting that Jet defense back on track.
Buffalo has lost their last two games to winless teams while totaling an abysmal 494 yards of total offense and turning the ball over six times. The Bills committed 13 penalties in a 6-3 loss to Cleveland in Week 5, which brings the Bills win total to 4 in their last 17 games under Dick Jauron. In addition, Buffalo has been outscored 71-20 during their three-game skid and Edwards hasn’t been able to open up a passing attack with wide receivers Terrell Owens and Lee Evans. They each have 12 catches and a touchdown while combining for 361 yards.
