Eagles at Jets odds, lines, picks and predictions
Prediction
Jets 23, Eagles 16
Money line
The Jets (-200) are looking to cap off an undefeated preseason, and rookie QB Zach Wilson has no turnovers, no sacks, no pre-snap penalties and no three-and-outs so far in two appearances. While that’s promising, the two opponents (New York Giants and Packers) haven’t started any top-notch defensive linemen.
As such, the Jets being rather moderate favorites remain risky, especially costing two times your potential return.
AVOID and play the spread instead.
Against the spread
The JETS -3.5 (-107) are worth a look laying the points. It isn’t so much that they have been impressive. They have been, but it’s more a bet against the Eagles +3.5 (-115). Philadelphia was pounded 35-0 last time out and the offense has really struggled.
Over/Under
OVER 33.5 (-115) is the play in this all-important third game for both sides. We should see Wilson play an extended period, and the Philadelphia starting offense will get extra opportunities to get on track and put up some points. Look for both offenses to find plenty of open spaces.
