Bills at Jets: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks
Prediction
Bills 30, Jets 13
Money line (?)
The Jets are just horrible. They can’t score points and can’t stop anyone. This divisional rivalry can be interesting but Bills QB Allen will not have any trouble against this team. However, at -625, it isn’t worth the bet. AVOID.
Against the spread (?)
The Jets have yet to cover the spread in any game this season. Buffalo is 3-3 ATS. There is nothing about the Jets to trust against a team who is the favorite to win the division. Take the BILLS -12 (-110).
Over/Under (?)
Buffalo’s games have gone Over in four of six games. The Jets are 3-3 O/U. I don’t expect the Jets to score enough to carry their end of the deal. Take the UNDER (45.5).
