New York Jets at Minnesota Vikings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s New York Jets at Minnesota Vikings odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The New York Jets (7-4) take a 4-1 road record with them as they travel to play the Minnesota Vikings (9-2) at 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Jets vs. Vikings odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Something will have to give in this interconference battle since both teams are undefeated against the other division. The Jets have posted convincing wins against Green Bay and Chicago while the Vikings are looking to improve to 4-0 against the AFC East.

The Jets defense has been imposing over the last 2 months. In their last 8 games, nobody has scored more than 22 points against them, 4 of the last 6 teams have scored 10 or less and teams are averaging just 14 points.

The Vikings haven’t been winning pretty, but they’ve stacked up 9 wins — the last 8 of them being 1-score games. In 3 of those wins, Minnesota has overcome a double-digit deficit in the 4th quarter, making the plays needed to win down the stretch.

Jets at Vikings picks and predictions

Prediction

Vikings 20, Jets 16

Moneyline

PASS.

Unless you think the game is going to be decided by 1 or 2 points, there is no reason to invest 63 percent more than your return. While it might end up happening (anything is possible with Minnesota’s penchant for tight games), the better investment is against the spread.

Against the spread

TAKE THE VIKINGS -3 (-107).

Minnesota finds ways to win games in the final minutes. It has been the Vikings M.O. all season. The Jets offense isn’t dynamic — I don’t put much stock in hammering a Bears team last week that sold off its best defensive players at the trade deadline.

If the spread moves to 3.5 points before game time, I might reconsider this bet, but the noise in US Bank Stadium is going to make things miserable for QB Mike White to try to make changes at the line and audible. The Vikings take advantage of home cooking often and it tends to lead to the critical turnover that can change the outcome of a game.

Over/Under

TAKE THE UNDER 44.5 (-110).

The Jets deserve a lot of respect with what they have accomplished defensively. If they make the playoffs, it will be because of their defense.

Typically you say getting to 20 points should be a minimum standard, but only 1 of New York’s last 6 opponents has accomplished that and it was the Patriots scoring 22 points in Week 8 by kicking 5 field goals.

Points are going to hard to come by and until a team proves it can throw 24 or more points against this Jets defense, you take the Under every time.
