NFL Online Betting Jets @ Seahawks

The New York Jets (9-5 SU, 7-7 ATS, 8-5-1 O/U) snapped their modest two-game losing streak with a big division win in Week 15. The Seattle Seahawks (3-11 SU, 6-7-1 ATS, 6-6-2 O/U) finally found a team they could beat as they snapped their six-game losing streak in the BetUS Sportsbook.  

Now, both teams will be trying to pick up a victory when they battle at Qwest Field on Sunday.

The Jets are coming off a 31-27 win over the Buffalo Bills, but failed to cover the spread for NFL sports betting backers as an 8-point favorite last week.

Pro Bowl running back Thomas Jones rushed for 78 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries for the Jets, while veteran quarterback Brett Favre completed 17 of 30 passes for 207 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the win.

New York went ahead for good with just under two minutes remaining in the contest when Abram Elam sacked Bills quarterback J.P. Losman, causing a fumble that Shaun Ellis picked up and rumbled 11 yards into the end zone with 1:54 left to give the Jets a 31-27 lead that held up for the victory.

“That play that Shaun makes and Abe makes, who knows?” quarterback Brett Favre said. “At the end, we may look back and say that could be one of those plays that catapulted us into something great.”

“I just kept running, got some good blocking and was able to get into the end zone,” Ellis said.

The Seahawks defeated the St. Louis Rams 23-20 on Sunday as a 1.5-point road favorite last week as veteran running back T.J. Duckett scored the Seahawks lone offensive touchdown and quarterback Seneca Wallace completed 15 of 25 passes for 226 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in the win.

“I don’t know what to say, it’s been so long,” Holmgren said. “I challenged them a little at halftime and I think they responded beautifully. They’re very happy. They should be.”
