The Dolphins have gotten back in the playoff picture with 2 straight wins while the Jets have lost 2 of their last 3 games.
On the season the Dolphins are 3-3 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 3-3 and the Jets are 5-2 ATS with an Over/Under record of 4-3.
Ryan Tannehill does not have the best WR corps, but unlike early in the season he is not making mistakes and he has not been picked off in his last 2 games. He has connected on 66.7% of his passes for 839 yards in his last 3 games, but he will be facing a legit New York pass defense that ranks 9th in the league.
Bush is the leading rusher for the Dolphins, but even though the Dolphins have won their last 2 games he has failed to average over 2.5 yards per carry in either of those games. However, there is a chance he will get back on track in this game since the Jets’ run defense has really struggled this season and ranks 30th in the league. [soliloquy id=”82219″]
Mark Sanchez passed for 323 yards past week with 1 TD and 1 INT and the only other time he passed for over 300 yard this season was the earlier game facing the Dolphins. However, he was picked off twice in that game. His WR corps is banged up, but Jeremy Kerley has been playing well. While Miami only ranks 28th in pass D they have a good pass rush and pressuring Sanchez in the pocket will be key for them in this game.
The Dolphins run defense has been great this season, ranking 3rd in the league, and Jets’ RB Shonn Greene left the Patriots game with a head injury, but he should go in this game. Still, he has averaged over 4 yards per carry this season in only 1 game and that was facing a weak run defense of the Colts.
In some betting trends for this AFC East match up the Dolphins are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss, and they have an Under record of 14-6-1 in their last 21 games.
The Jets are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a S.U. loss, and they have an Over record of 5-1 in their last 6 vs. AFC East.
Jason’s Pick: The Jets played pretty good in their OT loss to the Patriots last week and at home they will play well again, especially on defense and they will win and cover.
NFL Handicapping – Colts vs Titans Betting Spread / Matchup
After losing 4 of their first 5 games the Titans (3-4) have won 2 straight and in their last game Chris Johnson blew up for 195 rushing yards and looked like the RB that was the best in the league a couple years back.
NFL Handicapping – Falcons vs Eagles Betting Spread / Matchup
The Falcons are the only team in the NFL that has yet to lose and one of the main reasons is their play by QB Matt Ryan, who has many solid targets and has the 4th highest QB rating in the league.
Washington vs Pittsburgh Odds & Prediction
The Pittsburgh Steelers came up with a much-needed win last weekend in Cincinnati. Washington’s last-minute loss at New York was a particularly tough one to take.
NFL Handicapping – Rams vs. Dolphins Betting Spread / Matchup
The Rams (3-2) are coming off a great win handing the Cardinals their first loss sacking Arizona QB Kevin Kolb 3 times. The Dolphins are only 2-3, but they are coming off a solid home win over the Bengals.
NFL Handicapping – Bengals vs. Browns Betting Spread / Matchup
The Bengals (3-2) offense really struggled last week in a surprising loss to the Dolphins, but there is a good chance they will get back on track facing the winless Browns (0-6).
NFL Handicapping – Raiders vs. Falcons Betting Spread / Matchup
The Falcons (5-0) are one of only 2 remaining undefeated teams and while the Raiders (1-3) are coming off a bye they were crushed in their previous game.
Pittsburgh vs Tennessee Odds & Prediction
The Tennessee Titans come into this game at 1-4, but even that doesn’t tell how badly the team has played this year. All of the Titans four losses have come by at least 21 points.
NFL Handicapping – Ravens vs. Chiefs Betting Spread / Matchup
The Ravens (3-1) have won 2 straight and are tied with the Bengals atop the AFC North. Unlike the last few years the Ravens are led by their offense, as their defense has not been the dominant unit we are used to seeing.
NFL Handicapping – Titans vs Vikings Betting Spread / Matchup
The Vikings (3-1) are off to a surprising start and they have won 2 straight and are tied with the Bears atop the NFC North. The Titans (1-3) have really struggled on defense this season, as they only rank 27th in the league both defending the pass and defending the run.
NFL Handicapping – Dolphins vs Bengals Betting Spread / Matchup
The Bengals (3-1) have won 3 straight after an opening season loss and their offense has been solid in their 3-game winning streak. They face a 1-3 Dolphins’ team, but in their last 2 games they lost both in OT, so the Fish are close to being 3-1.
NFL Handicapping – Packers vs Colts Betting Spread / Matchup
The Packers (2-2) came up with a much needed win at home in this last game and to keep pace with the Bears (3-1) they need to beat the Colts (1-2).
Arizona vs St. Louis Odds & Prediction
The Arizona Cardinals are the biggest surprise in the NFL so far this year. Arizona enters this game at 4-0 after pulling off a big comeback victory over Miami last weekend.
Division foe St. Louis will host them this Thursday night on NFL Network.
NFL Handicapping – Titans vs Texans Betting Spread / Matchup
The Titans (1-2) got their first win of the season last week and Jake Locker had the best game of his career with 378 passing yards with 2 TD. However, he is not getting much help from RB Chris Johnson and they will be facing a Houston defense that ranks in the top 5 on the league in both pass and run defense.
NFL Handicapping – 49ers vs Jets Betting Spread / Matchup
There is a good chance they could get back on track in this game facing the Jets (2-1), who are at home, but lost their defensive leader in CB Darrelle Revis in their last game. NFL lines have the 49ers as 4-point road favorites with a total of 41.5.
