Best play this weekend
- Thread starter Redhog
- Start date
If you watch that yellow dude for about .....lets say 5 or 6 hours, you would swear he's saying "Eagles and the over"
Bains,
Do you mean you like the Jets on the moneyline as your 'best play' when you say 'outright, or do you mean you like the Jets +4' as your best play? Predictably, it's a little confusing.
If you are saying that your best bet is the Jets to win 'outright', that means that they must win the game. That's called a moneyline play and with an underdog, you will win more than you risk if it comes in.
If you mean that you like the Jets +4', that means that they must lose by less than five.
If you have any other questions about moneyline plays, please refer to the thread in the general area about this subject.
Hope this helps.

Mr. Kosar Sir,
Q.
Let's say I dont' like the Jets +4' ( but I do)and I don't like 'em on the moneyline neither (but I do). What does that mean ?

That means that you like neither play (but you do) and that you would(n't) recommend either one. I think.

If the temp. in Philly drops below 40 degrees which probably will happen, you guys know what to do
The 40 degree thing is not that big of a factor to me being that the first 13 occurred when they were losing no matter what the temp was!!
Mr. kosar my post is saying that the JETS +4 is a great pick, due to the fact they are going to win the game. I don't have an offshore account, thus I can't play the money line.
Jets will win this game vs Oakland, and the +4 is a gift. Oakland has many problems and will not be able to turn the ON switch for the playoffs. Raiders have had severe problems since the Seattle loss, and are heading in a downward spiral. Raider's offense is limited, and with a subpar running game, and lack of vertical passing game,( only horizontal), opposing defenses have figured out Raider's offensive philosophy. I do not believe that they can make enough changes in 1 week to beat the JETS.
Jets won the game last week, while not playing particularily well, they even turned the ball over a few times. The jets have been a consistently GOOD ROAD team this year, and will beat the Raiders again this week.

oakland wins the game easily. i'm not even going to bother looking at the game. asking the jets to win back to back west coast games is too much. easiest bet on the board = raiders.
by the way, bains. the public is all over miami. not even close.

Jets are the easiest play on the board this weekend.
Jets are 7-1 on the road this year. They won last week's game vs Raiders while Curtis Martin didn't have a good game, and Vinny threw 2 interceptions.
Raiders have scored 20+points only once in the last 4 games. Charlie Garner has a foot infection and is a game time decision. The much maligned Tyrone Wheatley might get the start.
For the Raiders to win they have to open up the passing game. Rice and Brown were held to 9 catches for 115 yards by Jets secondary. Jet's DB's Glenn and Coleman provide a tough matchup for Raiders receivers. Raiders are too slow at receiver, they are at the bottom of the league in pass completions over 25 yards. This has allowed defenses to take away their SLANT routes that Gannon loves, and force him to hold the ball and get sacked.
Jets have a huge edge in close games, Vinny has brought the team back 4 times to rally for late wins. He did it vs the Bengals, Colts, Raiders last week. Gannon has not performed well in close games, Jets have a huge edge here.
I do not think anybody can present the SOFT reasoning that JETS can't travel twice to the WEST coast and win both games. I doubt it the Jets players are thinking that, it comes down to settling it on the field. Travel is irrelevant. Jets will win another game vs a Raiders team that recently lost to Arizona and was dominated by tennesse and barely beat San Diego.

To me the toughest game to cap is the NY/Oak game..How can you ride Oak after there downfall at the end of the season? But again how can you play against them with what Jack pointed out? Damn what to do? Probally lay off...lol
I agree that the NY/OAK game is a tough one.
conflicts
-OAK held Martin to 50 yds last week.
-Can they do that twice in a row?
-NYJ's are 7-1 on the road. (lost @ PITT)
-But now they have to travel coast to coast, twice, in 7 days.
-I'm not big on rookie coaches in the playoffs
-I love Gruden
-4 of the last 5 in this series has been decided by 5 or less
-latest line is 4 1/2
-Testaverde has been playing bad.
-Gannon has been playing like Testaverde.
