They average identical scores against one another (45.3 Washington, 45.4 New Jersey). The second half spread will end up being New Jersey -5.5, which means that the linemakers don't believe that they will cover. I am gonna wait it out and see if I can catch them at +4 or see if the books' offering of their 1st half side goes to even money. If either of those two things occurs, i am going to take them in the 1st half for a small wager. Stylistic's birthday is Saturday, so I have to make some necklace money.
