books need the jets. u are with the books or the bears that is for sure by game-time. that does not mean anything other than that, anyone can win. i just know which side i'd rather my money be on.

Exactly.

[No coincidences]

sure but there is no way of telling which is a conglomeration of accumulated "public" money
and which is whale bets unless you can screen dollar amounts and see where the big $ is on.
which none of us can do.

Like I said, the Jets have gone from -120 to -150 back down to -120 on the ML. The move from PK to -2.5 isn't really relevant.

Books don't "need" anything with this game. Books aren't going to get buried on a week 3 MNF game, and I doubt action is even heavy on one side compared to the other.

I think the Jets have the better overall team and Geno Smith doesn't get enough credit, but Jay Cutler and the Bears WR's should have a field day against NYJ's bad secondary. On the other hand, Jets should be able to run all over Chicago.

It seems like the books are begging you to bet the Bears.

agree its not relevant which is why the reason of my post was to refute the notion that
"the public is all over the Bears"
the numbers posted by books are not necessarily representative
of the public money either especially with NFL where most bets are made via locals.
the consensus numbers on sites such as covers are only the consensus of cappers who
spend time on these forums, not "the public". The only thing I know for sure is if there
was enough public money on the Bears to mean anything the line would be pk and it isn't.

Well, with a current +100/-120 line at a lot of books, it basically is.

I doubt the majority of the $$$ is on the Bears either FWIW -- after all, they're playing a New York team in NY. I do think the public perception is the Bears are the better team, though, and I don't necessarily think that's the case.

Amen. Only thing I disagree with is Chicago having a field day on the Jets secondary.

Becareful constantly bashing black quarterbacks and black people in general, it wont end well for you

true this line doesnt mean anything - and i couldn't care less who "the public" is on
because we all know sharps lose as much as squares.
i'm not willing to pick a winner except that the Bears will put up some points tonight

[Jdizzle315]

So I did a teaser took bears +8 and under at 50 looks ok to me. I just can't back the jets.

[stevenash]

Bears o-line is banged up, word is defensive guru Rex Ryan will be blitizing the house all night, so if the Bears don't pick up the blitz, that pretty much neutralizes the Bears speedy wide-outs, if the Bears do pick up the blitz, and Cutler gets time, game over.
Remember, Matt Forte will be a factor, he's one of the best a) pass catching half backs, and b) one of the best pass blocking half backs.

Forte will be the key to the game, I expect him to get nine or so targets out of the backfield if the heat gets turned up, I expect Cutler to 'dump' it off Forte often, know this, Forte is very smart, and doesn't drop many balls.

I don't think Geno can beat the beat the Bears up top, but I think if the Jets win, it will be with Ivory and Johnson and the running backs.
Bears are vulnerable to the run, like I said, their line is bruised.

Ask me the game line is correct, the total is a little high, and even though betting unders is risky business, the under is the way to go here.

I'm thinking completely the other way on this one.

It's definitely the Jets or pass

[joeygats]

theres is a bunch

anyone got a good lean?

im liking chi wins first half and loses game for +860

[ByeShea]

Could be a trap game for the Bears here, having a game vs division rival Packers next week.

Trap game???

There are about 3-4 teams, at most, that you can be relatively sure the Bears could visit on a Monday and win.

Jets not on that list.

[recon1]

I'll take the Bears here

Not sold on Gino

I thought we were fading public on primetime?

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Seems like everyone on here is on the jets...and its a "trap",...hummmm..I'm on da bears

[t-wizzle]

It's not a trap. Not sure who said that.

[TwoWays]

Bears are 1-0 ats playing away. Jets are 0-1 ats at home. The sun will set in the west. Jets are 1-0 when geno smith throws for exactly 221 yds. Hope this helps.

I actually liked the jets going into today till I read this page everyone seems to like the bears
my hole thought is jay cutler is still jay cutler o line is not good the jets front 7 are pretty good they should get to him,also the bears run d isn't what it used to be by any means the jets committee of backs should be able to move the ball and put Gino into more favorable situations....all that being said I think I just talked myself back into taking the jets gl tonight

[crustyme]

lang and twizzler on jets.

this is too easy.

their is some sharp money on the Bears. The Bears should be a small favorite of around 3. But ,they are very banged up. Jets Secondary sucks and can't match up with Bears receivers so they need to pressure Cutler and they can expose the Bears D, even though Geno is a Turn over machine with no playmakers. Tough game but think Jets may be a small play for action only.

[ByeShea]

Jets are a decent team in decent shape and at home on Monday night. They're giving less than a FG to a team that isn't any better than them on paper. I'll take the team in the Jets spot every time.

And enough with the "smart money" (not here) and book collusion (not ever).

[KRIT]

Looks like Decker will play.

[stevenash]

My Polish home boy from UCONN

Dan the man!

[cankid]

Like the jets also, taking 1st half, if I lose I will double up, I dont think they lose both halves ....... think better play is Under Forte Rushing 65 yards, Jets front 7 strong

[thechaoz]

Whos seaweed on? Lol

[KingJD31]

can't decide who will ko cutler maybe coples

[Conan]
