Is new england defense up to the challenge against the jets???

[MR.HARRYtheHAT]

Jets vs. New England Patriots point spread is currently posted at -3 points chalk the Patriots with the total expected by the odds makers at 42 points. For the stats-lovers, the betting trends show that the NY Jets are 4-2 against the spread in their last 6 games and 5-2 against the spread in their last 7 games on the road. And although New England is 7-2 against the spread in their last 9 games when playing NY Jets, the Patriots are 3-9 against the spread in their last 12 games when playing at home against the Jets. Also notable is the fact that the total has gone UNDER in 4 of the NY Jets last 5 games when playing on the road against New England. As far as injuries are concerned, the Patriots have plenty as usual, but the most noticeable will be the absence of Pro Bowl linebacker Adalius Thomas, who injuries his arm during the game against the Bill. Although not confirmed officially by New England, reports in the media claim that Adalius Thomas has indeed broken his arm, obviously a season-ending injury. Patriots running back Laurence Maroney and safety Rodney Harrison are also out, but Green-Ellis is doing a good job in replacing Maroney so far. Monday night’s game is going to Be- Exciting, but I wonder if the Patriots defense is up to the challenge? I have no worries about the offense scoring points,but as they say in New England or should say,defense wins championships. Hopefully,the team figures that out sooner than later .

Harry, you gunna pick a side one this game?

I really like the Jets here, dont think NE's D is up for the challenge. Think the Jets come to play on both sides of the ball. Im looking for them to win SU.

And just to clarify, Laurence Maroney plays for Denver now a days.

Both teams are just about guaranteed playoff spots, and there is no history of intense hatred or bad blood between them, so I'm not expecting any kind of war or maximal effort by either side. Pats offense would take care of business if this game really meant a lot and I suppose going for a bye the first week of playoffs may be enough to keep Pats interest, so close game for sure, take either side and you'll be sweating it out to the very end, pass on this one.

Awesome write up, I am going to go definitely bet on the Patriots now. All I needed was for you to have the Jets as a Lock to win, then I would be all in on the Patriots.

What the f-ck you mean there is no hatred or bad blood? These 2 teams can't stand each other from the owners down to the waterboys. Do you really pay attention to NFL?

[uhuhahah]

Pats 49 0 Jets 21

[CntryBoy]

Pats will score enough on O to win, even if D isn't particularly strong IMO. The Jets O hasn't done much lately to suggest they can score with the Pats even if they have to. I think Pats win, but should be a close one... I'll play Pats ML in case of a FG win.

[ttrace35]

Pats probably win. Usually 2 good teams in the same division split the 2 meetings. Really hard to sweep.
