Also, I don't get a strong sense out of Jets camp that they will be better prepared. They had a really 'not so confident' week with the NY media - at least in my eyes. Scary to bet on those kind of teams.
This one is should be a total no play for me because my gut conflicts with the math. The weather looks to be potentially shaky in NY today, so who knows. All I know is, Arizona can run the ball and they were 1 mistake away from winning against the Skins last week... The Jets? They have a lot of work to do to show me they can be competitive against decent teams. That defense is not working well right now, and their corners are just way too small to defend Fitzgerald/Bolden - and their 3-4 scheme has not proven it can stop the run - worse yet if Jenkins isn't playing his best. The Jets could do 0 defensively when Jenkins got hurt against SD.
I took Arizona, but I was only intending to do system bets this week and actually took my gut lean over the handicapping - I feel stupid now, so naturally, everything I just said is null/void and stupid and the Jets are a lock to win - that's how it usually goes when I fade myself haha.
