Betting on the New York Jets
The New York Jets make the short trip to Pittsburgh to take on an AFC North division opponent for the third consecutive week. After opening their season with a 24-9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the Jets have taken on the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals, winning against the former 31-30 after an incredible comeback and losing to the latter 27-12 at Week 3.
That last game against the Bengals saw the Jets make a lot of mistakes.The team provided little protection for quarterback Joe Flacco, who was brought down four times for a loss of 33 yards, and this insecurity must have given rise to the two passes that were intercepted.In addition, the team failed to score a touchdown in the game.
Betting on the Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers share certain similarities with the New York Jets, and we’re not just talking about their record, as their only win of the season also came by the skin of their teeth, with the team winning in overtime 23-20 over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1. After that there hasn’t been anything outstanding, as they lost in consecutive weeks to the New England Patriots (17-14) and the Cleveland Browns (29-17).
While their defense has done a decent enough job to keep the team in the game,improving offensively will be necessary if they want to get more victories.The team was outgained in both minutes of possession and total yards, converting on just one of nine third-down opportunities in its last game against the Cleveland Browns.
JefeBet Prediction
On paper, both teams arrive in a similar situation, but the Jets have made a better impression throughout the season than the Steelers, being able to show a good game when all things are working correctly.
Despite a poor performance against the Bengals, the Jets start this week as the fifth-highest team as regards most total yards per game (390.0) and also fifth in yards-per-pass average (286.0). The Steelers, for their part, are the team averaging the fewest total yards so far. (279.7).
If the offensive line can provide Flacco with protection and the defense does a good enough job of stopping a Steelers’ offense that is not clicking, we could see the Jets come home with a win, or at best they could lose a close one.
Prediction: New York Jets Spread (NYJ 23 – PIT 19)
