This is a big test for the Jets. And I think they will fail. The Jets are 5-0 but they are no match for the Patriots. Who have the Jets played? Let's see. Cincinnati (1-4), San Diego (3-3), Miami (0-6), Buffalo (1-4), and San Francisco (1-5). Combined, that's 6-21 or 22%. Why are people excited about the Jets given that level of competition? This New England team on the other hand is staking a claim as one of the best of all time. Laying just 6 points at home is what I call value. The Pats are scoring 27 points per game and they have faced three of the best defenses in the league. Against these three, Buffalo, Miami and Seattle, they have scored 31, 24 and 30, respectively. This is a major mismatch and we're lucky to be laying less than a TD. Bet 110 to win 100 on New England at -6.
