(NFL) Detroit vs. NY Jets,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -110.00 NY Jets (Home)
Result: Loss
#314 ASA PLAY ON 8* NY Jets +1.5 over Detroit Lions, Sunday at 1 PM ET - Detroit has won 5 of 6 (6-0 ATS) but they’ve had a very favorable schedule as of late. They haven’t played a road game since Nov 20th and their 2 road game wins were vs Giants (trending down big time) and Bears despite winning Detroit was outgained in both. Their last 5 wins have come vs defenses ranked 18th or lower (total defense) and the one top 10 defense they faced during that stretch, Buffalo, came away with a win @ Detroit. On Sunday they face a desperate Jets team that is coming home off 2 straight road losses @ Minnesota and @ Buffalo. Despite the losses, NY outgained the Vikings by 198 yards and outgained the Bills by 77 yards. For the season, NY is 8th in YPP differential while the Lions are 25th and the Jets have played tougher schedule. NYJ has a HUGE defensive advantage in this game as they rank 3rd in total defense and 2nd in YPP allowed while Minnesota ranks 31st and 32nd in those two categories. NY will be starting Zach Wilson at QB here and he has a lot to play for after getting unseated a few weeks ago by Mike White. Weather will be cold which we feel favors NY when facing off against Detroit who is a dome team. Our power ratings have the home team a slight favorite here so we’ll take the value with the Jets.
