    Haven't placed any on this game yet.

    But last week was one of those where every damn bet went sour on me.

    Even Brady let me down... :p

    I think there's a reason for the big spread. I think this is just one of those weeks where we just have an all around bad week. Obviously, I hope I'm wrong.

    Buffalo Physco is busy. Busy buying an even uglier sweater.

    I like how betting on FB used to be illegal, and now that it isn't, the NFL pushes gambling apps in some backroom like they're not dangling carrots in front of a bunch of gambling addicts. Isn't the only reason point spreads exist at all is because bookies would send someone with a baseball bat to break your legs if you didn't pay up? I get small time betting for fun, why not, but all I care about is if the Jets win. If anyone on here loses $50 bucks over a Jets win I'm not sure how upset I'll be.

    I took the Jets and the points. This will be a tough game and most likely a one score game. I doubt it's a blowout either way.

    The move to legalized gambling is a disaster in my opinion. They're pushing gambling on college kids everywhere it is legal and they're going to ruin lives.

    I get the desire to increase tax revenues but they might as well legalize opiates as recreational drugs for all the harm gambling will do.

    Young males are very prone to risk taking, so of course targeting that demographic is a huge money maker. I remember some years ago online poker was huge with young male college students for much the same reason and kids were getting in huge money trouble before they were even 21. : /

    Go Jets, that's all I know.

    It's a free country. You can make the choice to not do so if it's a problem for you. Nobody's making you.

    I still think I would be an addict in China.

    Gambling is illegal there. Maybe you should move to Beijing. Might help ya out.

    Never got into sports gambling, but I think it would be intriguing for baseball. All sorts of prop bets

    I really hope not, but I just feel like we're due for a lopsided clunker.

    Sure. The Jets haven't blown anyone out since the Dolphins back in October.

    That's kinda how I'm seeing this one too. The Bills are a legit unit on all sides, although I think losing Von Miller hurts their SB chances. Allen and their O are uber aggressive so I see them coming out in major attack mode and payback will be on their minds for sure. I see something like 38-23. Hope I'm wrong and we grill up some Buffalo meat.

    I think it’s fair to say the odds are stacked high against the Jets.Not only are the Bill coming back full force talent wise but with a sour taste on their mouth from the clunker in NY, but with the added incentive to retain the number one seed thru out. I hate to say it and hope I’m dead wrong. But this one has all the makings of a blow out where the team comes crashing back down to earth. if the Jets play like they did in Minni or at the Pats not even a miracle can save us. I hope the weather forces a lot of turnovers in our favor and we control he clock.

    No I don't see the sky falling here

    Can't say why ..but the Offense and receivers are solidly behind White..and perhaps he wants to prove he can beat the Bills like ZW

    Division games are tough on both sides
