I just don't get the over line on this bet. 44 points is huge. Charges -9 and the over implies the Chargers win by something like 31-15. I believe our D will hold them under four scores. I guess this is a bet against our (top ten ranked) defense. Jets +9 and the over implies the Jets win by something like 24-21. This would require our (25th ranked) offense to score four times, and our defense to allow three TDs with the NY offense on the field quite a bit. I'd love it but I really see this game being lower scoring,.
Blame vegas. http://sports.bodoglife.com/sports-betting/nfl-football.jsp BTW, now it is Jets +8.5 and the O/U is 45
I'm not picking on you, just trying to understand why people are picking the OVER. I guess from the movement of the lines that the betting is heavily on the Jets to go OVER?
