Jets Struggling as Home Favorites
Week 12 of the NFL schedule pits a pair of AFC East foes in the Miami Dolphins and New York Jets against each other at MetLife Stadium. The Phins have been having a ton of trouble against division rivals, dropping their last six games against the AFC East.
The New York Jets have opened as 4-point favorites at most sportsbooks, which won’t appeal to their bettors. The Jets are just 2-7 ATS in their last nine games when tabbed as home chalk. To make matters worse for the J-E-T-S, the Dolphins are 5-2 ATS in their previous seven trips to New York.
OVER bettors are loving the Jets as of late due to their penchant for participating in lots of high-scoring affairs. The total has gone OVER in five of the Jets’ last six games.
