Anyone else think Lions beat the Jets?

LT's about ready to start wearing down, and Sanchez can't read a defense worth shit. Detroit plays one-lick of defense in this one, I think they can take it.

line was at -3.5 (now -4). -3.5 is a key number, books want you to take +3.5 lions. the line moving to -4 already shows that sharps already pounded the early line on jets thinking public will side with the jets as well. once the public moves the line, sharps will either try for the middle or just keep their -3.5 bet if that is the side they initially wanted. sometimes sharps will bet the early fave knowing public will move the line, but in reality, they were on the dog the whole time. i do believe though, jets are the play, especially after a 9-0 loss to the packers and lions winning & covering against the redskins.

I hear what you are saying, and I definitely will wait to place this one as I think it can only go up, but Lions are the play here imo.

That's what I am talking about!!!

Lol, in all seriousness I am real curious to see how they play this week. Going against a tough defense, and the Lions are terrible on the ground. Stafford is going to have to beat them with his arm, not sure if he is ready for that yet.

Think the defense will keep them in the game, not exceptional but the D-line is really good and that helps protect the weak secondary.

Should be a good game, would lean Lions +4 here but will not be taking it myself cuz I don't trust Stafford yet.

No way the Lions beat the Jets, Jets D will shut them down and their offense will score at least 21. I love this game this week, I see a 24-10 game.

A week ago a lot of people figured the Jets were going to the Superbowl. Now they don't think they can handle the Lions. For some reason the Packers were really motivated. I dont think the Lions are of that calibre. 4 pts is scoring a TD vs a FG and I thinkg the Jets are more likely to be in that position than the Lions. IMHO.

Jets in a cakewalk. Lions have no running game and 1 weapon on offence. Revis will take that away.
