00:00
Thursday night football on this Halloween at MetLife will it be trick or treat for Aaron
00:10
Rodgers and the New York Jets.
00:12
The Jets now a two and a half point home favorite against the Houston Texans total at 42 and
00:18
a half.
00:19
Donnie, I actually think this is a rather simple handicap, right?
00:22
Do you believe the Jets can finally win a game when we expect them to or are the odds
00:27
makers continuously incorrect and the Texans are just a better team because New York has
00:33
actively found ways to lose writing a five game win streak.
00:37
If you believe in the Jets, you lay the two and a half.
00:40
They win by a field goal, potentially even more than that.
00:43
If you are done buying in betting and believing on Aaron Rodgers and gang green, you take
00:49
CJ Stroud and the Texans outright on the money line because he has been a great underdog
00:55
when he has entered the National Football League since the start of last year.
00:59
It's just how do you believe so?
01:01
Will it be spooky tonight in New York or will the Jets finally deliver on what they have
01:05
been promising fans in the last 18 months?
01:08
I think the Jets will deliver tonight and also a case in point of being home on Thursday
01:12
night as a major advantage and you're not getting the best version of the Texas team
01:15
that goes into it.
01:16
You bring me Nico Collins, Stefan Diggs and Tank Dell.
01:19
We're not looking to the Jets that look like the favorite side would actually be the Texans
01:23
and rightfully so.
01:24
Now granted, can they still win the game?
01:25
The Texans?
01:26
Yes.
01:27
They have a very good defensive line.
01:28
They got a couple of really good cornerbacks here that can sort of slow things down.
01:31
But the interesting part for the Jets is sometimes you look at a team, it just didn't go their
01:35
way, Ben.
01:36
They're just so injured.
01:37
Aaron Rodgers is healthy.
01:38
Your offensive line is healthy.
01:39
Your tight end is healthy.
01:40
Your top wide outs are healthy.
01:41
Your top running backs are healthy.
01:42
You get the point here?
01:43
Like nothing has made sense why the Jets continue to slip other than they're just not a good
01:47
football team and come up in clutch moments.
01:50
Now again, I can go down game by game.
01:51
Zerline make a couple of kicks.
01:53
This team looks like they're on their way to the Super Bowl.
01:55
He didn't.
01:56
The record is what it says it is.
01:57
It's just a circumstantial bet where theoretically for the Jets, your season isn't officially
02:02
over.
02:03
They're heading into this game saying now's the time to jumpstart the season.
02:06
Should they have done it last week against the New England Patriots?
02:08
Absolutely.
02:09
And they lost that football game.
02:10
No excuses against Jacoby Brissette when CJ Stroud is so much better than Jacoby Brissette.
02:15
And even without weapons at wide receiver, they're probably still better at wide receiver
02:18
than New England Patriots were last week.
02:20
So nothing has made sense for the Jets.
02:22
For me tonight, it's a circumstantial play.
02:24
I like the spot they're in.
02:25
They should be able to win this game.
02:27
They are favored for a reason and they get the job done.
