Dolphins vs. Jets Free Pick
EAST RUTHERFORD, NY (TheSpread) – Less than seven days after they were destroyed by one AFC East rival, the New York Jets will host another when the Miami Dolphins come into town on Sunday. Continue reading for picks, odds and more on this Week 14 NFL matchup.
According to NFL Week 14 odds and oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com, the Jets are 5-point favorites over the Dolphins on Sunday. The over/under total for this game is currently 39.5 points.
The Dolphins fell to 6-6 on the year with their loss to the Browns last Sunday and are now 7-5 against the spread according to latest NFL trends. But they’re 5-1 on the road this year and have covered in five of those six games.
The Jets fell to 9-3 after they were absolutely crushed by the Patriots on Monday night. They’ve covered in seven of their 12 games this year but have split at home, going 3-3 ATS.
NFL Week 14 Free Pick:
Normally, we support a team when it gets blown out in a nationally televised game the week before because they usually play better the following Sunday. But as it pertains to the Jets, we can’t feasibly pick a team that gave up 45 points on Monday night and then is favored the following week. The Dolphins are 5-1 on the road this year and while they failed to play the Jets tough in Miami earlier in the season, we think oddsmakers have completely overvalued New York this time around. Everyone saw the affect Jim Leonhard’s injury had on the Jets’ defense in New England and while Chad Henne is coming off a brutal performance against the Browns, we think he might be able to move the ball successfully against New York’s banged up defense. The road team is 6-1-1 against the spread in the last eight meetings between these two teams and the underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last four games. Our pick is the Dolphins +5. Five points is just way too many to be giving a decent Miami team fighting for its playoff lives.
