Fins +3 seems so easy... think its vegas trap?
:howdy:Hello guju...
The Jets are -3 in this contest which is a divisional game, thusly its a simple matter to look backwards in time to see what the spread has been historically when Miami came to town, last year the Jets were -3 and the year before the Jets were installed as -2.5 favorites...
...thusly the spread on this game is in line with what it has been in the past when Miami came to town.
What is intriquing to me is that Miami was installed as a 3 point home dog to the Jets in week one back on September 7th, based on the spread in the first meeting this year you would expect to see Miami as a 9 point doggie due to field reversal....
...yet the Fish are only 3 point doggies in this go around, I think part of the reason for the Fish being a dog at home in week one stems from Miami having had a 1-15 season last year and part of it is due to public perception of the Jets being led by Brett Favre.
However, there is no getting around the fact that the odds maker really respects this Miami team and what they have accomplished this season versus how the Jets have fared to date, we know this because there has been a full 6 point line adjustment (between these teams) since they first met in week one...the odds maker is trying to show you who he thinks will win.
Take care and be well my friend
