Prime-Time First TD Bets — Sunday Night Football, Week 16
Alex Christenson
The New York Jets come into Week 3 winless (shocking, I know) after a game against the Patriots where rookie quarterback Zach Wilson looked more like he was playing for the Patriots than the Jets. Because of the pitiful performance, the Broncos come in as one of the heaviest favorites on the slate in this game, with a spread of 10.5 points. Will the Jets finally turn it around in Week 3?

Jets futures odds
A look at various futures markets for the New York Jets
Zach Wilson Offensive Rookie of the Year odds
Zach Wilson’s NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds are currently +1800, drastically down from the +800 number that we saw ahead of Week 2 against the Patriots. This is clearly tied to his 4-interception performance where he simply looked lost and overwhelmed on the field. If things trend the way they have been, he may not even make it 17 games.
Jets to win the AFC odds
The Jets are currently +20000 to win the AFC on BetMGM and currently aren’t even listed on any other book. They were arguably the longest shot in the AFC before the season started, but that belief has been confirmed after an 0-2 start with an anemic offense and a rookie quarterback who, again, simply does not look NFL ready, while their defense has been bleeding production.
New York Jets betting trends
After posting the second-worst record ATS in 2020 (6-10-0), the Jets got 2021 off to a similar start, going 0-2 against the spread. They really haven’t even come close, either, missing the spread by an average margin of 7.5 points through two games. That’s over a full touchdown. Taking on the Broncos who are one of the few undefeated teams in the NFL and have looked great on both sides of the ball, the spread is predictably a large one, sitting at 10.5. Even with a large spread, my confidence in the Jets is minimal. That said, not everyone at FTN feels as uneasy about the Jets as I do.
