Respect is given to New York's top-ranked defense and running game. However, after hitting the playoff road and knocking off the Bengals at Cincinnati, traveling to San Diego to tackle the red hot Chargers will be an extremely tough encore for the Jets.
San Diego comes into this post season battle on a roll off 11 consecutive wins. Quietly, the Bolts have put together one of the best records in the NFL lately too notching a tremendous 69-31 SU and 60-36-4 ATS record in their last 100 battles including a juicy 57-27-4 ATS in this role priced as an underdog or a favorite of -11 or less! With those two parameters applied and head coach Norv Turner's men playing at home, this team trend zips to a profitable 28-10-2 ATS!
There is a solid playoff system that goes against the Jets on Sunday afternoon as well. According to my NFL database, NFL playoff road underdogs priced at +8' or less are a dismal 12-23 SU and ATS provided they won straight up as a post season underdog in their last game. If our "play against" pooch carries a won/loss percentage of .650 or less, this situation crashes to a dismal 1-12 SU and ATS! Two teams apply to this system this weekend: New York on Sunday and Baltimore on Saturday!
When the Jets defeated the Bengals last weekend, New York quarterback Mark Sanchez became just the fourth rookie quarterback to win a playoff game since 1970! That was an impressive performance by Sanchez. However, Chargers Pro Bowl QB Philip Rivers has been to this stage of the game many times before and his post season experience will help key this victory. Take San Diego.
