New England hasn’t given up a touchdown yet this season and Luke Falk isn’t going to break that streak.
Lot of people are going to default to taking New York Jets in this one saying that 23 is just too many points to spot ATS. Doggy don’t think so. Here’s the why.
New England has gone for 30 and 43 points this season. They haven’t let opponents into the endzone either. That means that both those margins of victory would’ve covered this spread.
They’ve demonstrated that they are going to go out every game with one goal in mind; Lay It On Thick Whilst Preserving The Shutout. Mark the Jets down as the 3rd victim of The Bill Belichick Body Bag Tour of 2019.
That’s why The Dog likes the Pats ATS in this one.
People have been questioning why the Pats didn’t back off against Miami. See what Kevin Van Noy has to say about it!
The Dog doesn’t expect the Pats to buck trend and change their philosophy against an AFC East divisional opponent. Pats will take it to the Jets for 60 minutes of football and won’t be letting up until after the final whistle blows.
Belichick will be using this as another tune up game for getting Antonio Brown acclimated to the offense for when the games really matter, so I expect them to continue to try and rack up points & Lay It On Thick.
Dog goin’ over.
