The New York Jets will continue the fight for their playoff lives today when they take on the Seattle Seahawks. The game is set to kick off at 4:05pm ET at Qwest Field in Seattle, Washington. NFL Picks at Sportsbook.com have the Seahawks pegged as a +3.5 home underdog.
Jets Breakdown: New York is currently in first place in the AFC East, however, they have no room for slippage. Miami and New England are tied with the Jets at 9-5, and should the Jets and Dolphins both win today, they will play next week for the AFC East crown. Last Sunday New York ended a two game skid by beating the Bills 31-27 at home with a last minute defensive touchdown.
The Jets are 4-3 on the road, averaging 24.2 points per game away from Giants Stadium.
Seahawks Breakdown: Seattle is having a rough year, wallowing in third place in the NFC West at 3-11. Despite being competitive in most of their games, the Seahawks have been unable to get over the hump due to a rash of injuries. Last weekend, however, Seattle managed to get a rare win by beating the hapless Rams 23-20 in St. Louis. The victory snapped a six game losing streak for Mike Holmgren's beleagured club.
Seattle is 1-6 as a host this year, losing at Qwest Field by an average of 6.3 points per game.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Seahawks are 3-7 straight up in their last 10 games as a home underdog in the month of December with a spread between 4 and 7.5.
