Over/Under 44.5

Here is a look at the key head-to-head trends surrounding this Thanksgiving Day matchup.

  • Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.
  • Favorite is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
  • Home team is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
  • Bengals are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 meetings.

Cincinnati 411

The Bengals, (2-8 SU, 3-7 ATS, 6-4 O/U) have lost a whopping seven straight games, including its dismal showing in their 49-31 loss to Buffalo in Week 11.

The Bengals failed to cash in as 4-point home favorite against the NFL Picks odds to fall to 1-6 ATS over its last seven games.

New York Jets 411

The Jets (8-2 SU, 6-4 ATS, 8-2 O/U) picked up their third straight thrilling win by beating the Houston Texans 30-27 thanks to a game-winning drive engineered by Mark Sanchez with less than a minute remaining that covered over 70 yards.

New York failed to cash in as a 6.5-point NFL picks home favorite to fall to 1-3 ATS over the last four games while playing Over the set O/U total for the third consecutive contest.

Prediction: I’m going to get right to the point with this Thanksgiving Day by saying that I fully expect the New York Jets to win this matchup and cash in against the spread as an 8.5-point NFL Picks home favorite against a Cincinnati Bengals team that is clearly lacking in the heart department this season.

Cincinnati has gone just 2-8 ATS in its last 10 games against their AFC counterparts and 2-5 in their last seven games against a team with a winning record.

New York is 7-3 against the NFL Picks odds in its L/10 games against a team with a losing record and 13-6 ATS in their last 19 games overall.

The Favorite and Home team in this series has gone an identical 4-1 against the NFL Picks odds and I fully expect the new York Jets to improve upon both of those ATS marks by picking up a big win in this contest.

NFL Betting Pick: New York Jets -8.5 Points
