Jets-Chargers Betting Preview

The San Diego Chargers host the New York Jets on Monday Night Football and we have the official sports gambler’s preview. Each team is 1-1 against the spread, the Chargers 0-2 straight up, the Jets 1-1.

The Jets have been excellent against the run, albeit early. They are allowing just 3.1 yards per carry and 76 rushing yards per game. The Bolts have been high powered getting 9.8 yards per pass and 7.4 yards per play.

The Chargers have to mentally recover from two last second losses including the infamous inadvertent whistle on a turnover by Denver‘s Jay Cutler that cost the Bolts victory.

All eyes are on the status of Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson, who is questionable with a toe injury. According to Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com, L.T. is very likely to play.

The Chargers have an explosive backup in Darren Sproles, but he is more of a feast or famine type than the ball control of Tomlinson.

San Diego is minus their leading tackler, LB Stephen Cooper who will be serving the third game of a four-game suspension. They are also minus All-Pro MLB Shawne Merriman, who is out for the year.

The sports gambling industry is going haywire about tonight’s side and total from GodsTips. After heart-wrenching losses Saturday night and early Sunday, winning week 7-of-8 in football seemed in jeopardy. But a strong late performance means we will clinch another winning week by sweeping the side and total tonight. Click now to purchase GodsTips.

No handicapper dominates any sport the way Joe Duffy’s GodsTips does the NFL.

Here are some betting trends, all records against the spread. The Jets are 22-6 off home loss to the divisional. They are 9-1 after scoring three points or less in the first half of last game.

San Diego is 11-24 off a divisional road loss. They are 13-3 to the conference. The Chargers have gone under 10-2 at home after getting 450 or more total yards previous game.
