New York Jets NFL Week 13 Odds
For several years after his firing by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jon Gruden was on the top of many fan lists to take over their respective teams both in the colleges and the pros. Each coaching carousel season Gruden would be the subject of rumors, speculation, and flight tracking. Fans would try to find out wherever he owned property or where his announcing assignments would be. Regardless of which fan base it was the unanimous consensus was that “Chucky” would cure all ills for any team that he joined. When Raiders owner Mark Davis was putting together the transfer of his franchise to Las Vegas from Oakland he knew that he would need a marquee man and drawing card to generate interest and sell corporate suites. Nobody was a bigger name candidate than Jon Gruden. The fact that Gruden had an earlier successful stint with the Raiders gave the Silver and Black faithful hope that their team would get back into contender status after a virtual lost generation of fans. While Gruden was not a quick fix, he has the Raiders going in the right direction with an impressive and diversified offense. The defense is very much a work in progress and is nowhere near yet an asset.

New York Jets Week 13 Matchup
On Sunday, December 6, 2020 the New York Jets will host the Las Vegas Raiders at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Kickoff time is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET with television coverage on CBS.
Jon Gruden was humbled into a reminder Sunday of just how far the Raiders still have to go after a 43-6 loss at the Atlanta Falcons as 3.5-point road chalks with the game going under the total of 53. The Raiders committed five turnovers and suffered five sacks. Las Vegas was only 3-12 on third downs while Atlanta was 9-19. Just for bad measure the Raiders committed 11 penalties for 141 yards.
As a result, the Raiders fell to 6-5 straight up, 7-4 against the spread, and 7-3 over the total. Las Vegas ranks 17th in the NFL for total offense, 19th for passing, 8th for rushing, 14th for scoring, and 18th for turnovers. Defensively Las Vegas is 22nd in the NFL, 27th against the pass, 12th against the rush, 28th for points allowed, and 25th for takeaways.
In this head to head series the Jets have covered just one of their last four games against the Raiders with five of the last seven games between these two teams going over the total. Las Vegas has struggled to get the money in road games with the Jets, however. New York has covered four of their last five home games against the Silver and Black. Three of the last four games between these teams at New York have gone under the total.
New York Jets Week 12 Recap
It was more of the same for the Jets in a 20-3 loss to the Miami Dolphins as 7.5-point home dogs with the game going under the total of 46.5. The Jets are 0-11 straight up, 3-8 against the spread and 5-6 under the total. Sam Darnold returned under center throwing two interceptions while getting sacked three times.
The Jets rank 32nd in the NFL for both total offense and scoring. Defensively New York is 28th overall and 29th for points allowed.
New York Jets fans checked out long ago as their entire focus is on the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft. Jets fans expect that they will land Clemson Tigers quarterback Trevor Lawrence to become a modern-day version of Joe Namath as the savior of the franchise. It is also understood as part of that dream that the current Jets coaching and administrative staff will have to be fired. If the Jets don’t get their act together in that department, Lawrence could either demand a trade or go back to Clemson for another year of college.
Betting activity will lean strongly towards the Raiders as the Jets have no appealing qualities for gamblers to cling to beyond an inflated and sweetened price from the oddsmakers that know without the extra sugar they’d face a rush to the window on the Raiders.
