Jets at Dolphins NFL Betting Odds

The Brett Favre era in New York officially gets underway on Sunday, September 7th as the New York Jets open up their NFL betting season in Miami to face the Dolphins.

While Favre is getting all of the press, former Jets’ quarterback Chad Pennington may end up getting the last laugh as he is now the man in Miami. What looked like a dull game on the NFL schedule for Week 1 now has a lot of interesting sidelights.

The Jets with Favre suddenly look like serious NFL betting contenders in the AFC. New York had already made some nice addition including Alan Faneca who should protect Favre upfront.

Wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery could be poised for a big year with Favre throwing to him and Thomas Jones should have some nice holes to run through with defenses focused on Favre.
