 The New York Jets and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will both be gunning for a victory on Sunday at 1:00pm EST when they meet at Raymond James Stadium. NFL odds makers currently have the Jets listed as 3-point favorites in week 14 NFL betting picks against the Buccaneers while have the game's total sitting at 37 for this game that can be seen on CBS. New York's defense held Buffalo to 194 total yards as the Jets defeated the Bills 19-13 in week 13. The Jets covered the 3-point NFL betting spread but the combined score fell UNDER that game's posted total of 37 at online sportsbooks. Mark Sanchez threw 7-15 for 104 yards including the go-ahead touchdown to Braylen Edwards in the win against the Bills before injuring his right knee. An MRI showed that Sanchez sprainined the posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and Vegas Sports-Odds.com has confirmed on Friday that he will not play this weekend against the Bucs along with cornerback Dwight Lowery and lineman Rober Turner. Heading into Sunday's game, the Jets are 6-6 straight up, 6-6 against the spread as a favorite in NFL betting picks and 5-5 when playing on grass. The Buccaneers lost to Carolina 16-6 as a 3.5-point underdog in week 13 NFL betting odds. The combined score fell UNDER the posted over/under total of 40 at online sportsbooks. Rookie quarterback Josh Freeman threw 23-44 for 321-yards with five interceptions for Tampa Bay while Antonio Bryant had five receptions for 115 yards."That's just completely unacceptable," said Freeman after the game. "I want to play in this league a long time. Guys that throw a lot of picks usually don't last." The Buccaneers are having a terrible season for NFL betting going 1-11 straight up, 4-8 against the spread as an underdog in NFL picks and 2-8 when playing in December. Fernandez's NFL Betting Picks: Tampa Bay is just not the team to look at when making your NFL bets or even considering underdog parlays. The Bucs are 1-9 on grass and 1-9 when playing against non-divisional opponents but with Sanchez and many other key players out for the Jets, could this game be the second victory of the season for the Bucs? I couldn't believe my ears when I made the Browns my NFL pick on Monday night and I don't believe them again but my NFL betting pick for this match-up on CBS will be to take the Buccaneers +3 at home against the Jets. Vegas odds at Caesars sportsbook have the New York Jets -3 (-120) favorites in NFL betting odds against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a total of 37. |
