The Cleveland Browns Take On The New York Jets Sans Darnold

When playing the New York Jets, the Cleveland Browns are 1-5 against the spread over their last six matchups.
Both the Browns and the New York Jets are 0-1 to begin the season.
The Jets are 1-10 straight up in their last 11 games played.

NEW YORK – Can the Cleveland Browns beat the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium for Monday Night Football? The Jets will be playing without their star quarterback, Sam Darnold who could be out for up to a month with mono. Taking his place will be 27-year old quarterback Trevor Siemian, who has started 24 games, winning 13 of them.

“He’s not a panic guy, he’s got a coolness about him and when things change at that position sometimes other guys can panic a little,” said Jets’ head coach Adam Gase. “But when you have a guy that is really calm and steady, then that calms everybody else down.”

Siemian didn’t see any playing action all of last season so he has been a bit out of practice when it comes to live gameplay. Along with Darnold, the Jets are also out a linebacker in C.J. Mosely, who has a groin injury. Both teams had bad starts to the season, with the Browns losing to the Tennessee Titans 43-13 and the Jets giving up their lead to the Buffalo Bills, losing 17-16.

Despite the ending score, the Browns played well from a defensive standpoint against the Titans. They were able to hold Tennessee when it came to third downs, only allowing them to advance two out of ten times. Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr, 26, will be making his return to New York, but in a different jersey. OBJ has a kind of magic when it comes to Monday night football. In his last five years in the league, he has had 51 completed catches for 755 yards with a total of seven touchdowns, all during Monday night football games.

With all of New York’s injuries and the Browns' poor performance during their season debut, the odds within a possession between the teams. The Browns have a spread set at (-7, -115) while the Jets are coming into the game with a line of (+7, -105). Moneyline wagers are favoring Cleveland with odds of -300 and the underdog Jets sit at +250. For the point total, the oddsmakers at sportsbooks for New Yorkers looked to adjust the line, but it remains similar to where it opened at 45 points. The game starts at 8:15 p.m. EST and will be aired on the ESPN network.

New York Jets Sign Linebacker Stephone Anthony

Linebacker Stephone Anthony was picked up by the New York Jets after being cut by the Atlanta Falcons.
The Jets had a record of 4-12 in their 2018 season.
The New York Jets have +8000 odds of winning the Super Bowl this season.

NEW YORK – The New York Jets have just signed linebacker Stephone Anthony, 27, after suffering the loss of linebacker Avery Williamson to a season-ending ACL tear. Williamson sustained the injury in the second game of the preseason against the Atlanta Falcons. Head coach Adam Gase blames himself for losing Williamson.

“Looking back on it, hindsight is 20/20. I wish I would have gotten him out of there a series earlier. But I've talked with him and it's on me. I'm the one that has to make that call and get him out of there,” said Gase. “But we didn't and that's a shame because he was having a good camp.”

In an effort to rectify what he believes is his fault, he has chosen to sign Stephone Anthony to take Williamson’s place. SportsBettingNewYork knows these two linebackers hold drastically different records spanning almost the same amount of time. Since 2014, Williamson has had 497 tackles in his career. While Anthony has had 149 career tackles since 2015.

Anthony played with the Miami Dolphins for the last two seasons, recording 22 tackles in 24 game appearances. With the signing of Anthony came the departure of safety Santos Ramirez.

Gase has coached Anthony in the past during his time with the Dolphins. In July, he was signed to the Atlanta Falcons as a free agent and played in their preseason games only to be cut from the team three days before the Jets matchup that would take out Williamson.

Stephone Anthony will get his first action as a member of the New York Jets on Saturday in their preseason game against the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are the favorite to win with odds of -155. New York has odds of +135 to come out with the W. The game starts at 7:30 pm ET on Saturday, August 24th. It will be broadcast in limited areas on the CBS network.

NFL Preseason: NY Goes Head-to-Head With Giants Vs. Jets Game 1

Christina Monroe — Thu, 01 Aug 2019 19:34:34 +0000

While this matchup is always tough, the New York Jets historically lose in the end.
In 4 of the last 5 games, all totals bets for the New York Giants reached the over mark.

NEW YORK – The New York Jets and the New York Giants will go helmet to helmet for their first preseason game on August 8th at MetLife Stadium. These two teams are rivalry teams for football fans like the New York Mets and New York Yankees are for fans of baseball. Both teams have a lot to prove this season.

The New York Jets

The New York Jets have undergone a coaching staff makeover and they have Adam Gase as their new head coach. Sam Darnold, 22, will be taking the lead in the quarterback position. Darnold has shown to be doing great work with the team during camp. Running back Le’Veon Bell, 27, missed the 2018 season due to not wanting to participate in a franchise tag with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

He signed a 4-year contract with the Jets in 2019 worth over $52 million. The last time he played professional football he rushed almost 1,300 yards and had 9 touchdowns in 2017. Darnell and Bell will be seen on the field for the Giants game. Both members of the offense and defense will be vying for starting positions during the regular season.

Last season the Jets had an average of 20.8 points for each game. They gave up 27.6 points per game to their opponents. They went 4-12 for the season. The New York Jets have +8000 odds of winning the Super Bowl

The New York Giants

The New York Giants have not had stability in their performance since their Super Bowl win in 2011. Head coach Pat Shurmur will be entering his second season as head coach. This season will be about showing the fans they can count on the Giants to do better. The Giants have beaten the Jets 5 out of the last 6 games they’ve played against each other.

Veteran quarterback Eli Manning will be throwing for the Giants. However, they have rookie quarterback Daniel Jones ready to go if Manning shows any signs of not playing well. A lot will be put in the hands of star running back Saquon Barkley who has shown he can do anything on the field.

The Giants allowed teams to score an average of 25.8 points each game last season. They managed an average of 23.1 points scored per game in 2018. The team had a record of 5-11 last year. They have +8000 odds to win the Super Bowl.

The game on August 8th is scheduled for 7:00 pm ET. The NFL Network will be airing the event. The New York Jets are favored to win at New York sports betting sites with odds of -125 while the New York Giants have odds of +105. Preseason or not, this is definitely going to be a rivalry game worth watching.

New York Jets Star Chris Herndon To Miss First 4 Games

Christina Monroe — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 20:03:07 +0000

Star tight end Chris Herndon has been suspended until October.
Herndon pleaded guilty to a DWI in January of this year.
The Jets season starts on September 8th where they will play the Buffalo Bills.

NEW YORK – Tight end Chris Herndon, 23, has been suspended for four games due to an incident that occurred in June 2018. Herndon was charged with a DWI and pleaded guilty in January 2019 after a woman involved in the accident claimed injury. These legal troubles have put him in direct violation of NFL policies and programs on the abuse of substances.

Herndon will not be able to play until October 7th. The Jets do not have much talent in the form of a replacement for Herndon through the four games that he will be missing. During his NFL debut last season, Herndon went 502 yards with 39 receptions and 4 touchdowns.

"He's a unicorn type of player, you don't see a lot of these players that can do all three phases of the game. Chris is unique," Jets Coach Adam Gase said at the NFL Combine workouts in Indianapolis. "I don't think you'll find a lot of tight ends that are able to be on the field all three downs. Obviously, he's a very good receiver, he's very good in the run game, and he did a really good job in pass protection last year.”

What Will The Jets Do In Herndon’s Absence?

Quarterback Sam Darnold has built up terrific chemistry with Herndon last season which only got stronger during the offseason. Until he can return to the field in October, it looks as though the New York Jets will try not to make any heavy plays in the tight end position. They have newly acquired Trevon Wesco from West Virginia in the fourth round of the NFL draft but whether or not Wesco will be used as a tight end or a fullback remains to be seen.

The other two tight ends on the roster are Daniel Brown and Eric Tomlinson. Brown had zero receptions last season and Tomlinson went 72 yards last season with a total of 8 receptions. SportsBettingNewYork.com understands the Jets are going to have to improvise until October when their star tight end can resume playing. Although he has been suspended for four games, Herndon has been allowed to participate in team practices and camps.

The first game for the New York Jets is set for September 8th at 1:00 pm ET against the Buffalo Bills. The game will be aired on the CBS network. The Jets are the favorite to win with odds of -170 while the Bills have been given odds of +150.

Betting Odds And Outlook For The Buffalo Bills Season

Michael Molter — Thu, 11 Jul 2019 14:09:55 +0000

The Buffalo Bills have made the playoffs two times (1999 and 2017) in the last 20 seasons, losing both Wild Card games.
Buffalo is the third-favorite to win the AFC East, as the New England Patriots and New York Jets are listed above them.
Since Marv Levy’s 1980s-90s tenure, the Bills have yet to keep a coach for four full seasons or more.

NEW YORK – The first Buffalo Bills preseason game is less than a month away and fans of the NFL are licking their chops ready to bet on this upcoming season.

But betting lines and odds have been released, despite a few more weeks of waiting. While the Bills aren’t projected to have a Super Bowl winning season, you can find value in odds in a variety of other locations (however if you wanted to bet on them to win, do it now, as the odds are +10000).

Will The Buffalo Bills Make The Playoffs?

Yes: +325
No: -450

The Bills made the playoffs two seasons ago, breaking a nearly 20-year drought. In the 1990s, Buffalo went on a run, making the playoffs in 8 times. There is potential for this current squad to match that production, especially with the likes of Josh Allen.

Allen comes into his second NFL season after proving he can get it done on the ground as well as through the air. He finished with a team-high in rushing touchdowns, rushing yards, and (removing 1 rush for 9 yards from Patrick DiMarco), average yards per rush.

However, with the addition of TJ Yeldon and Frank Gore amongst veteran LeSean McCoy, Allen will likely see a step back in rushing production this year. Still, he remains the only Bills player aside from “LeShady”, on the odds board shown to lead the league in rushing touchdowns (+5000) at the end of the year.

Betting on McCoy to have a league-leading rushing season is questionable at best, as he has only played a full season once in the last four years. But McCoy has six seasons (of ten) rushing for 1000+ yards, so anything is possible.

Who Will Win The AFC East?

Bills: +1000

Buffalo comes in as the third-favorite in the division to take the title. The New England Patriots are the clear leader amongst the AFC East teams, having won the previous 10 titles. But with another year under Tom Brady’s belt and the retirement of Rob Gronkowski, the Pats aren’t as deadly as years’ past.

The Bills will still need to find a way to win, as they are 73-43-1 against the Patriots all-time, including an 0-5 record in the last few meetings.

The New York Jets are second to win the division but hired a coach in Adam Gase who has a career losing record. His sole playoff appearance came in his first season with the Miami Dolphins but led his team to a diminishing record both years after.

The Bills do hold the all-time lead over the Jets, sitting with a 62-55 record but spent the majority of the 2010s splitting the regular season victories.

As for the Dolphins, we’ll just leave this fun fact: they are last in the league (odds-wise) to make the playoffs this year.

How Many Games Will The Buffalo Bills Win?

Over 6.5: -170
Under 6.5: +140

Oddsmakers have set the season mark for the Buffalo Bills rather low and the bettors are clearly showing that the over is favorited.

Though the Bills would have missed this mark last year (finished with 6 wins), the first year under coach Sean McDermott would have made the cut (with 9 wins).

With one more year under center, SportsBettingNewYork.com thinks Josh Allen should find much more comfort in McDermott’s system, leading the team to 7 or more victories.

Despite going through 10 coaches over the past 20 seasons, the Bills have won 7 or more games in more than half of those instances (11). However, their six seasons with 6 wins (in the same time span) might leave bettors slightly nervous on taking the over.

To help ease the tension, looking at more recent production in Buffalo should leave bettors feeling slightly more confident, as the Bills have won 7 or more games in all of the last five seasons except last year.
