NFL preseason probabilities like the Jets to win the AFC East Division at the sportsbook but it will not be simple as the Patriots and Dolphins are strong football betting contenders.
The Dolphins seem to be a potentially powerful football betting value.
The Jets are arriving off a hugely effective and surprising 2009 campaign in which they went 9-7 both straight up and versus the spread prior to starting out on a playoff run that took them through Cincinnati and San Diego to the AFC Championship at Indianapolis, where they were on top midway through before at last going down only 30 minutes shy of a Super Bowl bid.
Because rookie Mark Sanchez struggled hugely, the New York Jets did all of that lacking a competent quarterback. However he was bailed out by an outstanding running game and a defense that was one of the Greatest in the NFL. Sanchez is relatively new to the league, having been a 1st round pick by the New York Jets in the 2009 NFL Draft. He was named the starting quarterback after he outperformed veteran Kellen Clemens in the course of the off season.
Rex Ryan, the team’s rookie head coach, proved to be a great leader however the New York Jets won’t surprise anybody in 2010 and their problem will be to play as well as the hunted as they did as hunters. There are reputable value concerns about the Jets as the prices on them may be overlays.
The New England Patriots were a playoff team again last year but were crushed in their post season home loss to the ravens. The Patriots went 8-7-1 against the spread while finishing 10-6 straight up.
New England is a experienced and veteran team that is accustomed to success, unlike the Jets, and could prove to be a more strong contender. They surely have an edge at quarterback with Tom Brady. The Patriots will always be an interesting choice with the football probabilities with coach Bill Belichick and a solid defense.
The Miami Dolphins were a playoff squad in 2008 under rookie head coach Tony Sparano but had a tough 7-9 season last year when quarterback Chad Pennington was lost to injury. Pennington was taken out with a dislocated shoulder and torn rotator cuff, forcing Henne into his job as starting quarterback. Henne, a 2nd round draft pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, better in time as the new signal caller and will enter camp as the number one man. Reportedly, the Dolphins have been planning on grooming him for the starting quarterback position for more than a year.
Miami could be 1 of the most improved teams in the league as Henne is now more practiced. They also should expect an much better defense and reliable running game.
Since they are rebuilding with a new front office and without great expertise after going 6-10 last year, the Buffalo Bills are a long shot with the NFL preseason odds.
