The Jaguars-Jets betting line was among the biggest of the week despite both teams coming into this game at 1-0. The New York spread was -9. Some books still had the line at -10. It actually opened at -12.
New York beat Dallas this past Sunday night.
Nick Folk kicked a 50-yard field goal with 27 seconds left, giving them a 27-24 victory.
"It was a draining game," Jets head coach Rex Ryan said. "I am just so proud we were able to pull this thing out, for the town, as well. I probably even feel better about that than I do for our football team."
Meanwhile, Jacksonville got the job done against Tennessee at home last Sunday, also in the final minutes with a 16-14 victory.
The Jaguars have enjoyed success against the Jets in their three head-to-head games played since 2005, the last of which was a Jacksonville 24-22 victory in the Meadowlands.
While Jacksonville is 5-1 Against The Spread in their last 6 games following a ATS win, they are also 1-7 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
The Jets are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games after allowing less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game.
