Lean – NEW YORK JETS (+3/+3.5) over Kansas City

The Jets are one of the most surprising teams of the season after matching their preseason market win total in the first 5 games. However, it’s important to note New York certainly benefitted from a soft schedule thus far only facing two teams above average in net yards per play. In fact, the Jets’ +0.1 net yards per play (5.4 yppl offense and 5.3 yppl allowed) turns into a -0.3 net yppl when compensating for opponents faced.

However, Kansas City is only at +0.1 net compensated yppl and our advanced metrics favor the Chiefs by only 1 ½ points in this game.

Kansas City does have one clear match-up advantage, however, as the Jets defense is surrendering 8.0 yards per target to opposing tight ends, 7th-worst in the league, and Chiefs’ star TE Travis Kelce can certainly exploit that weakness.

Darrelle Revis will make his debut for Kansas City. Revis started shakily in the first half of last season allowing 1.56 yards per cover snap before turning it on in the second half allowing just 0.88 yards per cover snap so it’s difficult to know what to expect from him in his debut with the Chiefs.

I think there is some value in favor of the Jets, who apply to a 30-3-2 ATS late-season home underdog situation. Kansas City has lost as big favorites in consecutive games but teams with a winning record coming off consecutive upset losses are just 17-47-2 ATS in road games if not an underdog of at least 6 points and favorites in that situation are even worse. I’ll lean with the Jets at +3 or more.
