Oddsmakers flip the script by choosing Jets as favorites over Bengals

New York has won three straight to improve to 4-7 on the season. After a dominating performance against the Raiders on Sunday, oddsmakers are now willing to roll with Gang Green in Week 13.

The Jets will travel to Cincinnati this week as 3.5-point favorites, per BetMGM. Despite a 34-3 win last week, oddsmakers are only favoring New York by a narrow margin against an 0-11 Bengals team.

Still, the Jets are -186 in the money line, -115 against the spread and the greater odds sit with the over, set at 39.5 total points.

The Bengals, as 3.5-point underdogs, sit at +155 in the money line, -106 against the spread and hold the advantage of playing at home on Sunday.

The last time these two teams met was in September 2016, when the Jets lost on favorable territory, 23-22. However, New York has gotten the better of the Bengals all-time. The series currently sits at 17-9-0 by way of gang Green.

Still, the Jets have dropped their last two meetings with Cincinnati. They’ll take the field at 1 p.m. on Sunday with hopes of flipping the script yet again.
