NFL Week 8 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Patriots vs. Jets (2022)

If you followed along last week, I acknowledged taking the Jets at +3.5 and the Chiefs at -1.5 for Week 7.

The Jets are now sitting at +1, while the Chiefs had added a point to their spread and are now sitting at -2.5. This is why it pays to get in on lines a week early.

Here are three early options for Week 8 to consider in the NFL. Let’s take a closer look at Patriots vs. Jets.

NFL Week 8 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Patriots vs. Jets

New England Patriots vs. New York Jets

I’ve enjoyed watching the Bailey Zappe show in New England. Zappe likely starts in Week 7. But what if Mac Jones comes back to start Week 8?

If I were the Patriots, I’d be a bit worried. Zappe has been excellent and has shown more potential than Jones has. We haven’t seen Zappe for an extended period, but let’s just call it how we see it. The Patriots have had a ton of success recently, and Jones could come in and ruin it.

What if the Jets beat the Broncos, and Jones returns for the Patriots? Other bettors would think the same way I’m thinking. I’d much rather back the Jets at home if the Patriots decide to start Mac Jones in Week 8.

Get the Jets as underdogs in Week 8 right now.

Bet: Jets +1 (-110)
