New York Jets vs Atlanta Falcons MNF Betting Odds
Published on October 7th, 2013 2:45 pm ESTTwo struggling teams, the New York Jets and Atlanta Falcons, will square off on this week's edition of Monday Night Football.
The New York Jets, led by rookie QB Geno Smith, are 2-2 to start the season. Sure, this is an upgrade over the apocolyptic start that many prognosticators were forecasting for the team, but they are still just .500 and behind both the Dolphins and Patriots. In order to keep pace, the Jets will need a big win on the road tonight.
The Falcons have gotten off to a legitimately disappointing start, as they are 1-3 through the first four games of the season. Many people were picking the Falcons to make it through to the Super Bowl, which makes their slow start even more puzzling. The Falcons need a win tonight or else it will be Panic City in Atlanta.
Here are the odds for tonight's game:
New York Jets, +9.5, -110
Atlanta Falcons, -9.5, -110
The money line:
New York Jets, +350
Atlanta Falcons, -450
So, according to these odds, a successful $100 wager on the Jets would yield a total profit of $350, while a successful $450 wager on the Falcons would return a total profit of $100.
Finally, the over/under line is set at 44 points:
Over 44 points, -110
Under 44 points, -110

This is an incredibly important game for both teams, though Atlanta needs the win more.
Will the Jets surprise the Falcons, or will the Falcons move to 2-3 with a win?
