The New York Jets (0-3) and Philadelphia Eagles (2-2) will lock horns in the City of Brotherly Love when the two square off in an AFC vs. NFC cross-conference donnybrook.

New York Jets at Philadelphia Eagles Key Injury Concerns<br />

New York Jets at Philadelphia Eagles Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>New York Jets </b>
</p>
<p>
The Jets come in off a bye but previous to their off week fell to their divisional rivals the New England Patriots. Closing as a 20.5-point underdog, Gang Green greened up for takers when it was defeated 30-14 by the defending champions.
</p>
<p>
<b>Philadelphia Eagles </b>
</p>
<p>
The Eagles come in off one of the more impressive wins this season so far when it defeated the Green Bay Packers on the road in Lambeau Field, last Thursday. The Eagles closed as a 3.5-point dog but when onto upset the Pack 34-27 ending a five-game ATS draught in the process.

<h2>
Reasons to Avoid Philadelphia<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Eagles win over Green Bay was a heavily publicized affair and something that undoubtedly is selling the stock of this team in its follow-up. Given the quality of the win and the conceived quality of their opponent, the Eagles are in prime position for an overreaction this week, and it has likely already taken shape. After all, the Eagles opened as low as a 6.5-point favorite on some books and have now since jumped upward by a full touchdown-plus conversion.

<h2>
Reasons to Back New York<br />
</h2>
<p>
I can't honestly recall a team that has been owned in betting markets or in any form of a competitive series like the Jets against the Eagles. By virtue of this narrative alone, it is almost a certainty that the Jets are taking back an inflated number here, which makes them a value play. Knowing the Jets' uncanny ability to malinger in games that they are not supposed to win, it would be no shocker if New York were to give Philadelphia a challenge. Given the fact Philly may be inclined to take New York lightly after defeating Green Bay on the road, New York can make this a four-quarter game and come in under the line.

Jets at Eagles Prediction 10/6/19

The Jets will show up and make this a hard-fought contest. Though New York remains winless on the year, this game has the kind of backdrop that would suggest the Jets could turn their season around should they stage the seemingly unlikely upset. However, Philadelphia was lucky to survive Washington in Week One, and it speaks heavily into Philly's struggles as a double-digit favorite as they have not covered in their last two stints priced within this range. I think the Jets can still potentially win nine games and flirt with post-season possibilities should Darnold return to form when he is back healthy. However, it starts with a catalyst, and this contest could very well be that ignition point. Call me crazy, but I can see the Jets earning a historic win against Philadelphia in perhaps a bizarre set of circumstances. Nevertheless, there are more than enough points on the table here with a side of gravy should takers want seconds.
