Jets vs. Colts NFL Betting Picks + Odds Shopping
Finding the most profitable NFL betting picks has never been easier. The newly updated OddsShopper tool is like the Amazon of sports betting. Simply filter, sort the page and find the NFL best bets within seconds, as seen below!
Ty Johnson Under 12.5 Yards Rushing (-115, PointsBet)
As shown by the GIF, sorting the player props for this game by the expected win percentage brings this prop to the very top. This tool gives the over on this Ty Johnson rushing prop an 87% chance to hit and an expected ROI of 62%.
Much of the excitement in this Jets backfield have gone to rookie Michael Carter, and for good reason. However, Johnson has done well with his limited snaps this season as well. He has seen four or more carries in each of the past three games and five games total this season. Averaging 3.3 yards per carry, four carries is all Carter needs to hit the over. The Awesemo Player Props Tool projects Johnson for 27.11 yards rushing tonight, crushing this prop.
Jonathan Taylor Over 16.5 Yards Receiving (-18, BetMGM)
The Jets have surrendered the second-most yards receiving in the NFL to running backs this season, allowing over 80 yards per game. With the Colts using Nyheim Hines for less than a third of snaps, Jonathan Taylor has been more involved in the receiving game. He has three receptions in four of his past five games. Awesemo’s Player Props Tool projects Taylor to total 29.03 yards receiving tonight, giving this prop a 72% chance to hit the over and a 34% ROI.
Michael Pittman Jr. Over 67.5 Yards Receiving (-115, PointsBet)
The Colts are without T.Y. Hilton yet again tonight, which solidifies Michael Pittman Jr.’s role as the top wide receiver on this offense. He has totaled over 67.5 yards receiving in back-to-back games and five of his eight games this season. With Carson Wentz having very little talent in his receiving corps, look for him to keep looking Pittman’s way, as he is seeing over eight targets per game this season. The OddsShopper Tool gives this over a 60% chance to hit and a 13% ROI.
