  NFL(465) Minnesota Vikings at (466) New York Jets1:00pm EDT - Oct 21/2018
  THE PLAY: Total Over 46.5 (-110)

  3% Take Minnesota – New York OVER (#465-466)

  The Jets have been fully prepared and facing a ‘less than elite’ defense three times this year.  Sam Darnold excelled in all three of those ballgames; 48-17, 34-16 and 42-34 Jets victories, all three flying Over the total with room to spare.

  Think about New York’s season.  In Week 1, they dominated Detroit on Monday Night, earning a blowout victory.  In Week 2, they faced a divisional foe on a short week and lost.  In Week 3, they had an even shorter week, with travel.  Baker Mayfield came off the bench & the Jets defense had no film on him.  It showed.  Then the Jets had to face an angry Jags team with a truly elite defense coming off a poorly played home loss.  They were overwhelmed. 

  Two weeks ago the Jets had normal rest AND faced a less than elite defense.  They ran the ball for 323 yards at 8.5 yards per carry.  Darnold averaged 8.2 yards per pass ATTEMPT in that ballgame.  Last week against Indy, it was more of the same: 8.3 yards per pass from Darnold while Bilal Powell and Isaiah Crowell ripped off chunks of yardage on the ground.

  The betting markets seem convinced that the Vikings defense is still elite this season, betting this total down from the opener.  The numbers, however, show a very different story.  Minnesota has allowed 6.0 yards per play on defense this year, below the 5.7 ypp league average.  Opposing quarterbacks have a QB rating of 103.1 against this Vikings secondary – only Oakland, Tampa Bay, New Orleans and Detroit are worse.  Even limited offensive teams like the Bills and Cardinals have had success putting points on the board against the Vikings over-rated stop unit.

  The Jets secondary is riddled with key injuries this week, with Trumaine Johnson, Buster Skrine, Marcus Maye and Leonard Williams all nursing wounds.   Minnesota’s offense is putting up points in bunches right now, with Kirk Cousins enjoying tremendous chemistry with Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs.  Latavius Murray is coming off his career best rushing game, gaining 155 on the ground last week.  Expect points, not punts.  Take the Over
