Ravens vs. Jets MNF Odds and NFL Picks Preview

The MNF betting between the NY Jets vs. the Baltimore Ravens has Baltimore -3 at BetUs Sportsbook with a total of 32.5. 5 Dimes has an option of Baltimore -2.5 -125.

Jets head coach Rex Ryan returns to Baltimore where he has great success as defensive coordinator. The two teams run almost identical defenses.

Baltimore is off a game in which they shut out Washington, allowing 2.9 yards per carry and allowing the Skins to convert once in 11 third-down situations.

In addition to Ryan, also returning as Jets are LB Bart Scott and S Jim Leonard, two starters from the Ravens team that went to the AFC Championship contest.

Jets rookie Mark Sanchez gets the start at QB. Kellen Clemens will take over sometime in the second quarter. It is widely believed that if Sanchez plays well, he will win the starting position.

Pro Bowl C Nick Mangold missed last week, but is back for the Jets. However Pro Bowl LG Alan Faneca is out and RT Damien Woody is doubtful.

Baltimore will play their starters into the second quarter and possibly as much as a half. However veterans such as Ray Lewis, Trevor Pryce, and Ed Reed will be on snap counts. Pro Bowl LB Terrell Suggs is out.
