The Cincinnati Bengals vs. New York Jets could prove an interesting game as the Bengals come into this one desperate for a win.

The odds on this game have moved between Jets -6 and -9 ½, quite a disparity to say the least. Most books in fact opened the line at -6 earlier in the week.

The home team has won 9 of 10 in this series dating back to 1987. Over a good portion of this period, both teams were pretty horrendous.

The Jets are 6-1 since 1992 with the Bengals having won the last game in the series last October.

Ahhh but here is where things get really interesting: The Bengals have only lost by more than the current 9 ½ point line twice over the last ten games in the series. Likewise, they have lost by more than 9 ½ points only once this season and that was against the now 5-0 Tennessee Titans.

Combine the above stats with the fact that the Jets are 1-6 ATS vs. a team with a losing record and are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a S.U. win, we have a real live dog here folks.

We're not big on picking teams with 0-5 records, but the desperation factor combined with heavily favored historical stats have prompted us here at Gambling911.com to do just that.

BetUS.com was one of the handful of books offering Cincinnati at +9 ½ odds. Sign up today and get a huge 50 percent cash bonus added to your initial deposit (restrictions apply).
