00:00Let's take a look at the AFC East winner.

00:05Now with the coaching change in New York, you see the Jets sitting at 3-1, plus 3.10.

00:11The Bills are minus 2.30 to win this thing, then you have the Dolphins at plus 7.50.

00:16Let's have the conversation about that Jet plus money spot and what the person that's

00:21up and playing with house money might want to do here.

00:26Well look, to me, it's now the Buffalo Bills' division to lose.

00:30And I know the last couple weeks, they've been losing.

00:34So Buffalo Bills, this is your moment here to put your stamp on this division, handle

00:39your business, and for Josh Allen to play like an MVP, make the most of what you've

00:44got here.

00:45Shakir hopefully is going to play, James Cook is hopefully going to play, but you need more.

00:49Buffalo Bills need to go out and add another wide receiver.

00:51I don't know who that guy is going to be, but they need to add somebody because I don't

00:54think they have enough of the position to compete with the Ravens or the Chiefs or those

00:58kind of teams.

00:59I just don't think they have that.

01:00I wanted to look up this number too because I thought it was very important.

01:03I mentioned earlier about whenever you get a team that fires a head coach like the New

01:07York Jets did, I tend to run to that line and bet that team on the money line and typically

01:13they're an underdog because they're a team that's losing.

01:16I have hesitancy with this, but the number is also really interesting.

01:2041% of the amount of times that those teams have won.

01:24Now that doesn't sound like a lot in your mind, but it actually is when you consider

01:27these teams aren't good, which is why they're firing a head coach in the first place.

01:31So the line typically also increases, usually it goes from 36% to 54% in terms of the increase

01:39after that coaching firing where the line grows.

01:42So you're making a play here where the return on investment is huge and that is why I typically

01:50go and run to do that.

01:52I have pause because I'm just not sure of the chaos within the Jets organization and

01:56it doesn't feel like the typical, let's rally around the situation.

02:03This isn't like Gruden gets fired and everybody loves Basaccia.

02:06They all rally around Basaccia, just as an example.

02:09Or when Josh McDaniels gets fired and nobody liked Josh McDaniels, but everybody loved

02:13Antonio Pierce.

02:14Everybody wanted to play hard for him last year.

02:16We don't know much about this defensive coordinator who's now taking over.

02:21We already see the first thing he does is he creates some tension there on the offensive

02:24side by taking away the play calling.

02:27So this is a very complicated situation.

02:29I'm staying away from it.

02:31But I do think this is an opportunity for the Buffalo Bills to really stamp this division

02:36here and stamp it hard.

02:37So we'll see if they can handle their business or maybe they do just hand the ball off or

02:42get the ball in Breeze Hall's hands a lot more and play defense and do what Robert Sala

02:47probably wanted to do more of, which would be unfortunate for Robert Sala to have to

02:50watch on Monday night.
