Brad Pinkerton: BetMGM NFL OGP Insurance Play of the Day

If you're not playing BetMGM's football OGP Insurance promo yet, today's the day! Opt in to the promo and place a four-leg (minimum) one-game parlay on any football game, including college; if your OGP loses by one leg, you'll get your stake back in a free bet up to $25 -- and you can take advantage of this promo once every day there's a football game!

Here is my play for Thursday Night Football, using the strategy of going over the lowest game total and under the highest game total (can only lose a maximum of one leg there), and taking the most points on both teams (can only lose one leg here too); you can apply this strategy to any football game:

JAX-NYJ Over 28.5
JAX-NYJ Under 48.5
Jaguars +9.5
Jets +10.5
OGP Odds: +155

Join BetMGM to start taking advantage of their daily OGP insurance promos across NBA, NFL, NHL and college football, too! New BetMGM customers also get a risk-free first bet up to $1,000 using the offer below!

Dan Karpuc: Jaguars +1
Has something clicked for the Jags? They smoked the Titans, 36-22, in Week 14 and beat the Cowboys, 40-34, in Week 15. Now they head into this matchup with a ton of confidence, especially on the offensive end. Contrast that mindset with the Jets, who have lost three in a row (and four out of five) and have failed to cover the spread in three of their last five games. Ouch. With Mike White (ribs) still not cleared to play, New York will likely turn to Zach Wilson at quarterback once again, which makes me feel even better about being on Jacksonville’s side. Both of these teams are headed in different directions and I’m going to go with the hotter one.

Lucy Burdge: Jaguars +100

The Jaguars have a ton of momentum coming into this game and I think that will carry them to a win against the Jets. The Jaguars have won and covered in three of their last four games, while the Jets have lost their last three games, including last week's home loss to Detroit as two-point favorites. The Jaguars are also coming off of an upset win at Dallas, so I like them to beat the Jets on the road in this Thursday Night Football matchup.

Kate Constable: Over 38.5

There’s supposed to be some pretty nasty weather in East Rutherford, N.J., on Thursday, with winds over 20 mph. Typically when that’s the case, I would look toward and under, but I’m going the opposite direction in this one. Jacksonville is coming into this one with a lot of momentum, especially offensively after putting up a combined 76 points over its last two games. While the Jets defense can be stifling, the Jags should still be able to get into the end zone a few times, thanks to Trevor Lawrence playing his best football right now. New York is going to have to keep pace if they want to win this one and keep their playoff hopes alive.
