  • In the NFL public betting splits for the Week 9 MNF game between the Los Angeles Chargers and New York Jets, moneyline splits are going with LA
  • However, spread splits like the Jets, who are 3.5-point home underdogs
  • Over/under bettors are divided in their opinions on how to play the total of 39.5 points in LA vs NY public betting trends

From an outright outcome point of view, the Los Angeles Chargers have mostly enjoyed the journey when they make a road trip to face the New York Jets. Both the oddsmakers and the Chargers vs Jets public betting splits are seeing that trend continuing.

LA is set as the 3.5-point away favorites over New York in the Chargers vs Jets odds for the Week 9 MNF game in this battle of AFC rivals that dates back to the days of the old AFL. LA is also drawing the larger percentage of the public moneyline splits.

However, the Chargers haven’t found covering to be as much of a delight when traveling to face the Jets. The two teams have split the against the spread outcome 3-3 in the last six games in which the Jets were the home team. It figures then that underdog New York is pulling more of the public  moneyline action.

There’s divided support on the over/under in the Chargers vs Jets public betting splits on the total of 39.5 points for this game.

Let’s take a deeper dive into what the numbers are showing in the NFL public betting trends for the Chargers vs Jets MNF game as of Monday morning.

Spread Bettors Backing Jets

The best NFL betting apps are backing the Chargers as the 3.5-point away chalk, which is a bit surprising. In the NFL betting odds, the Jets are 3-1 ATS as a home team this season. Meanwhile, the Chargers are 1-2 ATS as a road squad.

The public betting splits are recognizing this trend and putting their money on the Jets. New York’s AFC squad is generating 55% of handle and 56% of bets from the people in the spread splits as +3.5-point underdogs.

The Jets are 6-3 ATS in the last nine games against the Chargers. New York is also 3-1 ATS as a home underdog.

The Jets are 9-7 ATS in their last 16 games against AFC opposition. They are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings with clubs from the AFC West. As for the Chargers, they’re 1-4 in the last five games facing an AFC opponent and 1-6 ATS when that opponent is from the AFC East.

Moneyline Action Revving Up Chargers

You have to go back to 1960-62, when both teams were in the fledgling AFL, to find the Chargers beating the Jets in five successive games. They’ll accomplish that feat again with a victory in the Week 9 MNF game.

Meanwhile, the Jets are looking to win back-to-back MNF games for the first time since 2003-04, but the people don’t think it’s going to happen. Moneyline splits are showing the favored Chargers getting 51% of handle and a whopping 82% of bets.

Looking at the Chargers vs Jets picks, the Jets are 4-9 SU in their last 13 games. It’s not much better for LA, which is 1-4 SU over the past five road games.

Public Uncertain On Which Way Total Is Going

The over is 6-2 in the last eight games between these two teams, but much like the totals set for the Chargers vs Jets player props on this game, lately, the numbers are lower. In two of the last three meetings, the under was the winning play.

Perhaps that explains why public betting handle on the total of 39.5 points is leaning to the under at 54%. Then again, it could also be due to the fact that New York is surrendering just 18.4 points per game this season.

On the other hand, the Chargers are the worst pass defense in the NFL, allowing nearly 300 yards per game through the air. Maybe this is causing 71% of public bets to be going with the over.

Each of the last five Chargers games have gone under. Five of the past six home games played by the Jets also recorded an under on the total.
