| Aug 16th, 2010 The New York Giants vs. New York Jets Monday Night Football betting line is up. At BetUs Sportsbook, the Jets are -3, but just -2.5 at SportsBook. The total is 33.5.
Here is the official betting preview. The Giants have a new defensive coordinator in Perry Fewell. He has installed a much more aggressive defense than they played last year.
Emotions will likely be much higher than for most preseason openers. There has been significant trash talk about the opening of New Meadowlands Stadium and who “owns this town” now that the Jets no longer play at “Giants Stadium”.
Jets starters will play one quarter, plus a series, though minus their best defensive player Darrelle Revis, a holdout. Rookie Kyle Wilson starts at left corner. WR Santonio Holmes will likely play longer than the rest of the starters.
It’s the first game for Jets QB Mark Sanchez following arthroscopic surgery on his left knee.
The Giants are without several starters led by RG Chris Sneed, WR Steve Smith, TE Kevin Boss, LB Keith Bulluck, and S Kenny Phillips. Their starters will play 12-15 snaps.
With a total of four TEs sidelined, the Giants have been limited in practice.
