Upstart Jets Visit Colts for FOX Thursday Night Football Week 9 Betting

On Thursday night, the disappointing Indianapolis Colts will host the putrid New York Jets.  So far, the Jets remain equally inept on both sides of the line.  Most important of all, New York has been a terrible Super Bowl best betting value.  Indianapolis has outperformed their on-field performance on the board.  Injuries have decimated both teams.  New York’s rookie sensation quarterback Zach Wilson is out indefinitely with a knee injury.  Wilson was thrown to the NFL wolves with a poor supporting cast and paid the price.  Counter to that is Colts quarterback Carson Wentz remaining in the lineup.
