Underdog Jets Shock Chargers
The Chargers were solid 7.5 point favorites coming into Sunday’s game against the Jets. Betting action was balanced against the spread by our members but the consensus was that the Chargers were pretty much a lock to win outright on the money lines. It did not work out that way, however, as the Jets did not follow the script and surprised most everybody with an upset victory.
With Chargers down 17–7, San Diego kicker Nate Kaeding failed on a 40 yard field goal attempt with 4:38 remaining in the match. San Diego did score a touchdown with just over two minutes left, but were unable to recover the ball on the onside kick that followed. The Chargers could not stop New York from getting a first down on the next series and could only watch as the clock ticked down on their season and Super Bowl dreams.
Shonn Greene, the Jets rookie running back came through with another 100+ yard performance — his second straight in the playofs. He had 128 yards on 23 carries as well as a touchdown. His 53-yard touchdown run is the longest post-season run in franchise history for the Jets and gave New York a 17–7 lead with only eight minutes left in the game.
