Week 9 of the NFL starts with an AFC East clash between the and on Thursday Night Football. The Bills are three-point favorites, down a half-point from where the line opened. The Over-Under, or total number of points Vegas thinks will be scored, is 42.5, up a half-point from where it opened. Before you make any bets on Bills-Jets, you'll want to hear what Mike "Top Dog" Tierney has to say. In Vikings-Browns from London last Sunday, Tierney told readers to go
Braxton Berrios Jersey Over 38 without hesitation. The result? Minnesota 33, Cleveland 16, another easy cash. Amazingly, it also helped improve Tierney's Over-Under record to 14-6 this season after he went a blistering 22-9 last year. He was 2-0 last week and has a gift for picking totals.

In the last six games between the Bills and Jets, the total has gone Over 42.5 just once, and that game included a defensive touchdown. The Bills have held every opponent except one to 20 points or le s this season. Tierney also knows these two teams played in Week 1; the Bills won 21-12 at home, a total of just 33 points.
