Oops you're right I meant Thebes. I think if he pulls his troops out of Thebes and lets Spullla raze it, he can limit his losses to Sparta and Thebes if he can get some support from Ottomans

Question #1:
If you were Jowy, would you take Spullla's deal?
Question #2:
Will Jowy take Spullla's deal?
My answers: Yes to #1, No to #2. Jowy is going to fight to the bitter end, he's not going to play an island game like Broker & Plako are.

#1) Nope why should I. Losing Sparta Thebes and Argos leaves me with nothing to continue and leaves India's army fully intact. It is far better (revenge) for Greece to hurt India as much as possible and get rid of the game.
India did offer peace because it is far better for them to get those cities with their Army intact than having to take them. After all if Jowy uses his units and dimishes the indian Army any city India take is at high risk to fall to the Ottomans.
#2) I guess not as he wants out.

I don't quite understand why Spullla would offer that and let Jowy keep Athens...?

Id be royaly pissed however they gained alot from the war (Athlete and whosit) imho. both have managed to get borders that need no attention in regards to war decs (Athlete > Jowy / Whosit > Nakor) and have had time to build up their empires with minimal outlay in regards to the actual war, although i think whosit should have just recalled his preads once the tide turned instead of gifting them to jowy, but thats differing styles for you.
in short, only Jowy looks like a MAJOR loser from the war, Nakor is so-so and whosit and athlete should be sitting pritty and quite pleased with the result. (well as happy as pos without destroying india ofc)
