Coming into at this time’s sport towards the final place Patriots, using a 4 sport successful streak with a 5-2 file, the Jets had been trying like a legit playoff contender. Sadly, the house loss at this time put a damper on any playoff aspirations. With subsequent week’s sport towards the Payments adopted by a rematch towards the Patriots in Foxboro, issues might quickly look a complete lot totally different for the Jets if they’ll’t pull off a division win.

If the Jets had been absolutely wholesome they may even have a good shot at residence towards the Payments. The Payments #1 ranked offense revolves across the vertical passing sport. The power of the Jets protection, the cornerbacks and the go rush, dovetails properly with the Payments’ offense. That ought to in concept give the Jets a combating likelihood to maintain the Payments’ offense from going ballistic. However with out the mandatory playmakers and offensive line on offense, even a stellar efficiency by the protection will seemingly go for naught towards the NFL’s #1 ranked protection. On paper a wholesome Jets staff might need a shot. A banged up Jets staff towards the Payments’ juggernaut? Properly, any given Sunday and all, but it surely’s tough to see a sensible path to victory right here, absent a bunch of Payments turnovers.

In accordance with DraftKings Sportsbook the Jets open as 12.5-point residence underdogs towards the Payments on Sunday. Below totally different circumstances that may be downright disrespectful with the Jets at residence. Nevertheless, with Zach Wilson’s meltdown towards a lesser Patriots’ staff recent in bettors’ minds, a blowout Payments victory might be a sensible final result right here.

Can the Jets win this sport? Properly, sure, if every thing occurs to go completely. If the Jets play mistake free soccer, don’t get behind early, power some turnovers, get a few massive performs on offense, possibly make a play or two on particular groups, then yeah, it’s doable they get the win. Potential, however fairly unlikely. This one seems to be like an especially robust sport for the Jets to even preserve shut, not to mention win. I’m taking the Payments to win this sport.
