Jets vs. Patriots Betting Prediction:
The Patriots have been bad against the number over the past year and a half. Since the start of last season, New England is 4-13 ATS after a loss, an NFL-worst 1-8-2 ATS as the home team, 5-12-2 ATS as an underdog, and 6-10-1 ATS in conference games. The Pats are in a bad spot, playing against a Jets team that desperately needs a win on Sunday.
New York is close to having a good record. The Jets lost 3 games by a total of 10 points before getting blown out by Pittsburgh on Sunday Night Football last weekend. They get to play a Pats team that is arguably the worst team in the NFL this weekend. The Patriots’ defense is 24th in opponent passing yards per game, 25th in opponent yards per pass attempt, 23rd in opponent average passer rating, and 25th in opponent average completion percentage. Jets QB Aaron Rodgers torched New England for 281 passing yards and 2 scores in Week 3 of this season. I can see him having another standout game again on Sunday. I’m laying the points with the Jets on the road in Foxborough.
