The New York Jets host AFC East rival Buffalo in NFL Week 10 as a big time -7.5 favorite. NYJ hopes to grab another victory while the Bills hope that they get decent play from the quarterback position. Which team takes it in what should be an entertaining AFC throw down on Sunday?
The Jets are 3-6 both straight up and against the spread, but they’ve gone 2-2 against the spread at home. NYJ counters any defensive flaws in this matchup because they battle one of the worst, most horrible, offenses in NFL history.
Although Buffalo’s defense is good, Jets quarterback Sam Darnold has excelled in 2-of-4 home games. He played to a 98.1 quarterback rating in a win over the Denver Broncos in Week 5. In Week 6, he played to a 113.9 quarterback rating in a win over the Indianapolis Colts.
If the good Darnold shows up, the Jets should beat the Bills by at least 14 points.
