The Jets are 7-2-2 ATS in their last 11 games in Week 7, however, are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Patriots are 25-10 ATS vs. a team with a losing record, however, are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall.
New England is the better team here and already defeated New York by a 25-6 margin, however, this is a lot of points to cover for a team that has generally played to the level of it’s competition and recently barley beat Houston. New York’s offense has a lot of question marks, however, the Pats have looked vulnerable as of late in their passing defense and as I just don’t see this Patriots offense piling on the points against a decent New York defense, I’m taking the Jets and the points in this one.
