Cincinnati Bengals at New York Jets - 9/25/22 NFL Picks and Prediction
The Cincinnati Bengals will travel to play the New York Jets in Week 3 of the NFL regular season on Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The Cincinnati Bengals are 0-2 this season after they lost to Dallas by a score of 20-17 in Week 2. Cincinnati started the game very poorly and was not able to stop Cooper Rush and the Cowboys offense on the last drive of the game. The Cincinnati offense is averaging 18.5 points per game with 232 passing yards per game and 111 rushing yards per game. Joe Burrow has thrown for 537 yards, three touchdowns, and four interceptions for the Bengals this season. Joe Mixon has rushed for 139 yards, while Ja’Marr Chase has caught 15 passes for 183 yards and one touchdown for Cincinnati. The Cincinnati defense is giving up 21.5 points per game and 302 yards per game.
The New York Jets are 1-1 this season after they defeated the Cleveland Browns by a score of 31-30 in their last game. New York was able to score two touchdowns in the final 1:22 of the fourth quarter for the come from behind win. The New York offense is averaging 20 points per game with 303 passing yards per game and 88 rushing yards per game. Joe Flacco has thrown for 616 yards, five touchdowns, and one interception for the Jets this season. Michael Carter has rushed for 83 yards, while Corey Davis (questionable) has caught eight passes for 160 yards and one score. The New York defense is allowing 27 points per game and 339.5 yards per game.
Cincinnati is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games against the AFC and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. The under is 7-0 in Cincinnati’s last 7 games. New York is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 Week three games. The under is 5-1 in New York’s last 6 September games. The over is 5-2 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings.
Cincinnati has not looked good in their first two games and will be looking to bounce back in this game. New York is coming off of a miraculous win in Cleveland, but their defense did not look good in the game. The Bengals can definitely play better, but I think the Jets will be able to move the ball on this Cincinnati defense. I like the Jets with the points at home.
