The New York Jets and New England Patriots face off on Sunday in an NFL showdown at Gillette Stadium. When these two teams faced off on October 30th it was the Patriots that secured the 22-17 victory.
The Jets come into this game with a 6-3 record and they have gone 6-3 against the spread. The Jets are coming off a bye week, but in the last game against the Buffalo Bills, they were able to secure a 20-17 victory. The defense was strong, and they picked off Josh Allen twice in that game. Quarterback Zach Wilson completed 18 of his 25 passes for 194 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. Michael Carter also rushed 12 times for 76 yards and a touchdown. The Jets are averaging 21.8 points while their defense is giving up 19.6 points per game. The defense is ranked 10th in the league. Wide receiver Corey Davis is dealing with a knee injury and is questionable for this game.
On the other side of this matchup is the Patriots who sit with a 5-4 record and they have gone 5-3-1 against the spread. The Patriots are also coming off a bye week, but in their last game, they were able to beat the Patriots 26-3. Mac Jones had a solid game finishing with 20 of his 30 passes for 147 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. The defense was the real strength in that game though. The Patriots are averaging 22.6 points while their defense is giving up 18.5 points per game. Jones has thrown 1140 yards, four touchdowns, and seven interceptions.
The Jets are 4-0 in their last four road games. The Patriots are 5-1-1 against the spread in their last seven games in Week 11. The under is 6-0 in the Patriots last six games in Week 11. The under is 4-0 in the Jets last four games.
The last time these two teams faced off the game ended ender 40 points, and points are going to be hard to come by in this game. Wilson and Jones have both been inconsistent this season, and I expect both quarterbacks to really struggle to move the ball in this game. This game will be a 17-13 type of game, and the under will cash.
