Jets vs. Stars Prediction
I’m on Dallas here. I think we’re reaching the jump-off point with the Jets, who were automatic early on this season but have really started to cool down. The Jets play well on the road, but the Stars have been even better at home and I think that Dallas gets the job done at home in this one. Give me the Stars.
