The New York Jets will travel North to take on the Buffalo Bills in a Sunday afternoon NFL matchup at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park. With that said, it’s a good time to check out our NFL odds series, which includes a Jets-Bills prediction and pick, laid out below.
New York has surprised the league with a 7-5 record, going 2-2 in their last four games. Head coach Robert Saleh has led an impressive turnaround in his second season at the helm. Not even a change at the quarterback position has slowed this team, which sits in third place in the AFC East.
Buffalo has gone 9-3 this season, first place in the AFC East, riding the momentum of a three-game winning streak. Sean McDermott has helped to create a sense of stability surrounding the franchise. Oh, and having a legitimate superstar at quarterback does not hurt.
