As if the New York Jets weren’t polarizing enough with the likes of QB Aaron Rodgers, being in a massive media market and having several prime time games, they took over the headlines even more throughout this past week. More on that coming up, but overall, we’re here to get you set for their Monday Night Football game with the Buffalo Bills.

Beyond our best Bills vs. Jets predictions will also be a new $300 FanDuel Sportsbook sign up bonus, so be sure to check out everything below!

 

 

 

Bills vs. Jets Predictions for Monday Night Football, NFL Week 6

It’s safe to say that making Bills vs. Jets predictions for this week are as interesting as it’s ever been. They usually are given the nature of this AFC East rivalry, but some of the biggest news of the week have made it even more so.

Of course, nearly all fans know by now that New York fired former head coach Robert Saleh, and shortly thereafter, stripped offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett of his play-calling duties. It’s also not as though the Bills are without their scars, as they’ve been beaten the past two weeks.

Speaking of which, let’s get further into each team so that we can fully get into the best bet from our Bills vs. Jets picks.
 

 

 

Buffalo Bills: Bouncing Back From Back-To-Back Losses

As just stated above, the Bills are looking to avoid a three-game losing skid. That didn’t seem like something they would have to avoid all season given that they began the year on a three-game winning streak.

After looking like the most dominant team in the NFL, they were absolutely dominated themselves by the Baltimore Ravens, which was also in prime time on Sunday Night Football. That was followed up by a closer 23-20 loss to the Houston Texans, which has created the narrative that Buffalo struggles when facing other top competition. 
 

 

 

New York Jets: Wholesale Changes

Well, at least Bills fans can lean on the fact that they aren’t exactly playing top competition. However, could that change starting this week? Of the two changes we mentioned, we’re actually more interested in the latter.

Firing a head coach will always get the attention, but Hackett was hand-picked by Rodgers. So, no longer allowing him to call plays is a massive deal. So too is the fact that he’ll still be in the building and on the sideline, which may certainly create some drama, tension and awkwardness.

We’ve also got the latest Bills vs. Jets odds at FanDuel Sportsbook for you, and we’ve found what we consider to be massive value in the lines below:

 

 

 

Bills vs. Jets Predictions: Over 40.5 Points (-112 at FanDuel Sportsbook)

Ok, here we go. The focus of our Bills vs. Jets predictions is going against the grain from everything that you’ll likely see as trends, so let’s just clear the air right now. Unders in prime time games are great, the Jets have a 4-1 record for unders this year and the past five meetings between these teams have stayed under the total.

So, why are we taking the over? First and foremost, each of the totals in those five recent meetings were listed at 43.5 points or higher except for one. More importantly, this is a play on what we consider to be a massive over-adjustment.

Prior to all the news swirling around the Jets this week, this total opened at 47.5 points! An entire touchdown move is likely to be the biggest line movement we see all season, and why? Are we to believe that Hackett had New York’s offense firing on all cylinders? Not in our eyes, especially in today’s NFL - they all but refuse to motion pre-snap.

On top of all that, the Bills have loved either lighting up the scoreboard or allowing others to do so. After a 34-28 Week 1 win, they’ve also either scored or allowed the opposition to score 31+ in three of their other four games. 

Consider taking Buffalo’s team total as part of your Bills vs. Jets picks, but we’re comfortable making the best bet from our Bills vs. Jets predictions on the over 40.5 points (-112 at FanDuel Sportsbook).
