The public has bet the UNDER down to 179.5 (-110) after it opened @ 185.5 (-115).

Pros

  • THE BLITZ projects the Jets to run the 6th-most total plays among all teams this week with 65.5 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
  • The New York Jets have run the 8th-most plays in football this year, totaling a whopping 62.2 plays per game.
  • Opposing quarterbacks have averaged 40.3 pass attempts per game vs. the Denver Broncos defense this year: 6th-most in the NFL.
  • The New York Jets offensive line has allowed their quarterback 2.69 seconds before the pass (5th-best in football since the start of last season), which has a strong effect on all pass game metrics across the board.
  • The Denver Broncos defensive front has gotten pressure on opposing quarterbacks 2.53 seconds after the snap (on average), grading out as the 6th-worst in football since the start of last season.
Cons

  • THE BLITZ projects the New York Jets as the least pass-centric team on the slate this week with a 52.9% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • The weatherman calls for 22-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means lower pass volume (and higher run volume) and decreased passing effectiveness.
  • THE BLITZ projects Zach Wilson to attempt 31.5 passes in this week’s game, on average: the least of all quarterbacks.
  • The New York Jets offensive line grades out as the 7th-worst in football this year in protecting the quarterback, which has a negative effect on all passing game metrics across the board.
  • Zach Wilson has been among the worst passers in football since the start of last season, averaging 181.0 yards per game while ranking in the 24th percentile.
