New England is a 7.5-point road favorite at MetLife Stadium at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. In the last six games between these two teams, the Patriots are 0-5-1 ATS.
The Patriots bounced back from their second loss of the season with a double-digit road win over the lowly San Francisco 49ers. Since Tom Brady’s return, New England is 5-1 SU and ATS with all five wins coming by double digits with an average margin of victory of 15.6 points per game.
New England has won eight of its last 10 games against the Jets despite having failed to cover the spread in each of its last six games against New York.
Last Sunday’s win marked another November victory for New England. The Patriots are 15-4 SU and 12-6-1 ATS in their last 19 games played in the month of November, per the OddsShark NFL Database.
Betting Line / Total: New England -7.5 / 47 Points
Trend: The Patriots are 0-5-1 ATS in their last six games against the Jets.
Trend: The Jets are 2-6 SU in their last eight games at home against teams with winning records.
In their final game before heading into last week’s bye, the New York Jets gave Bryce Petty his first career start under center. Petty was underwhelming in a 9-6 loss at home to the Rams, dropping New York’s record to 3-7 SU and 3-6-1 ATS on the season.
The Jets will turn back to Ryan Fitzpatrick this Sunday against New England. Fitzpatrick is tied for the league lead in interceptions with 13 and has the worst quarterback rating in the NFL at 67.6.
Sunday’s total is set at 47 points. The OVER is 11-2 in the last 13 games between the Patriots and the Jets.
The Jets are 2-5 SU and ATS in their last seven games coming off a bye week. An extra week to prepare and rest should theoretically help the Jets’ chances this week, but the talent gap is severe between one of the NFL’s best teams in New England and one of the league’s lowliest teams in New York.
