Last year Bill Belichick turned in one of the best coaching jobs of his career. Belichick worked with rookie QB Mac Jones to gain the playoffs. New England became a team to watch for the future. Despite a slow start early in the season, the Patriots are back on track. New England was helped by the return of Jones, who missed time with an injury. Since Jones returned, the Pats have beaten the NFL betting odds twice in a row. This week brings a dangerous matchup against the upstart New York Jets.

Jets at Patriots SBG Odds Overview
Neither team figures to get an overload of sportsbook support in this matchup. New York and New England are in the black for 2022 and showing good value. Squares will lean on the Patriots as the name-brand home favorite. Wise Guys will prefer the Jets as the quality road dog.
New York Jets Team Overview
Last game, the New York Jets won 20-17 against the Buffalo Bills as 11-point home dogs. The game went under the total of 46. New York has a record of 6-3 straight up, 6-3 against the spread, and 3-6 over/under the total.
At the onset, it seemed like a tall order for the Jets to beat the Bills. Especially after a disappointing loss to the Patriots. But the Jets put together a stunning 60-minute performance and ended the Bills’ four-game win streak.
New York QB Zach Wilson put together an economical, accurate 18-for-25 passing day for 154 yards. And a short TD toss to RB James Robinson late in the third quarter to take their first lead of the game at 17-14. Also, Greg Zuerlein’s 28-yard field goal was the go-ahead score. And then Sauce Gardner supplied the icing on the cake.
New York amassed an impressive 174 rushing yards. Namely, Michael Carter led the way with 76 yards on 12 carries. Rookie WR Garrett Wilson had eight catches for 92 yards.
New England Patriots Team Overview
Last game, the New England Patriots won 26-6 against the Indianapolis Colts as 5-point home favorites. The game went under the total of 39.5. New England has a record of 5-4 straight up, 5-3-1 against the spread, and 4-5 over/under the total. In sum, Mac Jones completed 20-of-30 passes for 147 yards and one touchdown against the Colts. A chipped screen to tight end Jonnu Smith gained 24 yards and set up one of four converted field goals by kicker Nick Folk. No interceptions was an important step forward.
Previously, Jones had thrown a pick in each of his five appearances this campaign. Now that streak is in the rearview. Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson scored the lone offensive touchdown on a three-yard pass from Jones. Stevenson picked up 42 of his 60 rushing yards after contact on 15 carries. Also, he forced three missed tackles on the ground. He caught three passes for 10 yards, and seven of those came after contact.
