Key Details
New York Jets
The New York Jets are not a good team this season, and it has been shown throughout the season. New York’s offense has been putrid with Justin Fields regressing horribly for the team after a stint with the Steelers. The Jets’ offense has been putrid without Fields, with poor game-planning and offensive play from their players being in the bottom rank of the league. Tyrod Taylor and Brady Cook haven’t been that much better.
There is also the Jets defense, which has been awful with no takeaways this season so far, and is ranked at the bottom of the league. While the Jets could upset the Saints, they are playing a rookie quarterback who has not seen a lot of action this season.
New Orleans
This season, the New Orleans Saints have been having a poor season, with the aging roster getting worse, along with poor quarterback play. The New Orleans Saints’ offense has been playing poorly, scoring around 16 points a game, and having poor offensive game planning from the coaching staff.
There is also the Saints‘ defense getting older, with the core being an old and injury-prone roster. While the defense still has solid names on the linebacker core, they have been struggling, and it could be an ugly game against the Jets on Sunday.
Prediction
The New York Jets and New Orleans Saints are not strong teams, with both having poor records and flaws within their teams. While the Jets have a younger roster, their quarterback play has been terrible and shows that anyone could beat them, even with an aging roster in the Saints.
While the Saints are not a good team, they could easily beat the Jets, but not cover, due to potentially having a poor game from both sides of the ball. The game could also be under the score, due to how both teams could play poorly, even in a dome.
