Key Factors

Favors Over

The Jets are a 3-point underdog this week, likely leading to a passing game script.

THE BLITZ projects the Jets to call the 3rd-most plays on offense on the slate this week with 66.1 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
THE BLITZ projects Michael Carter to earn 4.5 targets this week, on average, ranking in the 89th percentile among running backs.
Michael Carter has been heavily involved in his team's passing offense, posting a Target Share of 10.9% this year, which ranks him in the 84th percentile among RBs.

Favors Under

The New York Jets O-line profiles as the 5th-worst in the NFL this year in pass protection, which has a negative effect on all passing game statistics across the board.
The Buffalo Bills pass defense has exhibited good efficiency versus running backs this year, conceding 4.81 yards-per-target to the position: the 6th-least in the league.
The Buffalo Bills pass defense has performed very well when opposing running backs have gotten into space, surrendering an average of 5.59 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 2nd-least in the NFL.
The Buffalo Bills linebackers rank as the best LB corps in the league this year in covering pass-catchers.
The New York Jets have been faced with a stacked the box on just 13.6% of their plays since the start of last season, 9th-least in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
