Buccaneers vs Jets Prediction

The Jets haven’t been able to finish drives offensively, they’ve been limited in the passing game, and it looks like their defense has taken a step back. The Jets are not only losing games left and right, but they’re 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog. The Bucs have had a short week to prepare for this game, but they’ve put together two wins on the road and come home feeling good.

The Buccaneers are top-10 in rushing offense and rushing defense, and it’s only a matter of time before the air attack gets going. The Buccaneers are a good football team that will be worth keeping an eye on this season. We’re laying just under a full touchdown, and I’m going to lay it. The Jets haven’t shown much through 2 home games, and I doubt things change on the road. Give me the Bucs by a touchdown or two.
