When the 2019 NFL season officially begins this weekend, the New York Jets will get an immediate taste of divisional play. The Buffalo Bills will take the field at MetLife Stadium on Sunday and oddsmakers are not leaning in their favor.
Despite both teams making major revisions to their rosters this offseason, Gang Green has been deemed a 3-point favorite in this Week 1 AFC East matchup, per FanDuel.
The Jets are currently riding a money line of -170, are -110 in the spread and have received 61 percent of the public betting percentages.
While only receiving 39 percent of the same public wagers, the Bills receive a money line of +148, are 3-point underdogs and sit at a similar -110 in the spread.
The total over-under has been set at 40.5 points for Sunday’s game. Both teams are at -110 in the odds.
A few keys to consider: The Jets are 0-5 straight up in their last five games at home. However, the Bills are 2-4 against the spread in their last six meetings with New York. In their last nine road games with the Jets, Buffalo has hit the over in seven of those matchups.
