Last Season Records: N.Y. Jets 4-12-0; Buffalo 6-10-0;

What to Know

Buffalo and the Jets are opening their 2019 seasons against one another at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. Last year was nothing to brag about for Buffalo (6-10), so the squad is looking forward to a new start. Likewise, coming off of an uninspired 4-12 last-season record, the Jets have set their aspirations higher this year.

Two offensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: Buffalo ranked worst with respect to passing touchdowns last season, where the team accrued only 13. The Jets ranked fourth worst with respect to yards per game last season, where the team accrued only 299.2 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.

The neutral point spread forecasts a close one for these two. We'll see if the game is as close as the oddsmakers expect, or if one of these teams has a surprise blowout in them.
