Why the Bills can cover
Quarterback Josh Allen is a dynamic signal-caller who owns a rocket of an arm, but will use his legs to pick up yards as well. The two-time Pro Bowl selection is tied for fifth in the league in passing touchdowns (8) and is first in QBR (77.6).
Running back James Cook (questionable, foot/toe) has emerged as a critical weapon in the offense, but is inactive with a toe injury. Instead, the Bills will rely on Ray Davis, who has almost 100 yards rushing this season, and Ty Johnson, who is averaging over four yards per carry. See who to back at SportsLine.
Why the Jets can cover
The Jets are looking to get back into the win column and snap a two-game skid. The offense has struggled, but quarterback Aaron Rodgers is still a four-time MVP. Rodgers owns a quick release and can make any throw on the field. This season, he has completed 61% of his throws for 1,093 passing yards and seven passing touchdowns. Rodgers has thrown for at least 240 passing yards with two passing touchdowns in two of the last three games.
Receiver Garrett Wilson is a shifty pass-catcher with the athleticism to make defenders miss. The Ohio State product leads the team in receptions (33) and receiving yards (292) with two receiving scores. In his last outing, Wilson had 13 catches for 101 yards and one touchdown.
