Jets ML (+118) at Caesars Sportsbook

The Jets had a busy week, firing head coach Robert Saleh and demoting embattled offensive coordinator Nathanial Hackett just days ago. Those changes are going to spark this talented team, especially with the popular Jeff Ulbrich now at the helm. The vibe has been bad in New York over the last two seasons, but Monday night will change that. 

The Jets will benefit from a brutal Bills injury report. On offense, top receiver Khalil Shakir still isn’t practicing, while top running back James Cook is questionable with a toe injury. The Buffalo defense is getting healthier but is still without two critical pieces in Matt Milano and Von Miller. 

Buffalo's injuries have led to losses the last two weeks, and they will do so again on Monday.

Josh Allen Anytime TD (+122) at Caesars Sportsbook

James Cook has a toe injury that keeps him out of practice this week. That is a tough injury for a running back and will undoubtedly hamper him if he does suit up on Monday. With the team lacking depth in the backfield, expect Josh Allen to get some key carries. Allen has found the end zone twice this season and had 15 on the ground last year. 

The Jets' defense has had mixed results against the run this season, ranking toward the middle of the league in rushing yards allowed. While they found success against the Vikings last week, that was primarily due to Aaron Jones exiting with an injury. Allen remains a talented runner that can find room to work against New York.

Garrett Wilson Over 60.5 Receiving Yards (-117) at Caesars Sportsbook

After a frustrating start to the season, Wilson went for 101 yards on 13 catches against a great Vikings defense. While he could not break out for big plays, he found ways to get open, helping Rodgers avoid the dominating Minnesota blitz. He gained a lot of trust with Rodgers in the game, leading to him taking the role of top receiver back from Allen Lazard.

Wilson is the best weapon the Jets’ have on offense, but his low production had fans and experts questioning the New York offense. With a new head coach and offensive coordinator looking for a statement win, you can bet they will have the receiver at the center of their game plan.

Wilson is a big play receiver and will show that on Monday Night Football.
