The Bills trailed at halftime against 14-point underdog New England at home last week before pulling out a 24-21 victory. Buffalo hopes to get its offense back in gear when the Jets come to town.

New York has lost five of six and will own a high draft pick in April. However, quarterback Aaron Rodgers has elevated his game of late with five touchdown passes and no interceptions in the past three contests.

The Bills have not lost in seven home games and won nine of the last 10 overall, including a strong road victory against Super Bowl betting favorite Detroit just two weeks ago.

The only question you must ask before making your bets at the BetUS Sportsbook is how motivated Buffalo is to put up a big effort with nothing to play for other than pride?

Top 3 Jets vs Bills Betting Tips December 29

1. Bet Buffalo Makes Big Statement

The Bills need one win or a Baltimore loss to clinch the second seed in the AFC playoffs, but they cannot be pleased with how they played last week.

There seemed to be something missing with the normally potent Buffalo offense. The Bills were out-ained by the 3-12 Patriots and had a whopping 13 penalties

Quarterback Josh Allen is the front-runner in the odds to win the NFL MVP with 26 touchdown passes and his 11 rushing scores are behind only Philadelphia’s Jalen Hurts (14) among quarterbacks. Allen has a variety of receivers, led by Khalil Shakir (73 catches, 796 yards).

James Cook is also a major factor for the Bills and needs 72 to reach 1,000 yards for the second straight season. Cook is tied with Hurts for the league lead with 14 TDs on the ground.


There is little to play for, but we expect Buffalo to put out an effort to cash this online bet.

Bet the Bills -9 ½ points (-110).

 

2. Why to Bet Against the Jets. … Again?

The Jets have performed better in their last two games on the road, taking Miami to overtime before losing and winning 32-25 at Jacksonville two weeks ago as a road favorite.

New York was not good in last week’s 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams at home. Per Jets vs Bills stats, veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers has looked a bit more like himself the past three weeks with five TD passes and no interceptions.

The Jets are second to last in the NFL in rushing yards per game, but they have two of the top receivers in the league. Garrett Wilson leads the way with 90 catches and 987 yards while Davante Adams has 56 and 719 in nine games after getting acquired by New York.


Can the Jets make some big plays? That’s the only fear for your ATS bets on the Bills. But we think New York won’t be able to play with Buffalo for four quarters.

3. Bet The Over, But Watch The Weather

You always have to check the weather reports in Buffalo this time of year before making NFL picks and over/under bets.

However, the long-range forecast calls for 50-degree highs with some rain on Sunday, so that should be fine for some scoring.

Allen has been hampered by elbow and arm injuries, so it’s not out of the question he sits this game out. Check late NFL news before placing a bet, but we expect the talented signal caller will want to rebound after managing only 154 yards passing last week.

The Jets could not finish drives last week despite out-gaining the Rams by almost 80 yards. Expect them to show a little pride against their rival Sunday.

Bet over 47 points (-110)
