The Atlanta Falcons and New York Jets don’t play often. When they do, the Falcons usually win. Atlanta has won three of four and five of seven from the Jets. They’ve never played a neutral-site game before, though, which could certainly impact the NFL betting on this game. The Jets and Falcons are clashing Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

They’ve each participated once previously in the NFL’s London Series, both in 2014. The Jets beat the Miami Dolphins 27-14. Atlanta fell 22-21 to the Detroit Lions.

Take a look at Jets vs Falcons odds, injury report, betting lines and more. For local Jets fans, New York sports betting is coming soon. Bookmark our PointsBet promo code New York page to see offers when they become available.

Jets vs Falcons Key Matchups

Zach Wilson’s Elusiveness vs Atlanta’s Defense: Jets rookie quarterback Wilson makes things happen via his improvisational skills. Sometimes they’re good things; sometimes, not so much. The mobility of Washington QB Taylor Heinicke gave the Falcons all sorts of fits last week. Atlanta shows 16.4% QB pressures on defensive plays this season, fifth-lowest in the NFL.

Jets Inability To Score vs Falcons Inability to Prevent Scores: It’s the old story of the movable object against the lackadaisical force. The Jets scored more points last week (27) than in the first three games combined (20). Atlanta has allowed more points than any NFL team (128). In these scenarios, defense always seems a step ahead of offense.

Matt Ryan vs Jets Pass Defense: The Jets have allowed just two TD passes all season long. They’re the No. 12 pass defense (226.3 yards per game). Can they handle Falcons veteran QB Matt Ryan?

5 Key Jets vs Falcons Stats

7: Times the Jets defense sacked Tennessee’s Ryan Tannehill last week. Atlanta’s Ryan is an old-school drop-back passer. He might be in trouble.

3: Touchdown receptions last week by Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson. He joined current teammate Calvin Ridley as the only Atlanta players with three TD catches in a game over the past 15 seasons.

8: Interceptions thrown by Jets QB Wilson, the most in the NFL. It’s also tied for the most by a Jets rookie QB through his first four starts (Geno Smith, 2013). Atlanta is one of two NFL teams without a pick this season.

32: Rank for the Falcons in NFL scoring defense (32.0 points per game). Also, rank for the Jets in NFL scoring offense (11.8 ppg) By the way, 32 is last.

6: 100-yard receiving games recorded by Jets wide receiver Corey Davis since the start of the 2020 season. He had two during his first three NFL seasons.

Jets vs Falcons Weather Forecast

In England, the weather is a lot like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates – you never know what you are going to get. The forecast for Sunday’s game is calling for sunny skies with cloudy periods, 13 mph wind and a game-time temperature of 52 degrees. But, much like the TV listings, that is always subject to change.

Falcons RB Cordarrelle Patterson over 37.5 receiving yards (-115 at PointsBet: Patterson caught three TD passes last week. He’s gone well over this total three weeks running.


Jets vs Falcons Moneyline

Neither of these teams is generally a good moneyline play when making NFL picks and, certainly, picking a favorite for this game had to present a real challenge to sportsbooks.

The Jets are 3-17 straight up over their last 20 games. The Falcons are 1-8 SU in their last nine games. New York is also 1-9 SU in their last 10 road games. Ryan is a steadying, veteran presence under center. Wilson is a wild card who’s making a transatlantic flight for this game. To the steady goes the race. Take Atlanta at on the moneyline at BetMGM.

Jets vs Falcons Totals

On the surface, when it comes time to wager at your favorite betting apps, the Over on the total appears to be a tasty play on this game. Atlanta, after all, suits up the NFL’s worst overall defense and, as noted previously, the worst scoring defense.

However, as was also already noted, the Jets are the NFL’s worst scoring offense, with a rookie QB at the helm. Combined, these two squads are 3-5 this season on the over/under. The total has moved from an opening of 44 points up to 46.5. Take the Under for this game at DraftKings.
