Zach Wilson QB vs. Josh Allen QB
Zach Wilson has had an up and down season. With only 59.8% completion rate and more interceptions (6) than touchdowns (5), Wilson has experienced his share of difficulties; yet his ability to extend plays using mobility keeps the Jets’ offense unpredictable and occasionally potent.
On the contrary, Josh Allen has been impressive for the Bills. His 71.3% completion rate, 2423 passing yards and 18 touchdowns to 9 interceptions ratio are all hallmarks of success as an efficient and effective leader on the field. Furthermore, Allen’s dual-threat capability – indicated by his yards per pass attempt (7.5) and passer rating (99.56) numbers – make him an unparalleled threat to any defense in which they face him.
NFL Odds/Point Spread: Buffalo Bills -280, Total Odds: 40.5

Meanwhile, 40.5 marks an expected low-scoring affair due to strong defensive play from both teams and recent UNDER trends for each one.
New York Jets Betting Trends

Buffalo Bills Betting Trends
Buffalo, despite their balanced team, haven’t fared too well against the spread, posting a subpar 0-6 record over their last six games (although 13-6 on their home turf has provided them with evidence of victory). Furthermore, five out of their last six matches featured under trends that suggested their games may have been more defensive or lower scoring than expected.
New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills 11/19/23 Betting Picks
Based on recent trends and performances, this game appears to favor the Bills due to their home field advantage at Highmark Stadium. While Wilson may show promise, his inconsistency makes them riskier picks. Allen should give them an edge in this matchup.
Prop bettors or over/under players should note the recent trend of total scores coming in under for both teams, particularly recent matches between Buffalo Bills and Toronto FC, which favor an under. Best betting websites also align with this analysis by favoring Buffalo over Toronto, though expecting an even game.
