Indianapolis Colts vs New York Jets
Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Indianapolis Colts vs New York Jets is an all-AFC matchup with seeding on the line. Our model leans Indianapolis Colts's way (62% to 38%, IND -1.5), but New York Jets are live enough to make it interesting.
Tactically, Indianapolis Colts will want to lean on stout interior to attack New York Jets, whose offensive line is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, New York Jets's aggressive defense could punish Indianapolis Colts if secondary goes unaddressed. It is the kind of trade-off decided in the margins: third down, the trenches, and the turnover battle.
Keep an eye on Michael Pittman Jr. (WR) and Garrett Wilson (WR): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. Colts get the home crowd, worth a few points of swing before kickoff.
