The D also came up flat in New England (45 allowed), though sandwiched in between was a solid effort in Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So what\u2019s happening?<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Defensive end Shaun Ellis said this week that the team has lapsed into a Patriots-like read-and-react defensive posture, abandoning the attacking style that earned it street cred earlier in the season. Maybe. What is certain is that the Jets have given up 14 offensive touchdowns and an average of 27.5 points in the past four games.  <!-- Affiliate Code Do NOT Modify--><a href=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_3953b_747\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_3953b_747\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Sports Betting at Sportsbook.com\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><!-- End affiliate Code--><\/p>\n<p>Part of the problem is the Jets\u2019 inability to stop big plays \u2013 in those four games the Jets have allowed 11 plays for 20 or more yards, and 18 plays for 15 yards or greater.  <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 While the Jets try to repair the business model in time for the start of the playoffs next week, they\u2019ll be doing so as they simultaneously work to get\/keep everyone healthy. How much playing time the regulars \u2013 including Sanchez &#8212; get against the Bills is anyone\u2019s guess. Even Rex Ryan, who will tell you even things you don\u2019t really care to know, professes that he\u2019s still grappling with the playing time issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Bills, meanwhile, will be trying to shake off the effects of that 7-turnover loss to New England last week. Even with that defeat, it\u2019s been a decent second half of the season for the Bills, who have been every bit as good as the Jets (4-3) since the midway point of the season. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n<strong>Betting\u00a0Trends<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Buffalo&#8217;s last 5 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 4 of Buffalo&#8217;s last 6 games on the road<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 6 of Buffalo&#8217;s last 9 games when playing on the road against NY Jets<br \/>\nBuffalo is 4-8 SU in their last 12 games when playing on the road against NY Jets<br \/>\nNY Jets are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games when playing Buffalo<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 11 of the NY Jets last 14 games<br \/>\nNY Jets are 10-4 SU in their last 14 games<br \/>\nNY Jets are 4-2 SU in their last 6 games at home<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong><em>The pick: <\/em><\/strong> Motivation is everything at this time of year, and the Jets don\u2019t have much beyond getting themselves primed for the playoffs. <\/p>\n<p>The Bills have had plenty of ups and downs on their way to a 4-11 year, but the team is playing hard and the coaching staff can make a solid argument that they have the franchise pointed in the right direction. <\/p>\n<p>Liking Buffalo to win this one, with an additional play on the over un less the number goes to 40.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Comment on this game below, hit us with your pregame NFL picks and predictions&#8230;<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Lawrence Paul is a regular contributor to the Cappers Picks Blog, and is a free-lance gambling and travel writer from Massachusetts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>NFL BETTING SEASON PROMO: Get a BIG Signup Bonus Today from The World&#8217;s Biggest Sportsbook &#8211; SPORTSBOOK.COM!
