The NFL The Worldwide Collection returns this Sunday because the 2-2 Jets battle the 4-0 Vikings in London.
Minnesota is a 2.5-point favourite, with the overall hovering round 40.
The Vikings’ unbelievable 4-0 begin is basically because of the magic of defensive coordinator Brian Flores.
He creates confusion and chaos by lining up defenders on the line of scrimmage and both blitzing all or none — regardless that Minnesota finally ends up rating second amongst NFL defenses in blitz share (41 p.c).
The Jets are blitz-vulnerable and nonetheless lack a proper sort out in Morgan Moses.
His substitute, rookie Olu Fashanu, allowed 5 rushes in final week’s loss to Denver.
It was a loss through which they scored simply 9 factors as a result of quarterback Aaron Rodgers continues to battle beneath strain (52 p.c completion, zero large throws).
Whereas I fear concerning the Jets offense, they nonetheless personal a prime 10 protection in accordance with the EPA for punts and passing share.
They have been weaker stopping the run within the prime seven, however have one of the best common within the NFL in accordance with Professional Soccer Focus’ protection grades.
Sos Gardner wants to stop Sam Darnold from finishing too many passes to Justin Jefferson.
Betting on the NFL?
These groups have two of one of the best cease items within the league.
The Jets and Vikings are a mixed 5-2-1 towards the Below, and I count on extra of the identical between Minnesota’s prime seven and New York’s secondary.
THE GAME: Jets-Vikings beneath 40.5 (-110, FanDuel)
