Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Jeremiyah Love (Cardinals) vs Jarvis Brownlee Jr. (Jets) - winner: Jarvis Brownlee Jr., holding him to 1.5 yds a carry - running into a wall.
  • Breece Hall (Jets) vs Jack Gibbens (Cardinals) - winner: Breece Hall, 4.8 yds a carry - running downhill all day.
In the Trenches
  • The Jets get stonewalled often up front, winning only 51% of reps (3.9 sacks a game), Kingsley Enagbare (0.8 sacks, 6.3 pressures a game) leading the way.
  • Pressure could be scarce for the Cardinals — a 49% win rate, 5.6 sacks and 22.3 pressures a game, and Josh Sweat (3.0 sacks, 7.0 pressures a game) headlines it.
Through the Air
  • Garrett Wilson should find soft spots all day, open 57% of the time for 56 yds a game.
  • Michael Wilson headlines the Cardinals' receiving corps — 10.3 catches for 78 yds a game on 51% separation.
  • On the back end, Azareye'h Thomas (Jets) blankets his man, surrendering separation on just 44% of routes — and 0.5 picks a game.
On the Ground
  • Breece Hall sets the tempo for the Jets — 69 yds a game on the ground at 4.8 a carry, finding room off the right edge and moving the chains.
  • On the ground, the Cardinals ride Jeremiyah Love: 8 carries, 13 yds a game (1.5 a carry) against a stingy front.
