When game-by-game odds became available in May, New York was favored by a single point. Unsurprisingly, the market has already adjusted to the Bills’ 3-1 start and the Jets’ struggles, with Buffalo now priced as short road favorites.
Although Josh Allen is behind only Patrick Mahomes for NFL MVP odds, four-time league MVP Aaron Rodgers ranks below the league average in the EPA+CPOE composite. Rodgers is also dealing with a knee injury, which could hamper his efficiency against the Vikings in London. It’s safe to say that the Bills are exceeding the market’s expectations while the Jets are letting down bettors.
Conversely, both defenses have surrendered a top-10 rushing success rate. The final outcome could boil down to which team can best establish the run, rather than quarterback play.

According to the odds for NFL Week 5, Allen and Co. have a slightly stronger chance of winning than the Jets, which are stationed as short underdogs versus the Vikings. However, the Jets would quickly become favorites if they pull off the upset and Buffalo loses its second consecutive affair to the Texans.
Even if you have an inkling of what could ensue in Week 5, it’s wise to wait on betting the Bills at Jets opening odds until this week’s outcomes are finalized. Variables like injuries are unpredictable and can drastically shift the line.
For example, the Colts went from five-point dogs to 3.5-point road favorites in Week 2 after Jordan Love suffered a knee injury in the season opener. But the Packers covered every number and won outright.
