Top Week 17 NFL picks
After diving into every game on the Week 17 NFL schedule, the model is backing the Buffalo Bills (-9.5, 46.5) to beat the New York Jets, 32-18, in an AFC East matchup. The Bills have already clinched the division title and have dominated this series in recent years. Buffalo is 7-3 in its last 10 meetings against the Jets, which includes a 23-20 victory on the road on Oct. 14.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen was effective in that win over New York, completing 76% of his passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Allen also scored a rushing touchdown in that matchup, one of his 11 rushing scores on the season. Allen’s stellar play is a major reason why the Bills enter Sunday’s showdown averaging 31.3 points per game, which ranks second in the NFL.
The Jets, meanwhile, have lost five of their last six games and are 1-4 in their previous five games on the road. In addition, the Bills have won seven consecutive games at home and six straight against an opponent from the AFC. The model projects Allen will throw for 223 yards and two touchdowns, while Buffalo’s defense racks up 2.82 sacks on average. See the model’s other Week 17 NFL score predictions at SportsLine.
