The New York Jets (0-6) host the Buffalo Bills (4-2) Sunday of Week 7 at MetLife Stadium for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Below, we give you five player/team prop bets to consider from the BetMGM game menu in Week 7.
5 New York Jets prop bet predictions for Week 7
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8:20 a.m. ET.
Jets QB Sam Darnold OVER 19.5 completions (-110)
Darnold is back in the lineup and his team is a double-digit underdog in Week 7. That means the Jets could be down early in this contest, forcing Darnold to throw the ball a ton. While his passing options are limited, look for the former USC star to complete more than 19.5 passes as the Jets will need him to play like a superstar in order to have a chance at stealing this game.
Jets QB Sam Darnold OVER 1.5 passing touchdowns (+180)
A better bet on Darnold might be for him to throw two or more touchdowns in this game. Buffalo doesn’t have quite the same defense as we are accustomed to seeing and the Bills have had some problems in their secondary. The good thing about this bet is there is some garbage-time potential here for Darnold and the Jets as this bet will keep you alive until the final seconds of the clock.

Jets RB Frank Gore UNDER 52.5 total yards (-115)
Unfortunately, it looks like time is running out on Gore as he has lost most of his explosion and he is now playing behind one of the worst offensive lines in all of football. If this game gets ugly early, the Jets could opt to see some of their younger running backs instead of Gore. It’s going to be quite the struggle for the veteran to approach 50 total yards in this contest.
QB Sam Darnold to be Jets first TD scorer (+2500)
If you are searching for a long-shot bet regarding the Jets, we have two for you to consider. The first being Darnold to score the Jets’ first touchdown of the game. Over the last few weeks, we have seen multiple quarterbacks around the NFL score the first touchdown of the game on quarterback sneaks, rollouts and option plays. Don’t be surprised if head coach Adam Gase gets creative with his quarterback down near the end zone.
Jets WR Breshad Perriman to score 2 or more touchdowns (+2500)
Another long-shot bet to consider involves the team’s de facto No. 1 receiver in Perriman. With Jamison Crowder out of this game, look for Perriman to see close to double-digit targets and don’t be shocked if he and Sam Darnold connect on multiple deep passes down the field. At 25-1 odds, it’s not impossible Perriman could reach the end zone twice. The former first-round pick is finally healthy and is locked into a big workload for this contest.
