The Jets are looking to keep their winning streak alive when the Oakland Raiders come to MetLife Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The weather conditions are not expected to be great in East Rutherford, as the forecast is calling for a cold and rainy day. That means both teams are going to have to adjust their gameplans accordingly.
If the forecast stays true to rain, then we’re going to see a lot of Le’Veon Bell running the football. He was slightly better last week against the Redskins, but not where he’d like to be at this point in the season. Assuming New York turns to a run-heavy attack, Week 12 will serve as another opportunity for the star tailback to get break out.
Defensively, the Jets have to stop Josh Jacobs on the ground and force Derek Carr to throw the football. Jacobs has been one of the league’s best rookies this year running behind a solid Raiders offensive line that has carried them to a 6-4 record. Luckily for New York, it has the No. 1 run defense in the league, which will make things tough for the young running back.
As for the Raiders, they’ve been quite the surprise this year. Oakland is right there in the playoff race can’t afford a letdown loss to the Jets. However, the Raiders have had their road struggles this year with only one road win on the season.
