Bengals give up the most yards per game
The Jets shouldn’t have trouble moving the ball against a Bengals defense that gives up a league-most 417.2 yards per game. Sam Darnold is rolling of late, having completed 65.2 percent of his passes for an average of 279.3 yards per game with nine total touchdowns during the Jets’ three-game winning streak. That type of production should continue against Cincinnati’s porous defense.
A methodical offensive approach featuring a bevy of runs, passes and big-play shots should keep the Bengals on their toes and allow the Jets to control the field and time of possession. Turnovers could prove the most costly, though the Bengals haven’t been good at taking away the ball, either.
