Week 8 of the 2022 NFL season includes an AFC East showdown between the New England Patriots and New York Jets. After back-to-back wins, the Patriots were absolutely embarrassed on Monday in a 33-14 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Meanwhile, the Jets' 16-9 win over the Denver Broncos marked their fourth straight win of the season. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows for Robert Saleh's club, though, as rookie running back Breece Hall was forced to exit the game with a season-ending ACL injury.

Patriots vs Jets Prediction & Pick

The Patriots looked to be on the rise after their two one-sided wins before being upset by the Bears. New England's offense just couldn't get anything going, scoring 14 points in a 3:39 window in the second quarter, only to be held off the scoreboard for the rest of the game.

Now, the Patriots have a run-in with the Jets, who are tied for the 10th-best scoring defense in the league. Furthermore, New York has given up an NFL-low 12.0 points per game over its last three outings. It also helps that it surrenders the eighth-fewest total yards at home.

Though the Jets have won four straight, those wins came against struggling and short-handed teams. Bill Belichick is one of the best coaches in NFL history and knows how to get his team back on track. I'd be surprised if the Patriots looked as bad as they did in Week 7.

In a closer game than expected, I'll take the Patriots getting back on track.

Final Score Prediction: Patriots: 23 | Jets: 20

Patriots vs Jets Best Bet

The Patriots' domination of the Jets has been a constant in the NFL over the last decade. New England has won each of its last 12 games against New York, having not lost since December 2015. Even with the Jets looking better than they have in a long time, it's hard not to trust the Pats as far as this rivalry goes.

The Patriots have covered the spread in seven of their last 10 games against the Jets, which is a trend I expect to continue.

Bet: Patriots -1.5 (-110)
