Patriots vs Jets biggest Week 2 spread

The Jets are 1-3 ATS against the Patriots in the last two seasons. The Jets have covered the spread in their last three games as double-digit underdogs.
Totals bettors have profited on this matchup in recent years as the past 7 meetings all played OVER the total. The Pats have not been great as a big home favorite, as they are just 6-16 ATS in 22 games.
