The New Orleans Saints will look to extend their two-game winning streak as they host the New York Jets in Week 16 action.
Neither team has shown much offensively lately, which is why I’m taking the Under in my Jets vs. Saints predictions.

Jets vs Saints prediction
Jets vs Saints Best bet: Under 40.5 (-115)
Anyone who has watched the New York Jets or the New Orleans Saints this season knows that neither team has much offensive firepower. The Saints have struggled to score with either Spencer Rattler or Tyler Shough at quarterback and are now without dynamic running back Alvin Kamara.
Even though NOLA has won three of its last five, the Saints still haven’t scored more than 24 points in any of their last nine games and are averaging just 16.1 points per game this season. Even in victories, they rely on a defense that allows only 17.8 points per game to opponents.

The Jets will be lucky to reach that number. New York’s offense has actually been slightly better than New Orleans’ over the season, but even its 19.7 ppg average is misleading due to a couple of big performances earlier in the year. With Brady Cook at QB — who has thrown just one touchdown and five interceptions in his first two games — there’s little hope for an offensive explosion.
We’re looking at two offenses that struggle to put up points against anyone, while the Saints are playing excellent defense. That’s more than enough for me to target the Under on Sunday.
Jets vs Saints same-game parlay
Even without a high-scoring affair, the Saints should have enough to beat New York by a touchdown and cover the spread.

I’m also taking wide receiver Chris Olave to surpass his yardage total, as he’s eclipsed this week’s number in six of his last nine games.

Our big-ticket SGP: Olave Garden
We’re already betting on Olave’s yardage, so picking him to score feels like a natural extension of the SGP, especially since he’s found the end zone in three of his last five games.
