(7-8) and New York Jets (-2) (7-8) both started the 2022 NFL season at 6-3 and among the league’s biggest surprise stories. They’ve since faltered and find themselves on the cusp of postseason elimination in the penultimate week of the regular season. As the calendar flips to 2023, a win is essentially the only option for either side.
Seattle has dropped three straight, including a pair of brutal games against Super Bowl contenders in the San Francisco 49ers (-6)
and Kansas City Chiefs (-13.5). A previously high-scoring offense is struggling for points, which is not good considering the defense’s struggles and the strength of this Jets team is defense.
