Jets vs. Broncos Betting Preview | Week 6 2025

(Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook and subject to change)

New York Jets Spread vs. Broncos: +7.5 (-115) via DraftKings Sportsbook

Smart sports betting is about knowing which battles to choose. The Jets’ spread, or moneyline, doesn’t feel like a smart fight, again.

The Broncos are fresh off a road win against the previously unbeaten defending champs. Defensively, Denver is top-five in yards allowed (5th), points allowed (2nd), and sacks (1st). They should smother a Jets offense that doesn’t do much until garbage time.

If New York wants a chance in this game, taking advantage of Denver’s somewhat shaky ball security is the key. Unfortunately, as most Jets fans know, New York has zero takeaways in this young season. Unless that changes, a Broncos offense that’s strong on the ground and with pass protection won’t feel much pressure.

The bottom line is that the Jets are 1-3-0 ATS in their last four, and an amazing special teams play is the only reason the win column has representation. The Broncos are 2-0-1 ATS in their previous three, including two away games against division leaders.

Europe is New York’s greatest ally in this one. If the Jets start faster than the Broncos on neutral ground, it could prove to be a difference. However, that’s a tough ask for a team that isn’t showing enough to trust.

Jets vs. Broncos Total Pick: Under 44.0 (-115) via BetRivers

Despite New York’s recent infatuation with the over, the under feels right this week. These teams have met the previous four years, and only one of those matchups finished with more than 30 total points, let alone 40. Last season, the Broncos and Jets finished with a 10-9 final score.

Overall, Denver enters this game with six of their last seven games ending as winners for the under. Their defense has been discussed enough already for its excellence, particularly this season. However, the Broncos’ offense has a common trait with New York’s.

Both teams in this game are run-first offensively. Each side will try to sustain drives on the ground and churn the clock. Neither offense is explosive enough where the crooked numbers common in Jets games this season feel likely.

Roll back to the under on Sunday morning.

New York Jets Prop Bet of the Week: Justin Fields Over 35.5 Rushing Yards (-115) via Fanatics Sportsbook

Before last week, Justin Fields’ rushing over was an automatic win. He may have fallen short against Dallas, but he’ll bounce back on Sunday.

For better or worse, Denver’s ferocious pass rush will force and create situations that require Fields’ legs to get active. There are also designed runs in the playbook that can leverage the defensive line’s aggressiveness.

Last Sunday snapped Fields’ four-start streak with more than 45 rushing yards. Even after last week’s performance, Fields averages 51.0 rushing yards per game this season and 50.2 rushing yards per game in his career.

Getting to 36 rushing yards should be a piece of cake on Sunday, especially when the Jets need to move the ball. Fields’ legs should be trustworthy on Sunday.
