A 1,883-yard passing game and no run game at all

Las Vegas throw for more than every team but the Rams and run for less than every team but Green Bay.

Their defence is what loses games: 25 touchdowns conceded and 78.6% of red-zone trips finished against them.

The Jets are tidier through the air, but 58 penalties and a 45.0% red-zone rate keep undoing it.

Players to watch

  • Kirk Cousins (LV, QB): 1,877 passing yards and 16 touchdowns in seven games.
  • Brock Bowers (LV, TE): The first read in a passing game worth 1,883 yards.
  • Geno Smith (NYJ, QB): Ten touchdown passes to two interceptions at 105.2.
  • Garrett Wilson (NYJ, WR): A primary target in an attack rating 105.2.
