Jets vs Vikings Prediction & Picks for NFL Week 13: SKOL Down

The New York Jets travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings in a cross-conference battle on Sunday.

The Jets made headlines last week by benching starting QB Zach Wilson after his remarks after the loss to the Patriots.

His lack of responsibility for the poor offensive performance rubbed many in the locker room the wrong way and made the decision clear.

HC Robert Saleh came out and made Mike White the starter for the game against the Bears and it paid off in a big way.

The Jets exploded for 31 points, their most since week 4 and the offense looked alive and well once again.

It will be the Mike White show moving forward and yea, last week against the Bears was an excellent performance, the Vikings pose a whole different challenge.

The Vikings flushed the embarrassing loss to the Cowboys from a couple weeks ago and got a win on Thanksgiving against the Patriots, 33-26.

The Vikings are 9-2 and will be going head to head down the stretch with the Eagles for the best record in the NFC.

In a battle of 2 teams with the playoffs firmly in their sights, who will come out on top?

Prediction

I think that Mike White has given this Jets team a lift but I don’t think it will matter this Sunday.

The Vikings are the better team and I like them to get the job done, at home, and continue their march towards challenging for the number 1 seed in the NFC.

Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson will be too much to handle here and give the Vikings enough big plays to run away with this one.

Best Bet

Vikings -3 (-106)
