This will be start No. 3 for Aidan O'Connell, a fourth-round pick out of Purdue who's given the Raiders superior quarterback play compared to veterans Jimmy Garoppolo and Brian Hoyer by simply not turning the ball over as much.

  • O'Connell: 64.9 CMP%, 6.8 YPA, 2.6% INT
  • Garoppolo/Hoyer: 63.3 CMP%, 6.8 YPA, 5.2% INT

O'Connell's main issue in his first start was that he held the ball too long, taking a whopping seven sacks while averaging 2.74 seconds to throw. On 38 dropbacks since, he has not taken a single sack and has gotten the ball out in 2.17 seconds on average — the fastest in the league over that span (min. 10 dropbacks).  The quick game will be key against a Jets defense that ranks fourth in pressure rate (35.0%), especially with elite left tackle Kolton Miller doubtful to play due to a shoulder injury.

O'Connell has also been a boon for Josh Jacobs, which is another key against the Jets, who rank fourth in DVOA against the pass and 21st versus the run.

  • Jacobs in O'Connell starts: 25.5 touches, 118.5 scrimmage yards, 4.65 yards per touch, 1.5 TDs
  • Jacobs in Garoppolo/Hoyer starts: 19.4 touches, 73.0 scrimmage yards, 3.76 yards per touch, 0.29 TDs

Unlike Zach Wilson, who is saddled with a who's who of washed former Packers receivers — Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb, Malik Taylor — and the ghost of Dalvin Cook, O'Connell's supporting cast sets him up for success.

Davante Adams is one of the few receivers who can win against Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed on the outside. Jakobi Meyers has taken advantage of the attention Adams draws to become a TD machine. New offensive coordinator Bo Hardegree started working in deep threat Tre Tucker, slot maven Hunter Renfrow and first-round tight end Michael Mayer, giving O'Connell ample and effective options that don't involve targeting Gardner and Reed on the outside.

For the first time in a long time, the Raiders have a respectable pass defense, clocking in at 15th in DVOA.

Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham has seen his unit allow the second-fewest rate of explosive passing plays (8.5%), which forces opposing offenses to methodically drive down the field. That is not Wilson's forte, obviously: The Jet offense is last in plays per drive (5.1) and yards per drive (22.2), and 31st in points per drive (1.15).

The best hope for New York is Breece Hall exploiting a Raiders run defense ranked fourth-worst by DVOA, but that's easier said than done as the Jets' offensive line ranks 27th in Adjusted Line Yards (3.74) and 28th in PFF run-blocking grade (50.4).

Hall has failed to break a run longer than 10 yards since Week 5. Pierce has also vowed to turn the Raiders into a more hard-nosed team that takes pride in stopping the run — though Saquon Barkley averaged 5.6 yards per carry on 16 carries against them last week. The Raiders only allowed Barkley to break one run of 15 or more yards, however, which is a positive sign for their defense heading into this matchup.

As luck would have it, O'Connell's two starts this season have come against the Chargers and Giants, which also happen to be the Jets' two most recent opponents. Both teams lost to the Chargers and beat the Giants, but that is where the similarities end.

  • Points scored: LV 47, NYJ 20
  • Points allowed: LV 30, NYJ 37
  • Point differential: LV +17, NYJ -17
  • Sacks taken: LV 7, NYJ 12
  • Third-down conversion rate: LV 24.0%, NYJ 15.6%
  • Turnovers: LV 3, NYJ 5

Another concern for the Jets is that their numbers may be inflated due to essentially playing 75% of their games at home thus far. The Jets-Giants matchup was a Jets road game for counting purposes, but in reality, the Jets have only played two actual games outside of their home stadium.

Like most other bad quarterbacks, Wilson has seen a drop-off in performance on the road compared to at home in his career.

  • Wilson home: 58.9 CMP%, 6.5 YPA, 14 TD, 12 INT, 77.6 rating
  • Wilson road: 53.5 CMP%, 6.0 YPA, 6 TD, 11 INT, 64.7 rating

Jets vs. Raiders

Betting Picks & Predictions

In a year that's seen countless backup quarterbacks pitted against each other, the edge comes from understanding which quarterback to fade. When Zach Wilson is involved, the answer is almost always going to be Zach Wilson.

There's a pretty big cushion of spots where fading Wilson has been a profitable endeavor: According to our Bet Labs data, Wilson is 41% ATS any time he's been favored OR a dog under six, including 1-6-1 with a -4.56 average ATS margin in his last eight in that spot.

This rejuvenated Raiders team under Antonio Pierce is going to be tough for opponents to prepare for early on in his tenure due to the unpredictability that comes with a 180-degree shift in philosophy from Josh McDaniels. The vibes are also strong, as evidenced by the team openly smoking victory cigars in the locker room last week.

In addition to all of that, the Jets will also be traveling across the country on a short week, which does not bode well for them based on past history. Per Action Labs, East Coast teams traveling west on a short week are 7-17 (29%) ATS since 2004, failing to cover by 5.7 points per game.
