Patrick Mahomes (vs. NYJ). Mahomes threw for 321 yards and three TDs at Denver, to break a mini-cold streak and this week he gets a much softer defense, at home. The Jets have allowed 14 TD passes this season and have only one pick (ahem, that's since the start of last season).

Positive signalProjection

Mahomes faces softer Jets defense after breaking cold streak; 14 TDs allowed.

Mahomes is ranked in the Top-10 this week and is in a smash spot. He threw for 321 yards and three TDs at Denver to break a mini-cold streak and this week faces a much softer defense at home. The Jets have allowed 14 TD passes this season and have only one pick since the start of last season. While Kenneth Walker might run wild, Mahomes should get his scoring opportunities.
