New York has a young team with plenty of prove, while Philadelphia is the defending champs more focused on staying healthy. The Jets have outscored their opponents this preseason by +9 points, while the winless Eagles have shown nothing while getting outscored by -39. The New York defense is allowing 12.3 points per game, while the offense has upgraded the QB position with Sam Darnold, Josh McCown and Tedy Bridgewater battling it out. For Philadelphia, QB Carson Wentz still hasn't been cleared to play, so they can't risk Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles getting hurt this game. They've shown nothing this preseason, getting outscored by a 24-11 average. How much does Eagles coach Doug Pederson care about exhibition games? This week he said he would vote to cut preseason in half, preferring more joint practices. Last season in Week 4, the Eagles lost to the Jets, 16-10, averaging 3.2 yards per carry. The Jets led 13-3 at the half. New York coach Todd Bowles is 2-1 SU/ATS in Week 4 of preseason, so back the Jets again.
