New York Jets vs. San Francisco 49ers Preview, Prediction & Odds | September 9, 2024

Aaron Rodgers, New York Jets

The 2024 NFL season offers a potentially great matchup in the Monday night game that pits the New York Jets vs. the San Francisco 49ers. The Jets need a good outing from QB Aaron Rodgers, who suffered a season-ending injury on the team’s first offensive series in the season’s first game a year ago. The 49ers, meanwhile, are angling for another Super Bowl bid after narrowly losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in a great NFL title game in February.

The Jets are almost certainly going to be better at the QB position with Rodgers returning for what might be his final NFL season. Retirement and the Pro Football Hall of Fame are in his near future, but he still has the desire to compete at the highest level. The Jets vs. 49ers game will help show if he and the rest of the team are ready. The Jets need to show up on the field and play much better on both sides of the ball to have any chance of staying competitive in the Jets vs. 49ers Monday night game. New York will have to do better than 2023’s averages of 5.6 yards per pass attempt, but 4.2 yards per rush is a bright spot.

San Francisco 49ers

San Francisco returns one of the league’s most potent offenses and one of its best defenses. San Francisco doesn’t have to convert a lot on third down because its balanced offense generates big plays and an average of 9.3 yards per pass attempt. The team has a great offensive line that enables 49ers’ running backs to average 4.8 yards per carry. That balance should help greatly in the Jets vs. 49ers matchup.

Prediction

The 49ers are a solid team with nothing to prove other than it is among the favorites to compete for the NFL title in the Super Bowl. The team is superior to the New York Jets in all facets of the game, possibly including at quarterback despite Rodgers returning for 2024. Add in the cross-country travel for the Jets and the home-field advantage for the Jets vs. 49ers, and this game has the makings of a blowout. There’s really no question about it in the Jets vs. 49ers on Monday night: Take San Francisco -6.5 over the Jets. The 49ers have a healthy young quarterback in Brock Purdy, an excellent defense, and big playmakers on both sides of the ball. Plus, the New York Jets have to travel across the country, which adds to the challenges the team already faces with Rodgers playing his first NFL game in a year and logging only one pass attempt last year.

Final Pick

San Francisco 49ers -6.5
