Sitting pretty at the top spot in the NFC South standings, the Atlanta Falcons (5-6) will look to build on their lead when they travel to face the New York Jets (4-7) on Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium.
The Falcons got back in the win column last week by beating the New Orleans Saints 24-15, snapping a three-game losing streak. The Jets, meanwhile, couldn't miss quarterback Aaron Rodgers any more than they do now as they were dumped by the Miami Dolphins 34-13 on Friday.
A four-game losing run has turned the Jets' season from a once-promising 4-3 to 4-7, shifting attention from a potential playoff push to wondering how high they will pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Whether it's struggling Tim Boyle, Tim Siemian, Zach Wilson, or even Rodgers under center, their final six games will offer them plenty of answers heading into the offseason.

Jets and Falcons rosters & injury reports
New York Jets team news
In a major boost, the New York Jets could get offensive linemen Mekhi Becton, Duane Brown and Wes Schweitzer back in time to face Atlanta.
The Jets also announced on Wednesday that they have opened the 21-day window for star quarterback Aaron Rodgers to return to practice, who tore his Achilles during the regular-season opener.
While Tim Boyle didn't show much against the Dolphins this past week, he will be the starting quarterback again for the New York Jets in Week 13.
Allen Lazard's stint on the bench lasted only one week after the veteran wide receiver was deemed a healthy scratch against the Miami Dolphins on Black Friday. Jets' head coach Robert Saleh has stated his desire to re-insert Lazard into the lineup against the Falcons.
