Jets player to watch

WR Garrett Wilson. The third-year receiver is coming off a game in which he had two one-handed touchdown catches, including one of the most jaw-dropping grabs in recent memory. But Wilson's season has been impressive all around as his rapport with Aaron Rodgers has solidified. The AFC's offensive player of the week leads the NFL with 60 catches and 94 targets, and his 663 yards receiving are third in the league. Arizona is in the bottom-third of pass defense, so Wilson could be in for another busy day.

Cardinals player to watch

RB James Conner. The 29-year-old Conner seems to get better with age. He's coming off his first 1,000-yard season and is well on his way to another with 664 yards rushing through nine games. Conner ran for 107 yards on 18 carries in his team's win over the Bears last week.

Key matchup

QB Kyler Murray vs. the Jets defense. Murray has been excellent through the season's first half, ranking No. 5 in quarterback ranking, sandwiched between Buffalo's Josh Allen and Kansas City's Patrick Mahomes. He'll go against a Jets defense that has been one of the best in the league, particularly against the pass.
