One game this Thursday night, how will it go?
New York Jets (5-4) @ Denver (4-5)
The Jets were crushed by the Patriots on Sunday night, despite Mark Sanchez having a fairly decent game numbers wise - his two interceptions did put them in a tough spot though. The Jets usually strong rushing game has also taken a hit with LaDainian Tomlinson out for at least the next two weeks, and the team are looking a bit like a shadow of what they could be. Tim Tebow completed 2 of 8 passes on Sunday against Kansas City, yet managed to throw a touchdown pass and rush for one himself in the process. The Broncos win has simply papered over the cracks of a weak offensive unit, and a quarterback in Tebow, who just does not look like an NFL starter. This game pits two struggling offences against each other, with both teams' defence actually playing pretty well. I give the Jets the edge in a low scoring game that shows Tim Tebow up for what he is.
Prediction: New York Jets 16 Denver 12
