vs.

New York Jets at Denver Broncos 4:05 PM CBS – The Jets defense did a get job shutting the Vikes out in the first half, but faded in the second allowing Minnesota to make a fourth quarter comeback scoring 13-points, but still hung on for the win.

There wasn’t whole lot of offense as kicker Nick Folk led New York with 15 points off five field goals including a 53-yarder in the second quarter.

Veteran RB LaDainian Tomlinson had 20 carries for 94 yards while QB Mark Sanchez tallied only 191 yards on 21 completions. Tomlinson has been the key ingredient to the New York running game with 56 attempts and three touchdowns. He has 341 yards and averages just over six yards a carry. Shonn Greene is the change of pace back with 52 attempts for 223 yards, and finally found the end zone recording his first TD of the season on Monday night.

On the defensive side of the football, the team has had trouble with defending against the pass as they rank 23rd in passing yards with 233. Not good as they will now be challenged by Denver QB Kyle Orton who ranks second in the league with 1,733 passing yards.

Orton threw for 314 yards, surpassing the 300-yard mark for the fourth straight game, and two touchdowns last week, as the Broncos were spanked by the Ravens, 31-17.

Denver rushers Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter have combined for just three touchdowns and 173 yards, so to say the running attack is little flaccid, maybe be the understatement of the year.

If Orton doesn’t get the support needed on the ground and from the Broncos defense, the losses will being to pile up, staring in East Rutherford on Sunday.

The odds makers have the New York Jets as a -3 point favorite with an over/under of 41.5.
