JETS/TEXANS Under 37.5 - Frankly, I am not sure where the points will come from in this game. Despite the improvement of QB David Carr, Houston is still managing just 17.2 points per game, with their season high being 24 vs. Jacksonville. While the Jets have had their problems, not cracking the Win column until last week, you can not really blame their defense, which is allowing only 16.0 points per game, with the most points they surrendered in a game being 23. Simply put, unless a Texan running back emerges and takes some pressure off of Carr, I do not expect them to move the ball much at all vs. this underrated Jets defense. As for the New York offense, their 30-point explosion vs. Buffalo came out of nowhere, as they averaged just 11.3 points per game entering last week, the lowest in the NFL. Keep in mind however that they were coming off of a bye week, giving them extra preparation time for a divisional rival that they are quite familiar with. That is not the case here, as they are playing with normal rest and facing Houston for the first time in franchise history. I expect a return to early-season form for the Jets offense here, and for this game to land safely Under even this modest total.

E.Michaels.........I agree with you on this one. There are alot of match-ups this week that look like they will play under the total also,
Wash-Buff.-39(Will Bills offense show up this week?mmmm.NO!
Phil-NYG-37.5(Both off. look pathetic)
Chi.-Sea.-42(How many points will Bears put up with A-Train out)
T.Bay-S.F.-39(T.Owens,has big mouth,lacks big play!)
Den.-Minn.-44(Burlien(sp.)enough said!)
G.B.-ST.L-49(G.Bay will give A.Green ball all day=keep Rams offense off field)
Of course these are just my opinions
Good luck today!
