Jets vs. New Orleans
Play: New Orleans -7
For a number of different reasons I feel the Saints will continue to roll and that the overachieving Jets will finally be grounded this Sunday: A week after the Saints became the first NFL team since 2001 to score 40 points or more in the first two games of a season while the offense piled up 936 total yards, the defense and running game took center stage and worked hand-in-hand in helping New Orleans to a 27-7 victory over the Buffalo Bills last weekend. QB Trent Edwards was sacked four times and intercepted once, and the Saints were credited with 14 QB hurries. The Saints shut the Bills down on 11 of 12 possessions, forcing nine punts, an INT and turning the ball over on downs once. New Orleans had 222 rushing yards as Pierre Thomas went for 126 yards and two TD's. On the other side of the field: I went against the Jets last week and was disappointed, but believe that Rex Ryan's team is overachieving right now and that Mark Sanchez will have a difficult time in the Superdome. New York was pretty much shut down in its running game last week as Tennessee limited Thomas Jones to just 20 yards on 14 carries; I look for New Orleans to stack the box like the Titans did and turn the Jets into a predictable and one dimensional offense, which will in turn put more pressure and responsibility on Sanchez's shoulders. The Jets are just 1-5 ATS their last six vs. the Saints. New Orleans is 4-1 ATS its last five overall, and 5-1 ATS its last six at home. Not to be too cliche, but the Saints are hitting on all cylinders right now and have proven that they can win on the road, that they can win in a shoot-out or that they can stop teams almost completely on the defensive side of the ball. This line is too low and it's obviously somewhat deflated because of New York's record; when taking into account all of the above factors I believe the sharp money is on the Saints!

Dallas vs. Denver
Play: Denver
The Broncos are the surprise team in the NFL at this point of the season, having gone 3-0 SU and ATS despite a coaching and quarterback change. Denver has performed especially well as home dogs, especially taking 3 or more points, where they are 9-2 SU and 10-0-1 ATS since 1984. In addition, the Cowboys are 3-7 SU and 1-9 ATS as favorites off a SU and ATS win when facing an undefeated opponent. The clincher, though, is the fact that NFL home dogs or favorites of six or less points in Game Four that are 3-0 SU and ATS are 14-3 SU and 15-2 ATS, including 10-0 SU and ATS when playing off a win of nine or more points in their last game. With Dallas in off a Monday night home win, look for the Broncos to improve on those numbers here today.

Miami +1 over Buffalo
The Buffalo offensive line is injured, young and not that good. Miami should bring pressure all game rattling Edwards. T.O and Edwards have yet to find chemistry and something tells me T.O is about to blow his cool and become a distraction for yet another team. On offense the Dolphins took a huge blow losing Pennington, but Henne is a capable backup. The real key in this game will be can the Bills stop the Dolphins Wildcat Offense and how can they do it without Corner McKelvin done for the year and both starting safeties out of this game. Look for the Dolphins to have their way on offense while the Bills suck wind in a hot humid environment they are not used too. Take the Dolphins.
Jets +7.5 over Saints
This Jets team is too good on defense to be such a big dog. The Saints are off to a hot start but again this team has not played stiff competition and Brees might have a tough time today without his starting left guard and starting backup left guard in the lineup. This Jets 3-4 defense is different from what the Saints usually see in the NFC. The Jets have a big physical offense and can run the ball well which will keep the Saints offense off the field. New York also has a good return game with Washington and Leonard who might have field days on this quick turf. Take the Jets.
