New York's retooled defense has played very well. They are a hard-hitting unit that swarms to the ball. The Jets are #12 in points allowed, #10 in pass defense, and ninth in total 'D.' They're also third in the NFL in third-down defense. That defense isn't getting any respect as a double-digit underdog against a Denver squad that is 10-22 ATS after allowing 200 or fewer total yards in their last game. The Broncos won their first two games on the road, an impressive feat, although it was against a pair of bad teams (the Giants and the Jaguars). The Broncos are banged up with injuries. They are without two starters in WR Jerry Jeudy and CB Ronald Darby, and probably five, including LBs Bradley Chubb (ankle) and LB Josey Jewell, who are hurting after exiting in Week 2. Also, Denver is 10-22 ATS at home after gaining 375+ total yards in two straight games. Play New York.
