Understanding the football handicapping stats for this game could be tricky and hard to prognosticate picks until having a close look to both defenses. This MNF match-up could hold a high-scoring. However the big odd relays in the not so good pass defense from New England.
Looking at the stats, Sanchez should put up the overall based on the Patriots last-ranked pass defense. They've allowed an average of 288.5 passing yards per game, which is 32nd in the league. Sanchez will be smart enough to take advantage of that with Santonio Holmes, and Braylon Edwards. Also, against an awful pass defense, perhaps Dustin Keller will have a good game.
Following more football handicapping picks, this game will have some advantages to be win over the ground, for the Jets this could be possible, nor for the Patriots. The way the Jets stop the run near the line of scrimmage and with the Patriots not having a legitimate rusher, the Patriots can't win on the ground.
The Jets will try to take advantage of the Patriots pass defense, and, this will give to Shonn Greene the chance to gain some yards on the ground. With him taking most of the carries over from LaDainian Tomlinson, this could be an opposite door for the not so good Patriots' defense.
This game probably won't be won on the ground, but if it those happen and the football handicapping stats come true, the Jets would be the winners for this MNF match-up.
