NFL O/U Game of the Week

New York Jets at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Under 37 points)

Mark Sanchez hasn't learned how to slide properly yet so he is sitting out this game with a banged up knee. This means Kellen Clemens is getting the start for the New York Jets this weekend in Tampa Bay. In watching Thursday's Night game, Clemens showed that he was not ready for action. Clemens will benefit from extra days of preparation, but I expect the Jets will be very conservative on offense against the Buccaneers. Regardless of who the starting QB was going to be, the Jets game plan coming into this matchup was probably a heavy dose of Thomas Jones and Shonn Green. After all, Tampa Bay has the league's 31st ranked rush defense. 
 
On the flipside, the Jets defense ranks 2nd in the league in yards allowed. Good luck to Josh Freeman who is trying to rebound off of a 5 interception game and to the rest of of the Bucs offense who are averaging 10 points per game in their last 3 games. Freeman will at some point have to throw the ball in Darrelle Revis's direction as Revis will be blanketing Antonio Bryant, the Bucs only legitimate wide receiver. Seriously, where is the scoring in this game going to come from? The Bucs don't even have standout special teamer Clifton Smith anymore. I see a whole bunch of field goals in this game.
