I kinda like this one with Patriots having one of the worst defenses in the league and all, worst in passing defense, allowing 288 passing yards/game. Mark Sanchez started the season a little slow, but safe, recording a maximum of 256 passing yards the first 6 games. His last 5 games though he has been improved in this department, and reaching 256, 336, 299, 315 and 166 passing yards (sure two of them with OT but still). Against Brady and Patriots I think he will reach at least 250. So I think we have a good line with over/under 227.5 passing yards.

What do you guys think about this one?

It really depends on the game situation. The Jets game plan tonight will be to run the ball and to eat the clock and I think that's why this prop line is looking so good for the over. If they are down biglike DMB40 said, they will be forced to throw the ball to get back in the game. If not, you can expect LT and Greene to be running more often than not.

Also, traditionally, Sanchez has not done very well in cold weather. Take a look at his stats from previous seasons in the cold.

Yeah, player props are poison. So many factors are involved...it's just best to stick to the traditionals for the most part.

I don't like this either. Sanchez has only thrown for more than 227.5 yards 5 of 11 games this year and zero times in his 3 games against the Pats. This will be a physical game, and the Jets know they will have to control the ball/clock to win. The only way to do that is to run, run, run the ball. Not to mention its gonna be real windy tonight making it tough to throw the ball.
