First, I think there will be quite a few points tonight. The Jets seem to play their best on MNF. The 49er's have been moving the ball fairly well and the Jet's are starting to get the west coast offense. That being said here are my plays tonight.

For the 49er's to have any chance of winning this game, they are going to have to win it in the air. They don't have a successful running game yet. I doubt they can score with the run inside the red zone. Garcia has yet to throw 2 TD's in a game this year, but tonight will be his chance on national television.

This is one of those props that just jumped out at me. Vinny has yet to complete 18 passes in a game, but he seems to save his best for prime time. He has passed for 659 yds and 8 TD's the last two games on Monday night. He is still learning the west coast offense and is improving every game.

Without the ability to run the ball, the 49er's are going to have to throw the ball in order to win the game. The Jets throw several passes, but most of them are short and Vinny normally has around 200 yds passing. With Stokes and Owens the 49er's have the ability to throw the ball deep and get behind the Jets defense. Garcia struggled last week at home with the swirling wind. The wind shouldn't be a factor tonight.
Team to have the most passing yards
San Francisco 49ers -170
New York Jets +140
Martin only rushed for 79 yds against the Colts and that is understandable since they were behind most of the game. He rushed over 100 yds against a tough NE defense. The 49er's gave up 86 yds in their first game to Anderson and over 100 yds to Faulk. The Jets are going to use a balanced attack against the 49er's and as long as they don't fall behind by alot they will continue to run Martin.

Now am I contradicting myself or what. Yes I think the 49er's are having problems running the ball, BUT they have 3 decent rushers (Hearst, Barlow, and Garcia). No 1 player will rush for 100 yds on SF, but all 3 players could rush for around 40-50 yds. If you look at the numbers so far this year, the 49er's were outgained by 38 yds against the Falcons. They then outgained the Rams by 1 yd. The Jets were outgained by 16 against the Colts and only outgained the Pats by 4 yds. Looks to me that no 1 team has a dominating edge. The Jets are also having problems stopping the run this year with their defensive line. I'll take a chance on this one.

Total all the field goals made in each game of the 49er's and Jets you will come up with a whopping 14 field goals. That's alot of field goals in 4 games. I'll take a shot that both teams are going to have some problems scoring.
Will both teams make field goal of 30+ yards
Yes -105
No -125
This prop suprised me. I think the Jets will give the 49er's a heavy dose of Curtis Martin and that gives me a pretty good shot of someone scoring a TD other than Vinny throwing one.
The Jets 1st touchdown of the game will be
A Passing TD -165
Any Other TD +135
