Tampa Bay @ St. Louis
The Rams come into the Thurday night game with the 21st ranked rushing defence. This bodes well for Doug Martin who's coming off a small workload, suffering from game flow. The Bucs have lost to the Rams in each of their games from the last three seasons, but this is a new team with a new QB who has a bright future. This contest will be decided on the ground between Martin and Todd Gurley, but the Bucs have the upperhand allowing just 94 yards per game.
PICK: Tampa Bay (+1.5)
NY Jets @ Dallas
The Jets have allowed a league-low 78.9 rushing yards per game. Knowing this, it would be hard to put any kind of stake in Matt Cassel and the Cowboys. Darren McFadden has actually been the lone bright spot for the struggling 'Boys. Chris Ivory is 86 yards away from the breaking the 1,000 yard milestone already, he'll be looking for a big night against the 18th ranked rush defence.
PICK: New York (-2.5)
