NFL Thursday

DENVER (0-3) AT
N.Y. JETS (0-3)

TV: 5:20 p.m. PDT, NFL Network.
Line: Broncos by 1.
Over/under: 40.
Sam Farmer’s pick: Denver’s defense is decent against bad teams, and the Jets fill the bill — they are awful. Watch for Broncos to run a hurry-up offense with Brett Rypien and nickel and dime the Jets with short passes. Denver has surrendered 13 sacks in the last two weeks. BRONCOS 16, JETS 13
