The New York Jets take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in a pivotal AFC matchup this Sunday. The Jets, struggling with a 2-4 record, are looking to turn their season around as veteran QB Aaron Rodgers returns to the field, reuniting with star receiver DeVante Adams after a three-game absence. Meanwhile, the Steelers are cruising at 4-2, aiming to solidify their position in the AFC North despite some offensive inconsistencies.
Jets Overview
The Jets are sitting at 2-4, struggling to light up the scoreboard with an average of just 19 points per game. But hold up—QB Aaron Rodgers is dialing back in, reuniting with his star receiver DeVante Adams after a three-game absence. Adams is back 100% and ready to wreck some defenses tonight. With Rodgers connecting with Adams, we might just see the Jets’ offense find some much-needed spark.
Steelers Breakdown
The Steelers are cruising at 4-2, looking solid in the AFC North. Their offense has been a bit of a mixed bag—28th ranked in passing, barely hitting 150 yards in four games. Sure, their run game is decent, 9th in rush yards thanks to Justin Fields, but without a reliable pass, they’re kind of one-dimensional. Plus, Pittsburgh’s offensive line is a mess right now—starting a third-string center, a rookie right guard, and a second-year right tackle. Protection? Not so much.

Key Factors
Rodgers & Adams Connection: With Adams back, Rodgers has his favorite target again. This duo has the potential to turn the Jets’ offense around, especially against a Steelers defense that’s been vulnerable in coverage.
Steelers’ Offensive Struggles: Pittsburgh’s pass game is struggling mightily. Even with Russell Wilson seeing his first regular-season action, mixing in Justin Fields could spell trouble for the Steelers’ already beat-up offensive line.
Rich Crew’s Pick:
Take the Jets -1.5. With the chemistry between Rodgers and Adams, and the Steelers’ uncertainty on offense, the Jets should cover this small spread. I’d also consider the Under here.
