5 Bold Predictions For Steelers vs. Jets

new york jets steelers — The red-hot Pittsburgh Steelers are coming to MetLife Stadium to take on the abysmal New York Jets. Take a look at five bold predictions for this Week 10 matchup.

5. Jets' Defense Will Get Rocked

5. Jets' Defense Will Get Rocked

new york jets steelers — The Jets won't have any answers for one of the most potent offenses in the NFL. The Steelers do everything right on offense, whether it's on the ground or the air, and should have a field day against the Jets' defense. Expect to see some huge numbers put up by the Steelers, as the Jets will give up some record-breaking numbers due to their issues at cornerback. They only have one interception for the season and have allowed 24 touchdown passes!

4. Steelers' Defense Will Shut Down Jets

4. Steelers' Defense Will Shut Down Jets

new york jets steelers — Even though safety Troy Polamalu has officially been ruled "out" for this matchup, the Steelers' defense shouldn't miss a beat. The truth of the matter is the Jets' offense simply doesn't capitalize on scoring opportunities. Even with quarterback Michael Vick running things now, he still looks rusty as he tries to return to form. Expect the Jets' offense to struggle despite the rash of injuries in the Steelers' secondary.

3. Chris Johnson Continues Resurgence

3. Chris Johnson Continues Resurgence

new york jets steelers — Last week running back Chris Johnson was frustrated with his role on the Jets and rebounded nicely with a big game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Considering he ran for over 100 yards and had two receptions for 32 yards, expect to see him try to replicate those results this week. It will be hard, but Johnson has what it takes to be physical against the strong defensive front of the Steelers.

2. Michael Vick Will Get Rattled

2. Michael Vick Will Get Rattled

new york jets steelers — Vick not only missed a series last week against the Chiefs due to a head injury, but he's apparently dealing with a foot injury as well. Since he is continuing the trend of playing hurt or missing time due to injuries, expect to see the Steelers bring the heat to Vick. While he played well last week against the Chiefs, it's only a matter of time before he gets rattled and the Steelers know exactly how to get him to rush his decisions.

1. Big Ben Will Continue Making History

1. Big Ben Will Continue Making History

new york jets steelers — Considering the fact that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger became the first at his position to ever throw six touchdown passes in two straight games, imagine what he will do against the Jets? Expect that streak to continue as he should absolutely have a field day against one of the worst defensive secondaries in the NFL. He might even throw for more than six scores in this game. Yes, the Jets are that bad.
