This weekend the Pittsburgh Steelers will battle against the New York Jets. While the Steelers have won 4 in a row and look like the top challengers to the Patriots in the AFC, the Jets are coming off of back to back losses.

The over/under total for the game is presently sitting at 36, the Steelers are 6-point favorites in NFL Odds.

After their tough loss to the Patriots the Jets look like they might be sliding. They could not get anything going against the Dolphins as they were absolutely smashed. Even though the Steelers may have the best defense in the NFL, the Dolphins are a solid defensive team.

Between one of the best run defenses in the league against one of the best run offenses in the game, this game will be an epic battle. To get their offense going the Jets rely heavily on the run. On the ground the Steelers allow just 60 yards per game unfortunately. They will force Sanchez to step up in this game if the Steelers keep the Jets under 100 yards.

He has not been nearly as good as of late while Sanchez started the season strong. In his first 5 games he threw 0 interceptions. He has not had a single game in which he did not throw an interception since week 6. The Jets will have a very difficult time winning if he doesn’t protect the ball in this game. In order to the performance of Sanchez, this game will likely come down.
