2024 Week #7 GDT 4-2 Da Steelers host 2-4 Da Jets

[Steeler Hitman]

Who: Da 4-2 Steelers host Da 2-4 Jets

When: Sunday Night SNF October 20, 2024, at 8:20 pm (Hopefully there's no weather delay this time). 😜😉😏

Where: Acrisure Stadium Pittsburgh PA. Home Game #3

 

 

Special Note: 70's throwback Uniform Night! 

All-Time Series versus Da Jets & Last Meeting: Steelers lead the series 20-7 all-time. The last meeting was the Kenny Pickett debut.😏 Steelers lose at home 24-20.  Interesting stat: The Jets have won three of the last four meetings and the Steelers and Jets are 5-5 in the last 10 meetings. 

Steelers will need to slow down the Jets ground attack and defense. However, forcing A-A-Ron into some mistakes would go a long way towards helping the Steelers secure a victory.

Will Captain Russ make his debut or is it still in Justin we trust?

Pass rush has been down since injuries to Highsmith and Herbig. Teams have put more attention on Cam and TJ.

Predictions!!!!!

Steelers are inconsistent but competitive. I think the Jets need this game more and have had the Steelers number of late. I hope for a Steelers Sunday night victory, but it is hard to bet against Rogers with the Steelers QB situation in possible transition and the host of injuries. Hoping the ghost of Franco infuses Najee and Jalen, the ghost of Bradshaw enters whichever Steelers QB's play, and GP looks like Swanny. Jets over Steelers 24-23.

That will probably be it for Leal as a Steeler. This season was his shot to show something and he lost it to injury. Tough break.

I think the lack of offense will cause the Steelers to lose this game.  I think the Jets can score more than 20 points.

jets passrush will overtake wilson and the effect of having not played at all this year. This isn't the week to make the QB switch IMO

[3rivers]

not sure I like the grey facemasks on the old uniforms

still beter than round numbers but won't matter if the OL can't protect wilson. 

maybe we trade for mike williams before gametime and he can walk over to our sidelines and tell us the gameplan

[August4th]

looks highsmith will be back 

[MOSteelers56]

Frazier is out till the bye. That’s not great with the DTs we’ve got coming up. Russ might explode behind this line. I guess maybe we can hope for these NY defenses to come in overconfident 🥲

[VigilantZombie]

So, we are benching the taller, faster, bigger QB for Wilson, great. Score prediction: 35-10. Jets.

I didn't like the pick when we made it.
