This game's line implies a passing game script for the Jets, who are -3-point underdogs.In regards to pass-blocking (and the positive impact it has on all passing attack stats), the offensive line of the Jets profiles as the 8th-best in football last year.Last year, the poor Pittsburgh Steelers defense has surrendered the 5th-most adjusted yards-per-target in the league to opposing wideouts: a monstrous 8.72 yards.Last year, the weak Steelers defense has conceded the 7th-most yards-after-the-catch in the NFL to opposing WRs: a whopping 4.84 YAC.When it comes to cornerbacks in defending pass-catchers, Pittsburgh's CB corps has been awful last year, ranking as the 2nd-worst in football.
