In Week 4, the New York Jets will travel to face the Pittsburgh Steelers with their top quarterback Zach Wilson returning to the lineup. Take a look at our top picks for the Jets-Steelers matchup.

After starting the season 1-2 with veteran Joe Flacco leading the offense, Wilson (knee) will make his first start of 2022 for the Jets.

Meanwhile, the struggling 1-2 Steelers will once again start the ineffective journeyman QB Mitch Trubisky. Although they kicked off the season with an inspirational upset against their rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals, they have since suffered losses to the New England Patriots and Cleveland Browns.

Take a look at the newest and most reliable Underscoreg reviews from SBR.

Jets vs. Steelers ATS Pick

Steelers -3 (-114) ★★★★★

Even though the Steelers have struggled offensively, averaging only 18 points per game, they have managed to keep their games competitive. They won in overtime against Cincinnati in Week 1, lost by just three points in Week 2, and would have only lost by six to the Browns if not for a late defensive touchdown. On the other hand, the Jets suffered losses of 24-9 to Baltimore and 27-12 to the Bengals in their first two games.

In October, the Steelers have a strong record of 54-27-3 against the spread, while the Jets have struggled with a 1-9 record in their last 10 games against teams that have just lost. Despite Wilson’s return, the Steelers are expected to easily win this matchup.

Jets vs. Steelers O/U Pick

Under 41.5 (-107) ★★★

Both teams are currently scoring low per game, with the Steelers averaging 18 points and the Jets averaging 17.3. Although both defenses have been allowing points (22 per game for the Steelers and 27 for the Jets), I predict that this game will not be high-scoring.

Wilson was leading the league in interceptions before his injury last year. I believe that the Steelers’ defense will be able to pressure him into making mistakes, even without T.J. Watt. Additionally, the Steelers’ offense is not very strong, averaging only 272.7 yards per game, which is the second worst in the league.

Jets vs. Steelers Prop Pick

Wilson Over 205.5 passing yards ★★★★★

Despite the potential for Wilson to show some rust in his season debut, it’s hard to believe that 205.5 passing yards is an accurate prediction. The Jets are currently tied for third in the league, averaging 285.3 passing yards per game, while the Steelers are allowing 252 passing yards per game.

Joe Flacco has recorded passing yard totals of 309, 307, and 285 in his three games as the offensive leader. Wilson was chosen as the starter due to his superior quarterback skills, and it is anticipated that he will surpass the 300-yard mark, particularly if the Jets find themselves trailing and relying heavily on the passing game.
