Battle in Pittsburgh: Can Jets Protect Rodgers Against Watt?

Attention NFL fans! This Sunday night, the Jets and Steelers are set to clash in Pittsburgh. The game will showcase a crucial matchup between the Jets' right tackle, Morgan Moses, and the Steelers' edge rusher, T. J. Watt. Watt is one of the league's top pass rushers, and keeping him at bay is essential for the Jets to protect their new quarterback, Aaron Rodgers. Moses is recovering from a knee injury but is expected to play. Jeff Ulbrich, the Jets' interim coach, highlighted the importance of keeping Watt off balance.

The Jets recently traded for star wide receiver Davante Adams to bolster their offense, but their issues may run deeper than just the new addition. The Steelers have a formidable defense that could give the Jets trouble. Additionally, the Steelers are expected to start Russell Wilson at quarterback, which could mix up the game plans. Defensively, the Jets have struggled against the run, and they need to improve to have a shot at winning this crucial game. The Jets historically do not fare well in Pittsburgh, with a 2-10 record. However, they are hoping to reverse their luck and end their recent losing streak in the city. One area of concern for the Jets is their kicker, Greg Zuerlein, who has missed several field goals this season. The Jets have been looking at other kickers, indicating they are exploring backup options.
