#473/474 ASA PLAY ON UNDER 39 Points - NY Jets at Pittsburgh Steelers, Sunday at 8:20 PM ET - The two best units on the field Sunday when these AFC teams square off will be the defenses. The Jets are allowing 4.6 Yards Per Play which is the 3rd lowest YPP number in the NFL. The Steelers aren’t far behind allowing 5.0YPP (7th best). Pittsburgh ranks 3rd in Yards Per Point allowed, the Jets are 15th. These two defenses are 6th and 7th in Red Zone TD’s allowed per game and 2nd/7th in Points Allowed Per Game at 14.3 (Steelers)/ 18 (Jets). Offensively there isn’t a lot of good news for either team. New York is averaging 4.9YPP (24th) while the Steelers average 4.8YPP (27th). The Jets and Steelers have both scored 20 or less points in 4 of six games this season. This line ticked up this week with the news of QB Russell Wilson starting for the Steelers and WR Davante Adams getting traded to the Jets. We don’t feel there will be an upgrade at QB for Pittsburgh as Wilson wasn’t good last season. As far as we know, Davante Adams can’t protect Aaron Rodgers blindside and won’t have an impact on this game as the oddsmakers suggest. Pittsburgh is a strong Under team at home with a 15-21-1 Under record since 2020, 4-7 Unders as a home dog. The Jets are 13-20-1 Under as a road team since 2020.
