After three long weeks for this Jets offense without its franchise quarterback, Zach Wilson is expected to make his season debut on Sunday against the Steelers. And his presence could pay immediate dividends.
New York is catching 3.5 points on the road against Pittsburgh, which has lost two straight but is still favored to win this one in a clash of 1-2 teams. Can the Jets surprise in Wilson’s debut?
Here’s how we’re betting Sunday’s contest, which kicks off at 1 p.m. ET on CBS.
This isn’t the type of game that has you feeling great about either side, given the uncertainty at quarterback for both clubs. But I feel a heck of a lot better wagering on a returning Wilson than I do betting on a fully healthy Mitch Trubisky.
The former Bears starter has been abysmal in three games with the Steelers, and it shows in the team’s 1-2 record. Pittsburgh barely won in Week 1 despite its defense recording five takeaways and blocking a kick just to send it to overtime.
