It wouldn't be a stretch to beat Pittsburgh IMO. They have their final 2 games against Carolina and Cleveland so they will probably win the division even with a loss to the Jets.
Pittsburgh will probably use a very basic scheme on offense and defense just as they did in 2008 against the Titans at the end of the year. No need to go all out against a team late in the season that you have a very good chance at playing in the playoffs unless that team is the Ravens.
While I agree that Pitt probably won't go all-out against the Jets, I don't think they really NEED to, you know? I think Pitt can dick around and probably beat the jets without trying very hard. Pitt would have to play a very medicore game and the Jets would have to play a very good game to beat Pitt. Like I said in my original post - not impossible, but very likely that they lose to Pitt.

I have seen that plenty of times.
Right, but when you saw that, did your team call for a fake punt on 4th and 18, get to the first down line, get the play challenged, and get it overturned, and give up a FG because they were being hilarious dumbasses?
Did you miss FG attempts?
Oh, and how about "• On a play sure to generate controversy this week, Packers cornerback Charles Woodson took the ball away from Jets tight end Dustin Keller in the fourth quarter and was credited with an interception. It appeared that Keller actually caught the ball and should have been ruled down by contact before Woodson ripped the ball out of his hands, but the Jets were out of challenges and couldn't call for a replay review, giving the Packers a gift of a turnover."
Coach wasting challenges and such? I mean, it was just terrifyingly bad.
And that's the kind of shit that Pitt will get a touchdown off where GB just got a FG off...
