This week the Steelers dispatched the Denver Broncos by shutting them down in the second half and putting on another dazzling offensive display against one of the NFL’s top defenses. The Steelers 34-27 victory keeps them right in the thick of the wild card race, while the Broncos may be in danger of missing the playoffs entirely if they don’t get it together. Unfortunately for the Jets, the Steelers play the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns in their next two games and the Chiefs are on an eight game win streak.

A police spokesperson said the incident occurred in the afternoon near the Old City’s Jaffa Gate, a popular tourist spot. Most have taken place around the Damascus Gate, the main entrance to the Old City’s Muslim quarter.
Wouldn’t it be something else if the Chiefs caught the Broncos in the AFC West? But Pittsburgh is 4-1 in common games with the Jets while NY is just 3-2. “That being said, we’ve got to go out there and do it. We’ve got to go out there and make sure the chemistry we’ve built up is showing on Sunday”.

Maybe they just want to be on his “like” list so they can keep abreast of his latest antics. Trump said he didn’t do it for the polls, so he doesn’t care what the polls say.
“They’ve got a good thing going over there”, Fitzpatrick said of the Patriots. “All I’ve got to worry about is us”. I can’t control what Pittsburgh or Denver does. “So we’ve just got to get ready for New England this week”.
However, the Chiefs have a solid chance to win the AFC West. They trail Denver by just a game now with two games to play and the Chiefs hold the tie-breaker.
According to Steelers PR/Media Manager Dom Rinelli, the team has now scored in 21 consecutive quarters dating back to the fourth quarter against the Oakland Raiders six games ago. The Broncos are the only team in the National Football League that can still be a No. 1 seed or miss the playoffs altogether. If they go 1-1 to finish 10-6, they need one of those teams to lose both of its games.
The Bengals victory over the 49ers clinches a playoff berth, but the team is eyeing a much bigger prize – clinching a first-round bye.
The Jets are going to need some help if they want to make the postseason.
For weeks now the Steelers have been projected as the No. 6 seed in the AFC and that remains the most likely possibility, but scenarios to get the No. 5, 3 or even No. 2 seed have grown. They have scored at least 30 points in each game, needless to say. Last week I said the Jaguars would win their division, and the Falcons wouldn’t get another win for the rest of the season.
This would give the Jets a 10-5 record while the Pats would fall to 12-3. And third-year corner Logan Ryan hasn’t been bad either. In the receiving end, Emmanuel Sanders had 181 yards and one touchdown in 10 receptions while Demaryius Thomas added 61 yards and two touchdowns in five receptions.
“This is a huge one for me, and I’m excited”, said Fitzpatrick, 33, who is having a renaissance season with the Jets after bouncing around among five teams before being traded from the Texans in the offseason.
Biggest one ever for Fitzpatrick? The last pick, in the final minute by CB Marcus Williams, came on an underthrown Hail Mary by QB Kellen Moore. However, the team didn’t look particular good against the run in Saturday’s win over the Cowboys.
Another concern for the Jets is the kicking game.

Pittsburgh has games left at Baltimore and at Cleveland. DeAngelo Williams had just 26 yards on 14 attempts. To Jets coach Todd Bowles, who’ll face Butler and the Patriots on Sunday, the second-year cornerback has been fantastic. It’s the first of Wilkerson’s career, and seventh for Revis – fifth with the Jets. The fact of the matter is that this unit does not have the potential to dominate opposing offenses like it has in the past.
