W2W4: Pittsburgh Steelers vs New York
Jets
The New York Jets will be back home on
Sunday afternoon after a great win on Monday Night Football against
the Atlanta Falcons to host the (0-4) Pittsburgh Steelers, who are
coming off a bye week from their loss in London England against the
Minnesota Vikings.
- Barnes to IR
In the win against the Falcons the Jets
did suffer a pretty big loss in the fourth quarter, as Linebacker
Antwan Barnes had his knee buckle while rushing Matt Ryan, and will
be out for the rest of the season. Barnes has played in 41% of the
Jets snaps this year, as they have been using him as a pass rush
specialist, and he was producing quite well in the role, with two
sacks, and a team-leading 12 hits on the Quarterback. To replace
Barnes the Jets resigned Linebacker Ricky Sapp, who was waived by the
team on Saturday.
