Pittsburgh Steelers at New York Jets (*The Armchair Quarterback Lock of the Week*)

Here’s the bottom line: Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh passing attack have been on absolute fire recently and the Jets have allowed opposing QBs to average the highest QB Rating of any team in the NFL. In fact, the Jets have allowed a staggering 24 TDs and only one interception. I just don’t see any way that Michael Vick can keep pace with the Steelers. Look for Pittsburgh to win this one comfortably.

Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

We’ve now reached the section of the column where the only people that care much about this game are the fans of these specific teams. If you remember back a few weeks, the Falcons obliterated the Bucs on Thursday Night Football. The Bucs will be playing for pride in this one, but I think Matt Ryan will make just enough plays to pull this one out.
