Jets vs. Steelers Best Prop Bets for NFL Week 4 (Zach Wilson's Return Will Make Big Difference)
The Jets and the Steelers, both 1-2 teams, battle it out in Week 4. The big storyline coming into this game is the fact that Zach Wilson, who’s been out with an MCL sprain, is making his return. New York finally gets a chance to see its sophomore quarterback with the new weapons they acquired this offseason.
BetSided has you covered with a preview, but let’s dive into the props.
Best Prop Bets For Jets-Steelers Week 4
- Zach Wilson OVER 208.5 Passing Yards
- Diontae Johnson OVER 5.5 Receptions
- Elijah Moore OVER 42.5 Receiving Yards
Zach Wilson OVER 206.5 Passing Yards
Wilson is making his first start of the year, but don’t let that scare you. The Steelers allow over 250 passing yards per game, and teams have tried to attack that all season (28th in opponent pass attempts per game).
The Jets have thrown the ball the most of any team through the first three games, and that should continue. Wilson can move, but New York won’t put him in harm's way in his first game back. He’ll be asked to get the ball to his playmakers and win the game from the pocket.
Diontae Johnson OVER 5.5 Receptions
The Steelers’ passing game has been terrible this season, but Johnson is one of the lone bright spots. He’s cleared this line in each game this season, mainly due to volume. Johnson has seen double-digit targets in every game. As long as he’s healthy, he’s going to have the ball thrown his way.
Elijah Moore OVER 42.5 Receiving Yards
Moore was the most targeted Jets receiver last season and is tied for third this year. With Wilson coming back, his connection with Wilson should be front and center. Moore has already cleared this line twice this season. Now his quarterback is in the lineup and he will be his favorite target.
