Predictions for How to Watch Week 7 “SNF.”

play

Both the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets enter their Week 7 Sunday Night Football matchup with a new look.

The Jets made a splash on October 15 when they completed a trade for Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams. The move reunites the three-time All-Pro with quarterback Aaron Rodgers and provides a much-needed boost to the Jets' struggling offense. While New York showed signs of life against the Bills in Week 6, it still ended in a loss to their division rival.

The highlight of the defeat was an interception by Rodgers on a pass intended for Mike Williams; The quarterback wasn't too happy with the receiver for the route. It's no surprise that the deal went through.

Pittsburgh is making its own sweeping changes. The Steelers are turning to quarterback Russell Wilson to lead their lackluster offense, which ranks 20th in the league in points and 26th in the league in yards on offense.

Wilson has yet to play a snap for Pittsburgh because the veteran passer is dealing with a calf injury. Instead, it was Pittsburgh center Justin Fields who has used his legs to great effect this year. Fields has five rushing touchdowns to his name and five passing touchdowns, leading some to question why the move is being made for the 4-2 squad.

It's a battle between two AFC playoff contenders. USA TODAY Sports will provide live updates, highlights and more for the Week 7 “Sunday Night Football” matchup below.

The Jets fired Robert Saleh after struggling to win consistently under his leadership for more than three years.

“This was not an easy decision, but we are not yet where we should be expected to be,” Jets owner Woody Johnson wrote in a statement announcing the firing. “I think now is the best time for us to go in a different direction.”

Saleh posted just a 20-36 record with the Jets, and while his defense was routinely among the best in the league, New York's offense was at the other end of the spectrum.

Only two teams in NFL history have made the playoffs with an interim head coach: the 2021 Las Vegas Raiders and the 1961 Houston Oilers (now the Tennessee Titans).
