They will do so for a Jets team that's desperately in need of a victory following their third consecutive loss in Week 6. The Jets have a positive point differential but sit at a 2-4 record through six weeks.

The Jets are desperate for a win and some renewed optimism while the Steelers are hoping to earn a victory in Wilson's Pittsburgh debut. Here's a look at the expected announcers and referee crew for today's Jets-Steelers game.
