Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Jets, who used a similar approach with Cromartie in their 22-17 win over the Steelers in Week 15, will match Pro Bowl CB Darrelle Revis against veteran wideout Hines Ward. Revis is tasked with sticking to Ward on crossing and intermediate routes. ... NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora went on to note the Jets typically use a full dose of man coverage, but the deep threat presented by Wallace, along with WRs Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown, could lead to the team employing a safety over the top against the Steelers, based on down and distance.
