Sports

The Jets sent the MetLife Stadium fans home unhappy.

In front of a crowd filled with Steelers fans, the Jets upset Pittsburgh 16-10 and sent the Steelers fans home upset.

It was not pretty, but Jets (6-9) will take it. Sam Ficken kicked three field goals and the defense stymied the Steelers offense and their two quarterbacks, hurting the Steelers’ chances of making the playoffs.

Ficken kicked his third field goal with 3:11 left in the game, a 42-yarder that gave the Jets a six-point advantage and then they had to hold their breath as the Steelers (8-7) got the ball two more times with three timeouts.
