Revis will make Jackson a nonfactor (Gates worries me, but Rhodes did a good job on Gonzalez) and the Jets got gashed by the Bengals on the ground, while SD has no running game whatsoever. Their defense also can't stop the run, so it seems unlikely that Sanchez is suddenly going to have to throw for 300 yards. It's hard to be very confident going up against a red-hot team like them, but I don't think anything about the matchup is particularly difficult.
I think the Chargers are the toughest match-up for the Jets. If Revis neutralizes Jackson the Chargers still have big physical receivers that will give the rest of the Jet secondary trouble. Rivers throws the most deep balls in the league and is one of the best at it and Floyd, Naanee, and Gates are all tough match-ups. The play I think will hurt the aggressive Jet D the most is the screen which SD does well. That being said you still have the Norv Turner factor on your side. Good Luck.
