New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith has admitted that the upcoming match against the Baltimore Ravens is a must-win if they are to make the playoffs.

Smith said that there will not be much between the two teams on Sunday and it could be decided by which team plays the most physical football.

"Of course [we want to win], we do every single week, but at the point in our season right now, it's kind of a little make-or-break," he told the club's official website.

"So we have to go out there and we have to win. I'm pretty sure they have the same mindset, so they have it. It sets up for a really good matchup, two physical, tough teams and pretty much the more physical team is going to win."

The Jets are 5-5 this season, while the Ravens are 4-6.
