Jacksonville Jaguars Fan Forums

I miss the old AFC central duels between these teams, but I'm really excited for this new era in the AFCS.

I have no concerns beyond the general health of our roster and the attrition of compiling injuries as we head toward the postseason.

Yeah, we have IOL issues, yeah we've had some little slumps of offensive efficiency, but everything is trending in the right direction at the moment - and the defense has been stepping up amazingly.

Feels good to, even with problems, be 5th in total TDs


Also surprised by the fact that we are #1 in rushing att and 2# in pass att, we had some long drives this season

Squealers have a tough d-line.

Could easily see this being a low scoring game

Let’s go JJ’s.

And 4 baby! On AstroTurf. Fred had the rebox on. 

Most ever @ 3 Rivers and in Steelers history

The Steelers games were always great. Remember the 9-0 on MNF in 2006. Rashean was a beast back then.

I will always remember that playoff win in 2017 though. Going up against Roethlisberger, Bell, Brown, they were a great team and we just snuck past the Bills in the wildcard and it felt like we could get destroyed but Fournette was amazing that day, Bortles had one of his best games and that play action to Tommy Bohannon was just beautiful.

Pittsburgh are a weird team. Very young and have moments they look good and moments they look terrible. Watt is a game wrecker and they've got weapons all along the Dline. Pickets is an interesting QB. Again struggles for big parts but puts it together for game winning drives.

Think it would be a similar gameplan to the Colts. Stop the run, try and get a 2-3 score lead and make them throw heavy. Both Minshew and Carr threw 55 times against us.

It doesn’t have a column for games played but I’m going to assume the answer to your comment is that us and the saints have played at least 1 more game than the rest of the lleague.

Miami has had a joke of a schedule thus far. They've beaten nothing but losing teams.

The idea of going 6-2 into the bye week and it being practically expected is wild to me, what a good first half.

We haven't started 6-2 since 1999. Would be amazing if we can beat Pit and be 6-2 going into the bye week

Brown had a really good game against the Saints but I really hope Campbell comes back to put on Pickens with his size and physicality. Campbell's speed, size, and coverage ability is the perfect corner to play Pickens.

I just hope Trevor wears the brace to keep his shoe on this game.

And the offense hasn’t even played great.

When the offense finally clicks, this team will be very very good.

The brace also gives him +5 speed. Blazing

Brother, we have played 1 more game than everyone else... If they've had a bye 2 games more.

That's the weird part.. I really thought our offense would be much better ad D would be much worse.

I don't think we can roll a complete offense out until the line gets fixed. We saw glimmers of it in the 1st half

Good point.   I didn't realize the extent of it.  If you use NFL.com's power rankings, four of Miami's wins come against teams ranked 28, 29, 31 and 32 in the NFL.  I remind you that there are only 32 teams.  Their one other win was also against a team that came into today with a losing record.

Steelers gonna beat LA after refs steal any chance of them coming back. Some terrible calls in the last couple minutes.

Refs are really affecting the results today. Steelers don't look all that great but they got the win. Could be an important game in the AFC at season's end.

Watt gonna be a problem. Hopefully we find a way to block him
