This game fits in nicely among my favorite games in the series.  Leonard Fournette continued a nice tradition of Jaguars running backs going up to Pittsburgh and running all over that defense.

Didn't we beat them in the snow one year? Or was that Green Bay we beat? I remember everyone talking about how the southern team was going up north and they were going to get beat by the weather alone, never mind the opposing team. Then we went up there and "beat them like a Cherokee drum" as The Rock so eloquently put it, talking to Jason Statham's character in a movie they were in. 

The match ups have always been fun. Bill Cowher on the sideline literally spitting mad yelling at players. He was as entertaining as the games.   Man, those were the days. I may have to pull up an old game on youtube and watch it now.....

Actually we beat both Pittsburgh and Green Bay in the cold at their places, but in two different years.

We beat Green Bay in Lambeau in 2004.  The memorable thing about that game is I think it was the coldest (or second to Cincinnati) game in Jaguars history, and that was the game where Darius clotheslined Ferguson.

We beat the Steelers twice in Pittsburgh in the 2007 season.  We are the only team to have ever beaten Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh twice in the same season.  The first time was in December, and yes that was a snow game.  The second game was the playoff game featuring the Garrard scramble late to put the team in FG range to beat them.   It shouldn't have been that close, but Garrard let them get back in the game with some INTs.
