Jags @ Steelers Game Thread

[TBR]

Fournette is a huge loss if he can’t come back.

I think he comes back after halftime.

This is now a game of "Can Jacksoville's D hold off Pittsburgh's O"

Because without Fournette, I don't see Jacksonville scoring more than a field goal in the second half.

Fournette adds a few yards no question but I think as long as blocking keeps doing its job Yeldon can be good enough to get a couple FGs.

The Jags will need to score more points to have a chance. 21 wont be enough.

PIT is a vertical offense. JAX defense is designed to negate that. The game is in doubt with Fournette out but I wouldn't underestimate JAX's ability to force Ben into more mistakes.

Jags dline needs to get some pressure here

 

[BobDigital]

Well time for the Jags d to show up. They took last drive off. They can't give up a TD here.

Pick 6 Jax coming

Game's not over just yet lol.

If the Jags defense is as elite as the media would love to tell everyone it shouldn't blow this lead.

OMG! I just wet myself over that Turbo Tax commercial!!

With Fournette out I'm skeptical of Jax holding on.

This is where coaching makes a difference.
You need 1 TD or 2 FG the rest of the day and as long as the strength of your team doesn’t totally shlt itself you are in the Afccg. You need to coach to that.

Ugh I hope it’s not an upcoming implosion.

 

[VectorPrime]

Sigh, we all know how this is going to go

Worth remembering the 49ers game was only 3 weeks ago

I’m not convinced Jax can finish this off quite yet. Looks like they are trending in the right direction, but Pitt has much more playoff/big game experience.

Agreed. They're immature and super young. Been reading their own press clippings all year, not that Pittsburgh hasn't.

 

[VegasGuy]

Downfield blocking by Washington while ball was in there air, no?

 

[obgod3]

Wow some serious holding by the steelers not getting called

 

[PatsBoy12]

Indeed.

Yeldon is serviceable but he's not Fournette
