The Jag's pulled one out tonite. 31-29 over the Steeler's. Big Ben was sacked and stripped with 30 seconds left. Jacksonville heads to the next round of the play offs.

Pretty good game! Both games were decent today. I was pulling for Jacksonville! I haven't liked Pittsburg since they beat the Cowboys twice in the Super Bowl!

Now I'm a Titans fan. If they win, then Jacksonville gets to play the Patriots next week.

Jacksonville is the first team EVER to beat the Steelers twice on their home turn in the same season - not exactly the legacy Mike Tomlin wanted in his first year, I'm sure. But the Jags earned it. They held Najeh Davenport to 25 yards rushing and were able to force a turnover and get the winning kick when they needed it most. That's exactly was playoff teams have to be able to do. On the other hand, Roethlesberger lit up that defense. How much worse will it be with Brady or Manning back there?

This game was lost on the third and five play with over 2 minutes left when Pittsburgh chose to have Roethlisberger run some sort of half-assed bootleg that didn't go anywhere rather than throw the ball. The resulting punt and return had the Jags at midfield.

Jax has peaked at the right time...most people are saying they have the best chance to knock off the might Patriots...though I personally am still pulling for either the Colts or Cowboys to do it.

I absolutely agree. A first down there and the Jags don't even get the ball back.

Both quarterbacks hold the ball way too long to begin with, meaning they are much more likely to be sacked. Garrard cannot hold onto the ball against the Pats like that or they have even less of a chance than they already do.

I don't care who does it, as long as somebody does it.

Jacksonville is such a better football team than the Steellers, the score should of been 50-3, they need to learn to finish the game, and they need to learn it fast.
