Jaguars Have Stern Response To Steelers Looking Ahead To Patriots

Ben Roethlisberger: I don't think this will be my last game at Heinz Field

In last week's 10-3 win over Buffalo in the AFC wild-card game at EverBank Field, Fournette was stuffed frequently.

FAST FACTS: Jaguars - QB Blake Bortles passed for a TD & had career-high yards rushing last week with five runs of more than 10 yards.

Before the Jacksonville Jaguars depart to Pittsburgh for Sunday's road playoff game against the Steelers, Mayor Lenny Curry hosted a "Sack the Steelers Send-off" at City Hall Friday afternoon. The Steelers got a first-round bye as the AFC's number two seed, giving him an extra week to heal.

Overall, this should be a game where the Steelers defense can try things, find themselves and still keep themselves in the game. We'll see if it pays off for him this weekend. "It will be a challenge for our guys up front". "All I can think about and worry about is this defense that we are playing". The Jaguars are largely made up of players those who do not follow them weekly will not be aware of while the Steelers have all the familiar names of Roethlisberger, Brown and Bell.

When these two met back on October 8 it was the Jaguars who pulled off a 30-9 road win. While putting arguably the league's pre-eminent lockdown cornerback on the Saints' foremost threat in the passing game would seem like a natural assignment, Rhodes was tasked with covering Thomas on just a handful of plays in the Vikings' Week 1 win. Running the ball and forcing turnovers is just what the Jaguars do. Roethlisberger won't throw a handful of interceptions again, and Bell will likely carry that offense against a D that is beatable on the ground.

Seagal accused of multiple sex assaults
A spokesperson for the LAPD said the department is investigating a separate case involving Seagal from 2005. After the assault, Simon said Seagal continued to call her for weeks until one day, he "just stopped".

Just before the end of the first half, the Steelers were facing a 3rd-and-6 at their own 19-yard line. "I'm not going out here getting the ball 400 times if I'm not getting what I feel I'm valued at". "And this is one of the best defenses I've ever played against". He had three hits and four hurries in the wild card game against Buffalo. It started in Week 16, when they rushed for only 92 yards against the San Francisco 49ers.

Of the many storylines from this week's slate of four divisional games, the rematch between Ben Roethlisberger and the Jacksonville Jaguars secondary is the one that has piqued my curiosity the most.

With the running game integral to the Saints' success, Thomas has to establish himself on Sunday in order to prevent Minnesota from consistently loading up the box. "We realise that health is a blessing in this game, but when we lack it we're not going to allow it to be an excuse". "I think this is obviously an exciting week for him after what happened last time we played Pittsburgh". But, I didn't see you know, like, demoralized. "He has done that all year long". Although three of those showings came against non-playoff contenders - the December 49ers kind of doubled as one, however - Bortles sliced up the (admittedly injury-riddled) Seahawks in a 268-yard, two-touchdown day that would be lethal on Sunday if the Jags' defense could be staked to this kind of an outing. Since Ryan Shazier went on injured reserve, Williams has stepped up his game, and he will have to play a great game against Fournette if the Steelers are going to win.

"You can't go out there against a good defense like that and run like a chicken with your head cut off", Fournette said. This is where you want to be playing your best. We didn't necessarily stick to our game plan.
