Sunday Night Football Pittsburgh Steelers vs Jacksonville Jaguars NFL Picks: The Steelers are (3-1) coming off a hard fought game on Monday night football beating Baltimore 23-20. The Pittsburgh Steelers were down by 10 points, and down to their fourth and last running back. Somehow, they found an offense that was missing for most of three quarters and a way to win a game that easily could have been lost. QB Ben Roethlisberger was 14/24, 191 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com currently list Jacksonville Jaguars -4 favorites to Pittsburgh Steelers heading into this matchup. Steelers got a win Monday night despite getting manhandled much of the game and do not appear to be the "elite" team everyone thought. They still remain a top team in the AFC but are they good enough to win on the road in Jacksonville? Jacksonville won two crucial games against Pittsburgh last year, including a postseason knockout.
"We lost a lot of guys," quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said. "I was more emotional, more vocal than I've ever been at halftime. I screamed at our offense. We were terrible in the first half. Not that we were great in the second half, but we bounced back." The Jaguars are (2-2) coming off an OT win, a fiercely contested division battle against the Texans which they pulled off 30-17. QB Garrard is getting better protection with just a single sack last week, and he has gone 39-of-54 the past couple of games. Their offensive line has been slowly improving after a terrible start to the season, as has their defensive line, and the performance of David Garrard and the run defense is testament to that improvement. The online sports betting odds at Sportsbook.com has the OVER/UNDER in this Pittsburgh Steelers vs Jacksonville Jaguars is set at 36 points. NFL Picks: The Steelers showed some surprising resilience after the half against Baltimore. The Ravens manhandled them in the first half pretty bad. Whatever Tomlin told them at the half seemed to get them back where they needed to be. The games between these two teams have been great the last couple years and Jacksonville has had the success lately. Despite all the injuries to both teams, I expect a great game and close all the way to the finish. Catching the Steelers off their Monday Nighter with Baltimore is a plus, so note that the host is on a 14-5 ATS run in Pitt games.
