Jaguars 29 - Steelers 22

No writers I read predicted the Jaguars to be able to go into Heinz Field and smash the Steelers in the mouth. They handed the Steelers their first home loss of the year with Fred Taylor picking up 147 yards on the day. What a game. Weather played a big factor in the Jags kicking game as they missed 2 extra points. But what impressed me most is how they were able to be a 4th quarter team. When Leftwich was QB they seemed to get tired after 3. Here they had the lead, saw Pit come back to tie with 5 minutes remaining and they didn't lose composure on either side of the ball. If Tennessee had lost they would be in with a Wild Card spot. That's ok, they only have Oakland and Houston left so they should win out if they don't get excited and overlook either of them.

The Jags would be number 3 in the conference if they were in the North or West divisions.
