Saw you guys arguing, went to smoke, and this is EXACTLY what I thought. Jacksonville is a better team than I've been willing to admit this season. While I believe they're capable of keeping many teams under 10 points, Pittsburgh when they're playing even meh, is not one of them. I know they already stomped them bad once, but I think we can all admit that Pitt just had their worst game of the year that week, and that shit can happen to anyone (Broncos v Seattle always comes to mind when thinking of an amazing offense shitting the bed). Bortles also looked fucking awful today. If he can even play at a game manager level, and Jacksonville's defense does what they've done almost every week this year (minus against the God that is Jimmy G), they've got a good chance at winning.
If NE gets through Tennessee, which also isn't a certain, I like our chances of beating either Pitt or Jacksonville, but I think Jacksonville has the better team to beat NE. If they go after Brady HARD, they could destroy us.
Yeah Pitt played bad that game, but there are moments when teams play bad every game, and it's up to the other team to capitalize on it.
I think the Steelers are definitely favorites, but I bet it's closer than people think, with the jags having a real shot to win.
Honestly to me it's like 57/43
Edit: UGH I'm dreading the headlines about harrison v Steelers if the Steelers/Pats do win..
