The Jaguars secondary is suspect, but Big Ben practiced today for the 1st time all week, his shoulder is still sore and he's NOT 100%.
Jaguars rushing for 143 a game. Fred Taylor has went for 100+ the last 3 weeks, he is a bowling bowl and will steamroll through a Pittsburgh defense operating without Aaron Smith. When that big boy gets tired, Maurice Jones Drew will be there with fresh legs and that insane breakaway speed.. The Steelers gave up 100 to Thomas Jones, they'll give up 100 or more this week against the best combination backs in the NFL.
David Garrard is healthy, he makes good decisions and has _1_ INT on the year, the Jaguars have too much they can do in this game. They can run, they can play action, they can throw screens, they're getting 100+ on the ground, that's just the bottom line.
Marcus Stroud is OUT for the year, but he wasn't 100% even when he was in for the Jaguars, with Rob Myer, Grady Jackson, Henderson in there stopping the run they'll do fine without him. The Jaguars have a smarter coach, and they will out-physical the Steelers. They are very very under the radar.
Take them straight up.
