NFL…Game of the Week

Each week, I will chose a game of the week, comment on the keys to the game, and make a prediction…

Week 14: The Jags head the Pittsburg to face the Steelers. Both teams are 9-4, the Jags leading the Wild Card and the Steelers leading their division. This game will definitely have a playoff atmosphere and there could be a rematch in the Wild Card games just four weeks away. Pittsburg is undefeated at home this season, but will need the crowd’s support to rebound after a tough week last week against the Patriots. Jacksonville is one of the more dangerous teams of late. They come into the game after dismantling Carolina last week, and behind QB David Garrard, have played solid, team football. The key matchup this week will be the Pittsburg defense, 1st in the league in many categories, against the nearly mistake free David Garrard. In a hard-fought, defensive battle, Pittsburg wins a close game, 20-17.
