Steelers at Jaguars 11/18/18 - NFL Picks & Predictions

The Steelers are a team that has been playing some great football lately and are now sitting in sole possession of the first place in the AFC North. However, the Steelers are coming off of the bye week which is something they needed to have because they were fairly injured coming into the game.

Ben Roethlisberger is doing well for the Steelers on the year with a total of 2888 yards in the air and 21 touchdowns. James Conner has to make the Steelers asking Bell who as he has carried 164 times for 771 yards and 10 scores. The defense has given up an average of 23.2 points a game while the offense has scored 30.8 points a game. The Jaguars have been playing horrible recently and that is a major issue for the team as they have had some problems protecting the end zone, but also have had some issues in scoring on the year. What is really telling is the last game against the Colts when the Jaguars lost by 3 points in the game 29-26.

Blake Bortles has been doing decent passing the ball with 2341 yards and 12 touchdowns on the season. The rushing game has been led by T.J. Yeldon who has carried the ball 84 times for 346 yards and a touchdown. The defense is giving up 22.1 points a game, but the offense is only scoring at a clip of 17.8 points a game.
