NFL 9/18 Monday Night Football - final roundup

The score:
Pittsburgh 1/1 - 0
at
Jacksonville 2/0 - 9
I picked: Pittsburgh (incorrect)
Well, what can you really say about tonight's game?


I think my assessment of the Jaguars might have been a bit off the mark. Either that or Pittsburgh is headed for a slide. The Jaguars shut out Pittsburgh tonight despite the fact that Reggie Hayward one of their best defenders was lost for the season after their victory last week.
Sure, Jacksonville didn't score any touchdowns but that is less of an issue when you're pitching a shutout on defense.
I think that Ben Roethlisberger played like a man who was sick tonight and that's good because he was sick going into the game. Although he hasn't looked good since the AFC Championship game.
The Steelers game against Cincinnati becomes double important now because if they lose they fall to 1/2 and are 2 games out of first place. Sure, its still early in the season but that's not a good place to be regardless of the time of year.
But that Jacksonville team could be more than just a 1 year wonder.
