The Jacksonville Jaguars face the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Divisional Round of the AFC Playoffs on Saturday. Take a look at three key players for the Jags.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have taken an unlikely route to the playoffs. After starting out slow in the beginning of the season, Blake Bortles and company put together winning streaks of three and four consecutive games to propel them to playoff positioning.
Even still, many were taking them lightly, not believing that the Jaguars would be able to make any noise in the playoffs. However, the Jaguars have proven people wrong to this point, defeating the Buffalo Bills by a 10-3 score in last Sunday’s Wild Card game.
With players such as rookie running back Leonard Fournette and a talented defense to supplement the offensive production, the Jaguars are more dangerous than some people may think. Now set to take on the Steelers, the team knows they have a tough challenge in front of them, but are also confident as they prepare to and get their first playoff victory in 10 years.
With that in mind, we take a look at three players that need to step up if the Jaguars want to pull off the upset.
