AFC Wildcard Playoff Game

The second annual NFL football polls begin. Who do you think will win the AFC Wildcard game. If you are a fan of either team, just say you're a fan (even though if you wish to add some more reasons, that is fine) otherwise, if you are not a fan, please give a reason.

I think Jacksonville will win because they are built to play in the cold climes and will run the ball through the Steelers Defense.

I like the Running Game of Jacksonville and there QB doesn't make many mistakes...Parker being out i think hurts Pittsburgh!!!...but it wouldn't be a shock if Pittsburgh won!!

I'm a Steelers fan so I picked the Steelers. They sat a bunch of guys today so they should be pretty healthy by saturday. Hopefully the defense will play at the level they did earlier in the season.

I want Jacksonville to win, therefore, the Steelers will prevail.

Best looking game of the four wild card match-ups.

I picked the Steelers, but think this one could easily go either way

Jacksonville, because it's warm there (not where the game is, but in Jacksonville). I need the mental warmness, because it's been -20 overnight for about the past week.....

Jacksonville, if only because they already beat Pitt a few weeks ago in the snow. They have a great running game, smart QB, and a tough D. I think they might actually be the 3rd best team in the AFC.

I'm a Steeler fan but I favor Jacksonville in this one. They ran through the Steelers D a couple weeks ago. Steelers have lost 3 of the last 4 and don't seem to have much in the way of momentum going into the playoffs. They will need to play much better than they did against the Jags a couple weeks ago to have any chance of winning.

Karat,

The game is 8 o'clock on Saturday.

Although Jax beat us (I'm a PIT fan) a two weeks ago, I don't see it happening twice in one season. I prefer when people count us out!

While I love Willie Parker, he's a fast track back and having Davenport doing most of the heavy lifting now will help.

Ben and the top two receivers (Ward and Holmes) will be ready to go after sitting Ward and Big Ben yesterday.

I'm not happy that Aaron Smith is out on D, but I think we can and will win this one.

Go Steelers!

I'm a Jaguars fan. I'm picking them.
The Jags rested Garrard, Taylor, and Jones Drew yesterday so hopefully they'll have their game on.
Hopefully the D will put the pressure on Big Ben again. He doesn't do so well when that happens.
I not so sure if Pitt has found an answer for the one-two punch of Jones Drew and Taylor since they met a couple of weeks ago.
That said, Pitt scares me and is the one teams that I did not wanna play just because it seems hard to win there twice.
