Week 5 NFL: Watch Pittsburgh Steelers vs Jacksonville Jaguars Live game coverage

The Pittsburgh Steelers have always been known for being physical, but it appears that those injuries have been catching up with them. After losing twice at home to the Jaguars last season — including a playoff defeat — Pittsburgh will have revenge on its mind in Jacksonville on Sunday night as it looks to avoid a fifth straight loss to its former AFC Central rival.

Mike Tomlin’s team started 9-3 in his first year as coach in 2007, but the Steelers (3-1) stumbled at season’s end, losing four of their final five games.

The Jacksonville Jaguars handed Pittsburgh two of those defeats, both at Heinz Field. Jacksonville jumped out to big leads before holding on in the fourth quarter to extend their winning streak over the Steelers to four straight, the second victory being a 31-29 win in the wild-card round Jan. 5.

Jacksonville (2-2) sacked Ben Roethlisberger 11 times in the two games last season, and the Steelers have struggled to protect their quarterback again in 2008. Roethlisberger has been sacked 15 times through four games — most in the AFC — and Pittsburgh’s already shaky offensive line took another hit when it lost guard Kendall Simmons for the season during Monday night’s 23-20 overtime win over Baltimore.

Jacksonville was the league’s second-best rushing team a year ago, averaging 149.4 yards behind Taylor, Garrard and Maurice Jones-Drew. They’ve gotten the running game going in wins the past two weeks, gaining 187.5 ypg after averaging 65.5 in their opening losses.

With all the blitzes the Steelers are known to bring, Garrard knows the Jaguars will have to keep their offense balanced.

With all the blitzes the Steelers are known to bring, Garrard knows the Jaguars will have to keep their offense balanced and in the final analysis, the Jags should be able to put a notch in the win column on Sunday.
