Steelers vs. Jaguars: Who the experts are taking in this Week 8 playoff preview

CBS Sports has Pittsburgh's offense struggling again this week

CBS Sports Prediction: Jaguars 24, Steelers 20

Again, the issue that always persists when Pittsburgh is picked against is their lack of trust in the Steelers offense. That trend is ever apparent, and CBS Sports has that as the main reason to why the Jaguars will pull ahead in this one. They expect both defenses to play well, but the play of the quarterbacks will be the difference maker in this contest. They believe in Lawrence more than Pickett in this regard, and it's hard to blame them.

Bleacher Report Prediction: Jaguars 27, Steelers 24

Jacksonville is playing good football right now, and that is the prime reason why the Jaguars are picked by Bleacher Report. They are riding a four-game win streak, but they do recognize that the Steelers will be there ready to play football. Expect a tight matchup that comes down to the line. Kenny Pickett is the game changer here as the Jaguars could give up a lot of yardage if Pickett can settle his feet. If so, Pittsburgh has a chance at winning.

USA Today Predication: Jaguars 27, Steelers 23

Mike Tomlin is seen as a big factor as to why the Steelers will probably be in this game, but also a reason as to why they could win. They regard him as one of the best coaches in football still, despite some fans of the Steelers may be thinking alternatively. The offense is the reason why Pittsburgh is expected to lose again as Pickett and company won't be able to do enough to win. Should be a close game, but Jaguars will win.
