Both teams last meet in Week 15, when the Jaguars beat the Steelers at home 29-22. Ben Roethlisberger and his crew never got in a rhythm offensively, as the Jaguars held the ball almost 15 minutes longer than Pittsburgh. Also, Jacksonville RB Fred Taylor rushed for 147 yards on a Steelers defense that had only allowed two 100-yard rushers in 63 games.
