The Jacksonville Jaguars will need to climb a steep hill in Week 11.

The 1-8 Jacksonville Jaguars will take on the 9-0 Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. If you can think of a more one-sided matchup, let us know, but the odds don’t look good for the ‘Jags’ at this moment. That doesn’t mean they should go ahead and forfeit the game though.

In fact, the Jaguars have a few playmakers on offense that could keep things interesting and even give the Steelers a scare. One of them is James Robinson, who is one of the best running backs in the league, not just rookies, but the whole NFL.

Although this Jacksonville may be without wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. on Sunday, they have enough players to make up for his absence. Keelan Cole has played well when given the chance and DJ Chark Jr. has taken over games before.

On the other hand, things won’t be easy for Jacksonville as the Steelers’ front seven is one of the best in the NFL and their defense ranks third in points allowed with 171 while the Jaguars offense is 26th in the league with 199.

If the Jaguars want to have a chance to pull the upset, they will have to avoid turning the ball over and score touchdowns instead of field goals. For that to happen these four players will have to shine at EverBank Field.
