Narrative
The Steelers held the Jags to a 3-and-out and went right after their defense.
Told you ben would go to ab first play’

.@_BigBen7 and @AB84 on the same page today. 1st play good for 49 yards #JAXvPIT #WTAE

Antonio Brown just did Ramsey like he was wrongly holding Winterfell from the Starks.
— The Steelers n'at (@thesteelersnat) October 8, 2017
Just like vs. DEN last year, #Steelers will want to prove they can throw on anyone.
— Behind the Steel Curtain (@btsteelcurtain) October 8, 2017
L Bell now fourth place all-time on the #Steelers rushing list #WPXI
— Alby Oxenreiter (@albyox) October 8, 2017
Red-zone touchdowns again difficult to come by. Steelers settle for Boswell 29-yard FG
— Joe Rutter (@tribjoerutter) October 8, 2017
The defense held again and the offense was rolling, but Jalen Ramsey undercut a pass to Vance McDonald.
Ramsey had a really similar pick like that against the Ravens. Pressured forced the throw.

If Ben Roethlisberger led his intended receivers as hard as he leads the team on his radio show — well, he'd have fewer INTs.
— Jacob Klinger (@Jacob_Klinger_) October 8, 2017
Jacksonville rolled down the short field and scored.
Third and 2 . . . "Don't be surprised if they run here." Umm…yeah, no one should have been.

— Jaguars Blog (@JaguarsBlog) October 8, 2017
Huh. No empty back sets and some simple runs. What a concept.
— Steel Dad (@SteelDad) October 8, 2017
Fournette motioning for the crowd to get louder is…odd.
— Chris Mueller (@ChrisMuellerPGH) October 8, 2017
The Steelers gave the ball back to the Jags and the defense continued to struggle.
Artie burns dancing all over the field while the refs move the chains lmao
— ⱼₐₛ (@j_a155) October 8, 2017
Only our defense delights and celebrates giving up their 735th first down of a drive 😂😂😂😂

Mike Tomlin Challenge Twitter is the best Twitter.
— Jacob Klinger (@Jacob_Klinger_) October 8, 2017
Not a good challenge by Tomlin.
— Scott Kacsmar (@ScottKacsmar) October 8, 2017
Ridiculous challenge. Nothing is going to change that. Might as well have just called timeout and saved the challenge. Result will be same
— Steelers Wire (@TheSteelersWire) October 8, 2017
Jags are making this look way too easy. Defense struggling to get off field. No spmash plays. Not good enough… SMH
— Brian Dexter (@ky_stee) October 8, 2017
Team once again getting beat in all facets of game. On paper they should be champions but in real life they are average. Hard to understand

The defense finally got off the field thanks to a Vince Williams sack.
The defense needed that in a big way.
— Joy Behar is an awful human being (@CurtPopejoySW) October 8, 2017
Vince Williams sack is welcome pressure for Steelers, who struggled getting pressure on Bortles this drive.
— Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN) October 8, 2017
The offense struggled in a two-minute drill.
Bell got tackled before he caught the ball and that’s not a penalty? He was tackled.
— Josh Rowntree (@JRown32) October 8, 2017
What an atrocious half of football. Whew.
— Chris Mueller (@ChrisMuellerPGH) October 8, 2017
This Steelers offense is AWESOME!!!
— SuckMeter (@SuckMeter) October 8, 2017
There is no excuse for this offense to suck this much. This is a recording.
— Adam Gretz (@AGretz) October 8, 2017
Heinz field fans are not happy right now as they boo loudly
— Charlie Batch (@CharlieBatch16) October 8, 2017
Another awful punt at an inopportune time for Jordan Berry. He specializes in this.
— Ray Fittipaldo (@rayfitt1) October 8, 2017
The script got flipped when Ryan Shazier took the ball away from a Jags receiver.
Ryan Shazier….JUST STOLE the football…

Two big plays got us into field goal range.
Ramsey tackling like Mitchell on that one #HereWeGo #SNUProud

We'll take the points.
Wizard of Boz FG is goodSteelers – 6
Jaguars – 7— SteelCityBlitz (@SCBlitz) October 8, 2017
The Steelers started the second half by driving down inside the 5, but couldn’t punch it in.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: The Steelers kicked a field goal after a red zone possession
— Purple Monkey Dishwasher (@HayekandHockey) October 8, 2017
Hahahahaha. 3 worst plays called ever 1st and goal from 6 yard line. Garbage.

— Mel (@MelJ740) October 8, 2017
The defense forced a 3-and-out thanks to a clean-up sack from Trent Jordan Watt.
TJ Watt with the sack!! It’s 4th down!!!

Another #Steelers sack…this one by T.J. Watt!
— Missi Matthews (@missi_matthews) October 8, 2017
But Ben threw a pass right to a Jags defender who ran it in for 6. And then another.

Pittsburgh Steelers just can't think logically or rationally:
JAC #1 pass D
JAC #32 run D
Ben: 33 attempts (2 INTs, 52 RTG)
Bell: 12 carries— Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) October 8, 2017
Since 2014, #Steelers 14-12 vs teams .500 or worse. Avg eight fewer pts than vs teams >.500, have -7 TO differential. (Not counting today)

WOW Fournette waiving to Mike Mitchell to invite the hit while running at him. That is amazing.
— Mike Clay (@MikeClayNFL) October 8, 2017
Mike Mitchell talking trash after Fournette just ran for 12 yards and another first down is a good snap shot of what is wrong with this team

Team is done today. Heart is gone. I'm looking at Tomlin, Ben and Haley. Disgusting. I'll stay on to read the excuses for Ben and Tomlin.
— Dane (@Urunderarrest) October 8, 2017
Somewhere in there, Mike Tomlin decided the Steelers hadn’t done enough losing today, so he wanted to lose another challenge.
tomlin desperation challenge. bad intel.

Tomlin is going to lose his second challenge. Not a good day all around for #Steelers

Really funny Pittsburgh sports jokes:
