Mike Tomlin will not entertain the notion that Sunday's showdown in Jacksonville Nicklas Backstrom Jersey is a trap game for the , the 's last unbeaten team. While some may already be looking ahead to Pittsburgh's Thanksgiving Day game with Baltimore, Tomlin's team is dialed in on the , a 1-8 outfit that has not one a game since defeating the back in Week 1. The Jaguars have played much better over the past two weeks, however, losing a two-point game to the Texans before falling to the Packers on the road last Sunday, 24-20."We understand what we're going into in Jacksonville," Tomlin said earlier this week. "That's a group that's trying to kick our butt. A profe sional group. A capable group. And we're preparing with that understanding."Tomlin's praise of the Jaguars did not affect the oddsmakers' decision to make his team a 10-point favorite for Sunday's game, according to William Hill Sportsbook. Six of our eight CBS Sports NFL experts , while each of our experts have picked the Steelers to win while improving to 10-0.Before we breakdown Sunday's game Dale Hunter Jersey , here's how to follow the action in real time. Date:Sunday, Nov. 22|Time:1 p.m. ETLocation:TIAA Bank Field (Jacksonville, Florida)TV:CBS|Stream:Follow:For a team that has yet to lose a game, there's been a lot of chatter in Pittsburgh this week about the Steelers' struggles in the running game. Despite having former Pro Bowl running back at their disposal, the Steelers have rushed for le s than 50 yards as a team for three straight weeks. Expect Pittsburgh to try to establish its running game early against Jacksonville's 24th ranked run defense.While they will look to establish the run, that doesn't mean the Steelers will hit the pause button on a pa sing game that has been one of the NFL's best this season. is the reigning AFC Offensive Player of the Week after throwing for 333 yards and four touchdowns in last Sunday's 36-10 win over the . Pittsburgh's receiving corps has been led by (54 catches, 516 yards, five touchdowns), rookie (35 catches, 500 yards, seven touchdowns), (37 receptions, 426 yards, four touchdowns) and tight end (31 catches, 323 yards, three touchdowns). The Steelers are all too familiar with Jaguars linebacker , who recorded two interceptions against Pittsburgh as a member of the last season. The Jaguars' defense also includes Pro Bowl defensive end , veteran linebacker , and rookies and . While this unit has potential, the Jaguars' lack of experience on defense has shown itself far too often this season. They have tallied just nine sacks through nine games, a bad omen heading into Sunday's game. One area where Jakub Vrana Jersey the Jaguars' defense has done well is on third down, as they are currently 10th in the league in red down efficiency.Tomlin spoke at length about the respect he has for Jaguars rookie running back , who is coming off of a 109-yard effort in the Jaguars' 24-20 lo s to the last Sunday. Robinson, who went undrafted , is the NFL's fifth-leading rusher through nine games."I cannot say enough about him and the respect I have for what he has done," Tomlin said of Robinson, . "I read something this morning that he has run for more yards than any undrafted rookie in the history of our game to this point in his rookie season. That says it all." The Jaguars' offense will again be led by rookie quarterbackJake Luton, a sixth-round pick who threw for 304 yards in his first career start. He was le s succe sful against the Packers last Sunday, however, throwing for just 169 yards while completing just over 50% of his pa ses. Not surprisingly, Luton's favorite target has been receiver DJ Chark, who recorded a season-high 146 Brett Connolly Jersey receiving yards against the in Week 9. Likely drawing the a signment of covering Chark will be Pittsburgh cornerback , a three-time Pro Bowler who disrupted several of pa s attempts last Sunday. If Chark draws too much attention from Pittsburgh's defense, Luton will likely turn to , who caught Luton's second career touchdown pa s against the Packers. Cole also scored on a 91-yard punt return.Lutton, who was sacked five times during his first two starts, will face a Steelers defense that currently leads the NFL in sacks and forced turnovers. Pittsburgh's defense, led by defensive linemen and , linebackers T.J. Watt and , and defensive backs Haden and , did not allow a single third down conversion during last week's win over Cincinnati. Latest Odds: Pittsburgh Steelers -10.5 This game appears similar to the one the Steelers took part in two weeks ago. A Dennis Maruk Jersey double-digit road favorite, Pittsburgh started slow before rallying to defeat a team that was playing without starting quarterback . As was the case then, expect the Steelers to win an ugly game against a Jacksonville team that has played significantly better football over the past two weeks despite the absence of quarterback . Specifically, look for Pittsburgh's defense to come up with several turnovers that will shift the game in the Steelers' favor. Score: Steelers 24, Jaguars 13
