Weeks 10-11 will give fans a glimpse of the Jags against two playoff-caliber teams

Weeks 10-11 will be rough for Jacksonville as they travel to Green Bay, then come back home to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Neither will be easy games as the Packers went to the playoffs last season while the Steelers were close.

The Packers have been known to be an offensive powerhouse in the past, but it was their defense that got them to the postseason. They had two double-digit sack edge rushers in Za’Darius Smith (13.5) and Preston Smith (12) who could cause issues for the Jags’ offensive line.

As for the Steelers, the Jags have lost their last three games at TIAA Bank Field against them. Add in the fact that they were ranked fifth defensively, and it appears the Jags’ offense could struggle against their longtime rivals.
