Going into the CCs, this was a possible Super Bowl matchup that I, and I’m sure most of you, would have found intriguing. Two defense-heavy squads. Thinking of these two reminds me of the Bucs/Titans ’99 what-if SB. I’d guess Jags winning at Steelers again and playing NE close while Vikes miracled their way past Saints then get destroyed at the Linc may cause enough of us to pick Jags in a hypo-modern-day Playoff Bowl between these two.

Two points -

1. I'm always a fan of first time winners, so for me it would've been great to see Minn vs. Jack SB matchup. Being a relatively young franchise, it would be a proud moment for the Jags with a win. For Minn, a SB win would've turned the tide on all the SB losses and that Minn finally broke through.

2. I think the Steelers would beat the Jaguars in another contest. Pitt was a few plays away from winning. When the game is that close, it could really go either way and I liked the Steelers chances.
