JAGS OVER THE STEELERS 23-17 IN OVERTIME!




MATT JONES WATCH

First, for all the family back in Arkansas, the rookie Matt Jones had two great catches in the game this week as the Jags beat the Steelers in overtime. The CBS announcer called this one an "amazing catch" when Matt caught the ball with one hand. Pittsburgh challenged the ruling on this play, but after the replay, the ruling stood as a completed catch for a touchdown. It was a good game for the former Arkansas Razorback's quarterback-turned-pro wide receiver.

PITTSBURGH -- The Jaguars reveled in the sound of silence on Sunday.
When Rashean Mathis jumped a Tommy Maddox pass in overtime and starting dashing toward the end zone, the boisterous Pittsburgh crowd at Heinz Field Sunday suddenly went silent. The fans stopped waving their Terrible Towels.
"We ended up silencing the crowd and that's what you want to do in a big road game,'' Mathis said after his 41-yard interception return for a touchdown with 3:36 elapsed in overtime gave the Jaguars a 23-17 victory over the Steelers.
