Leonard Fournette

The Jacksonville Jaguars played in one of the ugliest playoff games in NFL history last week, a 10-3 win over Buffalo.

On Sunday, facing long odds against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Jags had one of their best offensive teams in team history in a 45-42 triumph to advance to the AFC Championship Game.

Leonard Fournette came out of the blocks on fire on Sunday, scoring two touchdowns in the first quarter and adding a third to help ice the game in the fourth. Fournette's five touchdowns this season in two games against the Steelers marked the most the black and gold have ever conceded to a single player in a campaign.

Though Blake Bortles didn't have his greatest game, his fourth-quarter touchdown pass to Tommy Bohanon put him past his Projected Fantasy Points total as well.

The Steelers struggled to get anything going in the first half, but they went on consecutive touchdown drives to end the first half and start the second half that helped get the Dober Fantasy Points rolling. Thanks to a slew of garbage time points, Ben Roethlisberger, Le'Veon Bell, Antonio Brown, Vance McDonald, Eli Rogers and Martavis Bryant all beat their PFP totals.

Even though it was a rare good game against the No. 1 pass defense in the NFL, the Steelers never got close again after allowing Jacksonville to score on the opening drive of the game.
