Jaguars stun Steelers 45-42 to earn trip to AFC title game

Jacksonville scored six touchdowns and ended Pittsburgh's Super Bowl dreams with a 45-42 victory in an AFC divisional playoff game Sunday at Heinz Field.

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger threw TD passes to Le'Veon Bell, Martavis Bryant and Antonio Brown, who played for the first time since he suffered a calf injury against New England Dec. 17.

The Jags had four rushing TDs — three by Leonard Fournette and one by T.J. Yeldon — to go along with Blake Bortles' 14-yard scoring pass to Tommy Bohanon.

Jacksonville's defense also scored a touchdown, with Yannick Ngakoue sacking Roethlisberger and Josh Lambo picking up the fumble and taking it into the end zone.

Josh Lambo added a late field goal to seal the victory for Jacksonville.

The third-seeded Jaguars (12-6) will face top-seeded New England next week in Foxborough, Massachusetts, after jumping on Pittsburgh early, then holding on late. Jacksonville raced to a 21-point lead, fended off a Steelers rally and responded every time Pittsburgh (13-4) challenged.
