I know I am here super early, but I am so excited. :bananalama:Christmas day, Heinz Field, AFC North Title at stake, playoff berth at stake. It doesn't get any bigger than this. Here we go! :crossed::pop2:

The only guy listed as out is Shamarko Thomas, every one else is questionable to doubtful.

This is it. No more bullshit. Whoever loses this game is fucked. The AFC North is not going to send a second team to the AFC playoffs this year.

Its very simple. If the Steelers win, they win the AFC North.

If the Steelers cannot beat the Ravens in a meaningful game and end up missing the postseason next week, then they don't deserve to be there. You gotta win these games. Here and now.

Must wine. Can no lose.

We have Green out, Coates out, DHB out, Wheaton out, Heyward out...I mean we have a lot of players who are out.

In days like these, I am reminded of the great line from Home Alone 4 when the butler said, "one can never go wrong with low expectations."
Here is my actual prediction: Steelers will jump out to a 14-0 lead. 2 TD passes from Ben to Brown. Flacco will be sacked a couple of times in the first. At the half, it will be 17-7 steelers. Then in the 3rd it will be 20-14 when Roethlisberger throws a game changing interception. In the 4th, with 4 minutes to go flacco TD pass to Pitta. Steelers drive for a GW FG attempt with 5 seconds left. BLOCKED. Basically, this game will be a re-worked version of last year's Scobbee game.

The worst thing with Green being out is that the Ravens only LB that could cover a TE is CJ Mosely. And he has the speed and athleticism to cover Jesse James easily. But if we would have had Green this game, CJ would have had to try and stay with him, and with a two TE set with James...the Ravens would have had no one that could cover him. And Grimble....he is even less athletic then James is speed wise.

Inactives:

No. 14 - WR Sammie Coates
No. 18 - QB Zach Mettenberger
No. 24 - CB Justin Gilbert
No. 69 - T Brian Mihalik
No. 89 - TE Ladarius Green
No. 91 - DE Stephon Tuitt
No. 95 - LB Jarvis Jones

Green and Tuitt being out really sucks.

We get DeAngelo back, though. Run him and line up Bell at receiver.

These games are impossible to predict. Charlie batch beat the Ravens and Ryan Mallet beat the Steelers.

That said. I wouldn't be surprised if this went into OT. It's Christmas with the best rivalry in the NFL.

enjoy it.

I have no doubt that some of Baltimore's Old time Vets, like Suggs will get the younger guys pumped up early on. But, barring any mistakes by us early on...I think we just wear them down.



Pittsburgh- 27

With DHB back, I bet with his speed we will send him out a lot on deep routes, not only to test the Ravens weakened secondary, but to also be a decoy to open things up for the others. Could be a big help today.

I didn't mean it from a racial point. More of a Hip-Hop point. The Ravens are more in the Hip[Hop culture. Like a lot of these analysts who were players not long ago. I have seen this on many other NFL shows and on websites. They are not taking a look at all at the numbers, or the Match-ups. Just at the recent history. Not taking into account the rash of Injuries to KEY players as compared to them.

1) Ravens won the last four games against Pittsburgh. Last meeting wasn't that close.
2) Harbaugh has developed a recent habit of pulling rabbits out of the hat recently against Pittsburgh and outcoaching Tomlin (beating them with Ryan Mallet last year).
3) Baltimore has a pretty good Defense that Ben recently has had a hard time solving.
4) Steelers tendency to disappoint/underwhelm when the spotlight is cast on them. They were 4-5 at one point this year. They've grown wise to our antics.

It's not that farfetched to see them picking the Ravens in a landslide.

If anything, I'm more worried for the Steelers than I am for the Ravens in this game. Despite the winning streak, I'm not getting too hyped, because know this team has a tendency to crash and burn at the worst possible times.

We'll see who comes out on top.

Looking like the Steelers will have to battle the refs on this one. The ref literally threw the flag as Shazier was tackling the guy and they claim "before the flag". Basically Shazier got flagged for running to the ball-carrier

So our guys are supposed to go wait until they catch the ball and gently attempt to push them out? No F'N way. That is a routine play. Ball carrier lowers his head.

Im sick of this ****. If they're gonna get flagged then im all for laying people out. Make it worth it.

Well it's 7-6..although they SHOULD be up 9-7. I just don't get how we can look and be so diverse on offense in our first series, and then look so completely LOST after that. I wanna blame Haley...but I really think it is Tomlin who is over-riding him on some of these calls. Well, we are up yes...but the tenor of the game is certainly in Baltimore's favor.

Bad News: The Steelers are playing godawful and are sleepwalking after that first drive.

Good News: The Ravens seized the momentum all first half but have done absolutely nothing with their opportunities either. They still trail 7-6.

This isn't a rivalry game, this is bad football by both teams really.

One half to go. Great victory or another Tomlin Crash and Burn? We'll see.

It's as much Ben if you ask me.

Hopefully something happens that gets him inspired...even if it is Baltimore going up early in the 3rd.

If we play not lose going into the 4th quarter it could be disastrous.

I know that a lot of people on here like to blame Ben for everything but how exactly is this on Ben? He's thrown the ball 9 times and completed 6 of them. Compare that to Flacco with 22 throws.

est, baltimore will score 17 2nd half points...at worst, probably 7-10. That means we have to score at the least 14 points..maybe 17 to secure this game. I think 21-23 wins it. Obviosly what we do with this opening kick-off will mean a lot. Look, we had several 1st half injuries in Cincy, and we held them scoreless in the 2nd half. So lets see what adjustments we make. Right now, I am still confident.
