    Joe Flaco worries me less than ever next week

    seriously, it seems like the man is regressing. Rice is another story, no matter how better our D is playing

    I am not worried one bit about Flacco. If anything, he'll cost the Ravens big in Heinz Field.

    It's a primetime game in PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA! THE RAVENS DON'T WIN THAT SHIT!

    Let the DBs loose. Hope the OLBs get healthy. Our D line will make an impression for all the chop blocks in week 1. Really looking forward to this game. Too bad it is Sunday night. Too long to wait.

    Honestly, Joe Flacco might not come back out after halftime. I have a feeling he's going to be fearing for his life.

    Wow.

    I think we have the momentum and I think we will be up for this game.

    I love how our team is developing this year but I still think it could be a very tough win.

    If Ben is firing on all cylinders I think we will win.

    Re: It's RATBIRD Week again !!

    The Steelers slayed their demon today, now it's time to slay the other one. We owe the Ratbirds a beatdown and showing them we still run this bitch. I'm not really bothered by them winning today. It has more to do with Arizona failing to finish them off than whatever Baltimore did.

    The Ravens bread and butter is Ray Rice. The success of their offense is run on him. Contain Ray Rice and dare Flacco to beat you. The Rats D will be tough as usual and will keep the game close of course.

    Honestly, I'm more concerned about how many points our Offense can put up. Today was a great win, but if it was a shoot out we'd have been toast. Still too many Suishim Fg attempts.

    Re: It's RATBIRD Week again !!

    This game, as pretty much all of them over the past decade or so, will be hard fought by both teams. We all know the defenses are going to bring it 150%. It will boil down to which offense is clicking the best. In Game One, it was the Ravens offense that shined. Now it's halfway through the season and some guys are hurting and/or missing from both teams. It normally comes down to less than seven points at the end of the game.

    Due to the past few weeks, I have to give the edge to Pittsburgh as far as QB play is concerned. I will never sit here and tell you that Flacco is in the top-tier of QB's in the NFL, but while he has been "good", he does look like he has regressed since the season began. Why I don't know. If he plays like he did in the first half of the Cardinals game, Steelers win. If he plays like he did in the second half, it will be a contest.

    I was just about to make me a CD with his greatest jams on it... lol. I'm still waiting to see Antonio "Brown" break out in a James's move's as opposed to that Spanish trot thing he does when he scores a TD... lol.

    But the Steelers need to bring it to those A-holes this week !

    The ravens defense is the best in the nfl right now....This defense has no weakness at the moment.

    For the Steelers defense, if he stops Ray Rice(run and pass) and they put pressure on Flacco, the Steelers defense will have a big day!

    Actually, I want the Joe Flacco from the Jags game, the one that couldn't hit the broad side of a barn if he was standing an inch away from it. But you're right though - this will be another tough, physical game that we all expect in this rivalry. The Ravens won't catch the Steelers off-guard this time like they did in week 1, either. I expect both teams to bring it, because 1st place is on the line. I just think that right now, the Steelers have the edge and should win this game. Notice I said "should." There's always the chance of a letdown after winning a huge game against a team that has owned you over the years.
