Trots Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Had a few beers tonite with Yanda, Bannon and ex-center Flynn. Ravens are looking to shock the world and go 3-0 in the division. The Steelers are banged up and will not be able to handle the pass rush. 6 sacks in one quarter against Philly? I think Ben remembers Bart Scott and the pain that was administered.

Flip_Side Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I actually think the Ravens have a chance after that poor showing against Philly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Any team on any given Sunday...except the Rams that is. However, Joe Flacco will be the undoing of any real chance that the Ravens have in this game. Rookie QB's, away from home, facing a defense that will come from so many different angles and Flacco will look like last weeks version of Big Ben.

Menudo Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 (edited) Since, deep down, you know this division lead won't last, I don't blame you for enjoying it while it's here. The Steelers aren't as good as some have been saying the first two weeks. However, they are still the best team in this AWFUL division. This Pittsburgh newspaper writer said it best: Edited September 23, 2008 by Menudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belushi Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I'm not a Ravens fan, but I had a tough time picking the Steelers to win this week. That offensive line is not good, and after seeing what the Baltimore D has done in the first few weeks I'm not sure the Steelers can win this one. The Baltimore offence stinks, but that D will keep them in games and they may be able to run enough on the Steelers to win this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you noticed what the Steelers defense has done in the first three games ? They are pretty good, and at home, a rookie QB might have his work cut out for him. The Steelers O-Line is garbage, but, I still think they take this one at home. That is why they play the games though, we will find out on Sunday.

jjpro11 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 go ahead.. write the steelers off. first cleveland was supposed to win the division, now baltimore.. if the bengals can string together a couple wins, they are the new favorites.

Grant37 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 There is no way a rookie QB comes in to Heinz field and beats that Steeler D. Sorry Ravens fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 It's not as if this was the first time the Steelers took a physical beating. It wasn't even two years ago that they went to Baltimore and were spanked, 27-0, on a day when Roethlisberger was sacked nine times, once so hard by linebacker Bart Scott that Scott bragged afterward about feeling the air rush out of Big Ben's body. That was quite a hit - check out the avy. I was at the game and was very worried for Ben's health after that hit as he lay on the field.
