We did get smoked. The Steelers were outplayed, out-coached and out hustled. That was as bad a loss as I have seen in the Tomlin era. The game was not as close as the score. It was a complete head scratcher.

No, you're right, I was talking about season ticket holders dumping their tickets below face value.

You're welcome. I don't mind the city of Baltimore. People are people. It's good for all the Ravens fans dumping their tickets. They've been losing money up until this week.

Well, ticket prices are staying up.

Okay, that was some funny stuff. "Hit Big Ben over the head with Ryan's Mallett." LOL

The Hawks have won four straight road games...not an easy feat no matter what teams they were...because my kids are Hawks fans, I watch every one of their games. They are playing at a high level right now. Russell Wilson has had an historic month at QB. Remember, a 9-7 Giants team knocked off the unbeaten Patriots in the SB. Its not how you start a season, its how you finish. The Hawks certainly have the capacity, the experience and the momentum to beat the Panthers or Cardinals.

LOL! Cause everyone in Baltimore totally approves of every move Harbaugh makes? Pound that rock, baby!

Except that they will probably be playing the Seahawks.

We had a great time and honestly, felt welcomed. People around us asked about the city of Seattle and wished my son luck for the rest of the season. They treated him very well. Late in the game, the Hawks fans were chanting and the hard core Ravens fans who were left booed loudly to drowned out the opponents celebration. I respect that. One funny moment happened when the Hawks scored their final touchdown. My son was cheering and an inebriated fan said, "What are you celebrating? You are beating a 4th string team." Everyone in the area had a good laugh. Clausen actually played pretty well for only being around for a couple weeks.

What? Steeler fans obnoxious? Thanks for the input!

Okay, so my job took me to Seattle for many years. I had two sons born there. They are big Hawks fans. (Yes, they gave it too me bad a couple weeks ago!) I am bringing one of my sons to the game as a Christmas present. No, I will not be sporting any Steeler gear. I have been to a few games at the Bank in my Steeler stuff...took a brutal verbal beating with a lot of drunken F-Bombs. Especially the year right after Ben's Georgia fiasco. (Yes, I was at the "No means no" game!) Is it just Steeler fans who get this royal welcome? What kind of response will a teenager in Hawks gear get from the hometown fans?

And one less if Scobee could kick.

That used to be true...but not in todays NFL.

No pass interference calls and most of those long passes have been dropped right in the bread basket. The reason steeler fans say that is how many times Joe's long drives include at least to PI's and one for about 40 yards. Probably some perception on our part...but thats where it comes from.

Ya, dozens.....

That return set up the TD drive.

Ben isn't close to retiring.

Ya, but 3-8 since 2002.

Agree, Two NY teams and the Ravens punch them in the mouth, even if they lose the game. I hate how our guys crawl under a rock when we play them. I blame Tomlin. I think he is mostly a good coach but has a couple weaknesses, the Pukes are one of them.

I have to be honest. Why is it that every team in the NFL except the Ravens seems to just lay down for these guys? Geez. Dolphins scored at will last week and come out and play like garbage tonight. I hate the Cheatriots.

I won't let it go to my head!

Actually, three Ravens fans agreed with this post. New Record! I love the Steelers vs Ravens rivalry and so do most NFL fans and commentators. Its better for football when we are both tough, angry and winning!

Honestly, Its not like you guys are that far off. Ravens will be back.

Ben should be back for that one, but I don't think Cincy is shaking in their boots. That team is for real.
