Looks like steelers fans are noticing how we didn't 'take a step back' like all the analysts are saying but look even better then last year.

I am as confident in our abilities as anyone but lets not get cocky about it. Its just the preseason. Until we look good when it really matters, we havent done anything impressive or worth mentioning.

LOL. That was ONE GUY. haha.

But if you need to hear it, you guys have a good defense. No one can question that.

Wait until the games count.

The only way Steeler fans get concerned is ether Big Ben gets hurt or Troy Polamalu gets hurt

[liljj19968]

Are D is going to always be good untill we lose Ray Lewies And ED Reed.

Have to say, those guys over there seem like a knowledgeable, reasonable crew. They give credit where it's due, and talk up their team without coming off as arrogant.
Although I disagree with the point he was attempting to make, I especially liked the one poster who broke down all 15 run plays, giving the yardage gained on each play, and where the run went.

Like I've always said to myself and fellow football watchers, you must have a mutual respect for how the Steelers and the Ravens play football. It's not the prettiest games in the world but if you are a fan of either team or good quality football that's going to be close, watch these two teams.

I don't think fans are scared but just have an understanding that we are getting better and that's where the football fan comes in.

I wanted the Ravens to pound the Jets last night but I loved the way that Leon Washington was running in that game. It's football season. You have to love it!

Good post.

I believe will will split the games this year, I would like to think each team gets their home game this year. I am very confident in Flacco leading this offense and the defense getting the kinks worked out before the Cheifs come to town.

I only saw a couple guys giving credit...the rest were like the other typical steeler fan whose cocky/over confident and think they can beat any team in the league 99 times outta 100

I'm sure can be siad about a lot of us Ravens fans. I mean most people here thing we have the best backup QB in the league and he hasn't even proven that.

You have the same amount of knowledgable fans in Pittsburgh as Baltimore. I'm sure they have the same amount of fans that think being negative about everything makes them realist. So you r gonna find some A-holes in every group.

I hate the Steelers. However I don't hate them just because I live in Baltimore, I hate them because I respect the way they play the game. They play like us and we play will them. Its a thin line between respect and hate and I cross it twice a year.

As for them being scared. I say no, the games have to be played. That would be the same as us being scared over all the Bengals hype. Are any Ravens fans scared of them being the surprise team?

Like it or not the Steelers set the standard in the Divison. We have the talent to overtake this divison, but until we do, they are top dog.
The Steelers are the defending champs, so they will get everyones best shot every week. So for those fans that might be nervous over our preseason performance, I'd tell them to get thicker skin because they will see much better perfomances once the season stars.

I showed a lot of respect to the Steelers in this post, so I'll finish up by saying this....

You Bet Your Sweet ****** I Hate The Steelers.

[Purple Pain]

I can't believe a Steeler fan is complaining about not getting enough love from commentators, when all they do during Steeler games is talk about how good the Steelers are and almost root for them during games.

[reediddy]

They better be scared, I really think their defense slighhtttlllyy downgraded, and their OL has always been BS. I call a sweep

[J-man]

Finally, some respect, that's all I want.

Well, not all, wins would be nice too.

And a better running game than the Steelers. Once we get our passing game going, look out

[BloodRaven]

When they catch wind of this watch the retractions.

It's quite weak really, scanning back and forth between boards. I suppose it makes for amusement and debate now and again.

[SaVaGe]

I do love how Flacco is a one year wonder when he put up similar numbers compared to Roethlisburger in his first season other then TD ratio. Go check it out it is fairly funny though because Roethlisburger faced the same criticism his first year as well.

[smashmouth]

You have to respect the steelers, we are there little brother. Like it or not, we have become to play, draft and do everything there way. When we drafted Oher this year, it was because they was thinking of James Harrison will wreck havoc if we dont draft a better tackle.

The Steelers and Ravens are now the Best rivelery in the NFL, its no secret. They thumped us last year and now this year we are out to prove a point. It's just like in 2006 when we destroyed them in both games. They came back the next year(2007) and took advantage on our poor beat up injured team, and there was no stopping them, they was out for payback.

The Steelers suck anyways, i'll take my beatings they put on us last year and come back to give them something better this year.Pull a 2006 on them
