Who Are You Rooting For In The Skins/steelers Game?

[Lets_Go_Joe]

wow only 8 to 7, Skins definitely, we need not worry about the skins until the super bowl if need be. We need the squealers to lose as many games as they can.

I'll never root for the Steelers, ever!!!!!!

Defensively theres not much disparity.[/quote]

I don't think anywhere in my post I said the Ravens offense is better than anyone in the NFC East.

Second, no one in the league can run on us. Dallas, Washington and Philadelphia's best friend/biggest weapon is their running attack. No Portis, Redskins suck. No Westbrook, Eagles suck. No Barber and Felix Jones, Dallas Sucks.

Third, not much disparity between defenses? There is a pretty big difference. Overall defense, Baltimore is 2nd while NY is 4, Washington is 6, Philadelphia is 7 and Dallas is 10, but if you look closer at the numbers, there is a big difference. Baltimore's pass defense allows around 20 yards less per game against all four teams. We've averaged one less touchdown per game throwing the ball against all four teams. We allow 64 yards rushing a game, the second place team(Minnesota) allows 70. The Redskins allows 82, the closest NFC East team. So Baltimore KILLS the NFC East when it comes to stopping the run. Opposing rushers average 2.8 YPC, Washington is 3.8, Philly is 3.5 and Dallas is 3.9 so thats about a yard average and finally we have allowed only 16 first downs by rushing. Washington has allowed 37, Philadelphia 32 and Dallas 42.

Looking at those numbers, Baltimore has a BIG advantage defense wise against the 4 NFC East teams. There are countless other stats I didn't put down because I do have a life lol. One of the few noticeable sections where Baltimore is behind in is sacks. Interceptions, I believe we have the same as Philly, one more than Washington and 6-7 more than Dallas.

Balt @Clev,thats going to be a good game.

Yep I`m looking forward to that game.Hopefully the Eagles and Raven will be at full strength(healthy)

Was`nt the last time the Eagles played the Raven it ended up in a tie(10-10)?

I believe in `96.

[march4superbowl]

Skins, duh-- Then once we beat the steelers we should win the division.

Last time we played the eagles was in 2004, the Eagles won that game. In 1997 we tied the Eagles. That is the only tie in our franchise history. Eagles are 1 of 3 teams that the Ravens have never beat. So this is a great year to cut that list to two.

[pick-ups]

Philly has 7 more sacks than the Ravens and the Eagles defense allows 3 points more a game but,they also score 9 more a game.

We`ll just have to wait and see when they meet.

Just because people think the steelers will WIN doesnt mean they WANT them too, It just means they are facing facts. No doubt.. I HATE THE STEELERS WITH A PASSION. BUT i can't lie and say they are a HORRIABLE team because i'd be lying

But the poll was "Who are you rooting for in the Skins/Steelers games."

Of course I was only kidding though. I know there aren't any closet Steelers fans in here. It was the irony that made it funny...., to me.

So what you're saying is that I voted in the Poll to root against the Steelers? I think you've reached an all time low in the cheap tricks department.

Well, I'd demand a recount, but the Steelers are doing pretty well against the skins so I'll wait it out and see how it ends. I can always make the "hanging C.H.A.D." appeal later. You don't happen to be from Florida do you?

Let me chime in, If the Steelers were not in our division...Pitt all the way, It's really tough though. I have H8ed the SKINS FOR FAR LONGER THEN PITT. Have to be HARBS with it though, Whats Important Now. Steelers hopefully get cracked. Campbell hasn't thrown a pic all year, he is shaping up to be a good QB.

I obviously can't blame you that. Like I said, Last year when you guys were no threat to over take us in the division and the Patsies came to town, I was a Ravens fan for 3 hours.

We may have some riffs between us, but yes...that was a disgusting time for both of us on both accounts.
My buddy and I never, ever talk about that EVER! I was a (eh-hem) closet Steeler's fan.
